Red Dots On Arms

I had unprotected sex with a new partner about five weeks ago and I recently developed about ten small red dots on my arms. They are pretty spaced apart but they are on both arms and a few on my back. I have a history of dry skin and dermatitis issues but I'm still somewhat concerned about the HIV rash. Is this description at all indicative of something I should be concerned about? How does the rash usually manifest?

10 small red dots are NOT indicative of an ars rash.

Your rash has nothing to do with ARS. Test at 3 months for a concluisve result.
