Seborrheic Dermatitis

I think may have gotten this.... I heard HIV can cause... i dont know for sure if i have it but, i have somewhat flaky/ itchy/ red skin... on my cheeks near my nose... My exposure is unprotected oral and protected sex (99% sure the condom didnt break).. this happend dec. 5 2007, i heard the girl was tested positive for hiv, dont know for sure... can this skin problem be caused by hiv... i use a lot of acne creams, i think combining all these creams caused this skin problem, that causes my skin to be dry flaky itchy and red... but do u guys think it can be caused by hiv.?

you used a condom so you have no concern, please stop worrying and move on.

i got it from the derm... ive noticed that it really makes my skin inflammed and dry.. and i was stupid i added some other over the counter creams so i can get rid of the redness/itch/ and bumps caused by the cream the derm gave me... it was a bad idea

i know man... my bad... im just so paraniod... when i saw u say common, it just scared me... ive like lost my sanity with this whole situation

[DavidC12345]

Protected sex is not a risk for HIV, nor is unprotected oral sex. Whatever is going on is not HIV related.
