Hi James,

I had mutual masturbation, frottage and fingering in the steam room. my biggest worried was sensitive skin in my butt and thigh because of ezcema. i was scrathing few minute before the exposure and cause bleeding and red/pink large spot. at the same time this guy fingered me bit rough and I'm not sure my anal have cut or not. after two days the exposured i notticed i had cut in my anal.

What is the chance tramission of hiv if his precum contact with my broken skin and assume he has hiv positive with high viral load. Please note this exposure happen in steam room which is similar to the inside of the human body?
