Please help! HIV concerned!!
I performed oral sex on my boyfriend who is uninfected of stds as am I. I have been having a sore throat (irritated tonsils & somewhat difficulty swallowing) & I have been tested for stds including hiv & tested negative. I had a dental procedure about a month ago (temporary crown removed & permanent crown placed). I did bleed but I didn't perform oral sex until now which is about a month later. I have no bleeding gums although the lower part of the gum where the crown is, is a little darker red than my normal pink gums. But I have been keeping my mouth clean since then & I have no pain on that specific area. Only other concerns I have are that I have these white lines in the inner corners of my mouth that look like lesions but arent open, bloody, etc. (My doc said it's normal but he didn't really check the area) & I have been having jaw pain for awhile due to teeth in the back of my mouth growing back. (I had my wisdom teeth pulled out when I was younger) & I believe their growing back bc there are teeth growing in the gums. Am I at risk for hiv or other infections in any way ? (I should also note that the sore throat started in April & it was tonsilitis) & the tonsillitis went away eventually but my tonsils still stayed "a bit irritated & a bit swollen)
However, as I mentioned before, I was tested several times for stds including hiv & even herpes but was all negative. Oh & I also been having a white coated like tongue but my doctor said it could be normal but not sure.

This is an HIV forum, and if he doesn't have HIV, he can't give it to you, and we can't guess about other infections. The only sexual risk for HIV is having unprotected, penetrative anal or vaginal sex - with someone who has HIV.
Oral sex isn't a risk, even with your mouth/dental issues.

Thank you very much!
Oral sex dosent put you in a high risk for hiv anyway.
Main concern for hiv are unprotected vagina or anal sex with some one known hiv positive.
