Sex with a prostitute

I had protected sex with a prostitute on a Saturday night and on Tues morning my tonsils are swollen with white spots on them. Can you see symptoms of HIV /ARS this soon after?

the reason I am worried even having protected sex is that I have noticed a patch of white dots that look like whiteheads that do pop on my scrotum, does this sound like herpes and if so does that increase the risk of hiv by vaginal fluids coming in contact with this possible herpes?

Thanks all!

Protected sex is ZERO risk on hiv. you might want to consider visiting your doctor for your bumps,swollen tonsils and etc... to find out the cause.

No it doesn,t increase the risk because you had protected sex and the protection didn,t fail you.Hiv transmission occurs inside the body not outside.Your safe from hiv infection and your symptoms are related to some other condition that has nothing to do with hiv.

Doesn't the fact that I have these bumps on my scrotum(possible genital herpes) increase risk of transmission? I now have swollen tonsils with a white coating on them. Im sorry im very worried.

ARS symptoms don't start until 2-3 weeks after exposure.  If you had protected sex (and the condom did not break), there is no worries for HIV.  With regard to other STD, please visit appropriate forum with your questions.  Have a great day and don't worry about ARS/HIV.
