pubic pimple, dried pimple with puss inside, hiv risk?

hi all, I recently had sex with a sexworke(runknown status, but i assume she was positive) and am worried about possible infection. my encouter was with a condom all the way, mey feras are 1) cna i get hiv from contact with her vagainal fluids if they were to touch the lower end of my penis where the condom does not cover?
2) I had a pimple on my pubic region above my penis, which was dried out about two days prior to my encounter, if vagainal fluids were to come in contact with the pimple would that be a risky situation for infection to take place?
i would appreciate sustanciated answers. my pimple only burst two days after the encounter.

-Sharing IV drug works

no. Hiv can not be transmitted in the open air.

Hi Doc,

I recently had sex with a sexworker(unknown status, but i assume she was positive) and am worried about possible infection. my encounter was with a condom all the way, my fears are 1) can i get hiv from contact with her vagainal fluids if they were to touch the lower end of my penis where the condom does not cover?
2) I had a pimple on my pubic region above my penis, which was dried out about two days prior to my encounter, if vagainal fluids were to come in contact with the pimple would that be a risky situation for infection to take place?
i would appreciate substantiated answers. my pimple only burst two days after the encounter.


i had a pimple which i am not sure if it was open or not during intercourse, visually it looked sealed, but am afraid of the possibility. if it was open but not bleeding would this be a risk? there was no blood that’s for sure. am worried freaking out... .

Unless the head of your penis was covered you are not exposed. You had protected sex. You are safe :)
