Pimple on Penis during Sex - Risk of HIV?
Hello everyone.
Recently I have sex with a sex worker with unknown status. I did it with condom, but later I noticed that there was a pimple on my penis. The pimple was red, and could have burst during sex. It was on the penis, near the base, so it could be or could not be covered by the condom during sex. And, because it was on my penis, not on my pubic área, this pimple could be inside the vagina/anus during the time we had sex.
I am very worried. Am I at risk?

No, you were never at HIV risk

Thanks for your response
HIV is fragile and can only infect during penetration through the urethra, and since that was covered by the condom you are safe.
