Teak, Nursegirl,

I've got a reply from Loucie on this. Would appreciate your reply to my post. I respect you and your knowledge a lot. Please give an objective and clear reply as a lot is at stake for me.

Thanks,


Hi All,

I am 28 years old male, living in India. I had accidently (with some sharp object on a pillar) got a deep cut near the top of my thumb. I am saying deep because the bleeding was Off and On for more than 1 hour. I had applied bandaid at night and removed it in the morning however it still had the wound there that was healing. For 2-3 days it was paining and then the pain stopped however I could see the small cut that was there on the wound.

6 days post this incident, I picked up a roadside prostitute in my car. I was a little drunk but still in my senses (God's Grace) so did not do any kind of sex. What I did was that I touched (softly rubbed, carrasing) her upper body and legs with my hand for some time.

Here are my worries. I would request you to please help me out since I am married and one ,am feeling extremely guilty about what I did and am not getting the courage to speak to my wife, moreover I want to ensure that she does not suffer because of my foolishnessness. My questions:-

1. How long would such a wound take to cure? As written earlier, it was 6 days post this wound that I carrassed the girl.
2. Although, I do not recall seeing any blood on the wounded thumb, is it possible that a small blood drop from her leg might have got on my thumb.Could it go into the wound that was healing.
3. Do I need to go for a test due to this episode to ensure safety of my partner.

I have been going through the questions in this forum for quite some time and some members like Teak, Lucie, Nurce, Alien etc are doing a great job in educating and counselling people. Hats off to you guys!

Would appreciate clear answers to the above questions.

Thanks,
A worried Indian

I'm sorry, didn't read the title of your post. I'm sure Teak and Nursegirl will answer you in due time. In the meanwhile don't worry, this is NO risk of HIV from this episode.

You had absolutely NO risk of contracting HIV on the basis of this incident.

(1) Irrelevant in context to your risk of contracting HIV.
(2) You touched her legs, breasts, and the general torso region. Zero Risk.
(3) You do NOT require testing. You may practice unprotected sex with your partner.
