razor from store
i recently bought a razor from the store and shaved my legs and pubic region with it. i realized that the package had been slightly opened beforehand, though seemingly not enough for someone to have been able to take the razor out and put it back in again. i don't think i cut myself with the razor. i am wondering what the possible risk is? i'm scared because a couple days afterwards my lymph nodes seemed swollen.
Either you are uneducated about HIV, have phobias, or both. Either way...HIV is NOT transmitted from environmental surfaces, period, end of story...even if someone DID "sabatoge" your razor (LOL).
If you sincerely believe that these kinds of things are "risky" in terms of HIV, then seek some professional help, as your thinking is totally irrational.

Come on...you think someone took out the razor who is HIV+ pured blood all over it then put it back in, but it looks clean and then you used it?
so you really don't think there is anything to worry about, even on the off chance that someone might have taken it out?
