Itchy soles and random itching.

Hi guys,

I have read that random itching, including itchy feet, are symptoms of HIV. May I know when is this particular symptom likely to appear after infection? Would the itching appear within the first week? Or is this an advanced symptom?

Thank you

You never had a risk of hiv transmission from the oral sex encounter,cuts or no cuts.Hiv is not transmitted via oral sex of any kind.Your symptoms therefore are not hiv related.
