worried i have been exposed
about 5 nights ago i got really drunk and walking home from a friends party when i was aproached by a prostitute. I had sexual intercourse with her with a condom for about a minute, then she gave me oral without a condom. im really worried becuase after i noticed she had small bruise like marks over her body and on her hands and one on her face. i later discovered that my penis had been marked buy her teeth and was redish in the morning with small cuts. I have read alot about oral being low risk but i have now discovered a red like bruise on my forearm. i never normally bruise there. i know i have been really stupid and im now stuck with extreme aniexty over it. i dont know if anbody can help me by replying cos i have googled very single posiablity concerning this. i guess i just want somone to talk to. plss reply thk u :)
Whatever it is, it has nothing to do with HIV. If you remain concerned, see your doctor.
well im thinking its not a bruise now becuase its not changing colour, i know how my body works and this doesnt look like how i normally bruise. maybe its a rash ?
1. You had no risk. You cannot get HIV without having a risk.
2. A bruise is a bruise. Without this anxiety you're having, you wouldn't even have noticed it.
3. Brusing is not an ARS symptom.
Move on, you have nothing to worry about.

No ARS and No risk.It's just a plain old bruise,don't over think the situation.You're safe.
just to update the bruise/ rash on my forearm has not gone away or faded. i know my body and i know it is usual for me to bruise there. i keep praying it will turn yellow and disappear then i can just dissmiss it as a simple bruise. but its not going away? ars possibly ?
Well please be assured that if this is the only incident that of concern to you then you will test negative at 3 months.
You don't need to test but I guess you will for your own peace of mind.

cheers mate, i know theres alot of information out there, google is my worst enemy at the moment lol i guess i just wanted to speak to someone about my concerns. and i feel my mind will never be free until i have a test in 3 months, but hey thats just me lol. thks again
Just to back uo what the others have said this is definitley not a risk, whatever spin gets put on it. You will not get infected by getting blown or engaging in condom protected sex.
Bruises are not signs of a recent HIV infection. Stop micro examining your body there are probably other things you never noticed before because you never paid enough attention.
You did the right thing and used a condom the rest is irrelevant.
