HIV

I had a sexual encounter using condom with a hooker, after eighteen days I started to have mild sore throat pain only without any other symptoms.

Does this indicate an HIV positive transimission and after how long can I make a test?

Symptoms are no reliable indications of HIV. You don't have HIV from there.

Is it possible to have single symptom or it must be a combination of symptoms?

By using condom you've totally avoided HIV risk and you thus don't need an HIV testing. Your symptoms have nothing to do with HIV.
