Is it possible to get ARS rashes after 10 months of risky sex

Hi,

In March this year I had a risky encounter with a prostitute. She started rubbing my penis on her vagina, before I had put on a condom. There was no penetration (I am fairly sure) and in any case this rubbing lasted 10-15 seconds max.

So this evening I noticed a cluster of red dots (most likely ringworms), appear on the chest. So I thought is it possible these are related to that sex. Havent had fever or sore throat in the past 3 weeks as far as I remember.

Its going to be nearly 10 months since the sex, so is it possible for ARS to show up so long after the sex. (10 months on the 8th of Dec.)

It looks like you posted your question in a few places and got a pretty good answer in the HIV forum.  The rash isn't ARS and you had no risk with the situation you described.  If the rash is bothering you, do go to see a doctor for treatment of the rash.
