Do I have a risk of HIV

I had Oral sex and protected Vaginal sex with two different CWS in two days. After 11 days I had a dark red rash all over my chest. The rash was not bulge over my skin and would fade by pressing. I had a sore throat and after 1 day it cured by taking some medicine. I got a fever and my highest body temperature is 100 ℉. I also cough and had a running nose.
Now, I'm very anxious. 1.Do I have the possibility of having HIV? 2.Does my symptom matches the HIV acute symptoms? 3.Do I need a HIV test?

Other conditions besides HIV cause a rash. HIV is transmitted by unprotected sex, you used a condom and it didn't break you had no risk. If you are still worried and want a peace of mind test go and have one following your countries guidelines for testing times.

Do you mean that both unprotected oral sex and protected vaginal sex are no risk of hiv?

No risk, symptoms aren't a reliable way to diagnose HIV, it sounds like you have a cold to me. ARS symptoms may include a rash, sore throat and fever.
I don't think testing is necessary from what you have described.

But according to your answer, I have all of ARS symptoms. As you said, I may have a cold. I know that cough, running nose and fever may coursed by cold. But how to explain the body rash?
