HIV Fear

I had 7 sexual encounters in the past 4 years MSM. protected/unprotected oral sex (getting sucked), sometimes anal but always protected (I was insertive every time). Don't think condom was broken. Can it go unnoticed. There was no prior risk & I had tested 4 years back as negative.

Recently I saw  mild skin issues under nose, back of neck and back of left ear. It my be seborrheic dermatitis. No other symptoms. Is it possible it is indication of HIV. can it show as early as 3-4 years in case of HIV and is it possible if its the only symptom? I am not sure if its S. dermatitis or eczema/dry skin.

Last week I gave oral sex to a guy. No cum but some precum. He said he is neg and tested in December. After I spitted and also rinsed my mouth. I don't think I had any cuts or sores but had slight dry mouth. Is this a risk?

I am thinking of testing 6 weeks post the last exposure but the dermatitis is making me anxious. Do you think I am stressing too much & should expect a negative result based on the exposure

The only sexual risk is having unprotected anal/vaginal intercourse.  You never had a risk for HIV. Whatever is causing your dermatitis has nothing to do with HIV, but see a doctor if it concerns you.
