Should I be worried about HIV? Cunnilingus with slightly burnt tongue

Hello,

3 weeks ago, I gave a woman cunnilingus (it didn't last very long, maybe 2-3 minutes max). Afterwards, I realized that I had forgotten about the fact that I had experienced a slight burn on my tongue from eating something far too hot the night prior to seeing the woman. I also have had a few healed cuts on my tongue (due to my braces)

Now, I have been experiencing a mild fever for a 4-5 days now. My head hurts for a while every now and then and then stops for a little bit before restarting to hurt. My muscles are slightly sore. My throat felt sore for a bit at a corner but it's stopped.

I also have an ulcer/canker sore(I don't know the difference) within my mouth. However, I do believe this one came from my bad eating/sleeping habits recently.

Do you think I should be worried about HIV? Is 1 day enough for a slightly burnt tongue to heal? Does a slightly burnt tongue count as an open wound through which HIV is transmissible when I give cunnilingus? What is an ''open wound'' exactly?

I am well aware that I am asking a lot of questions, but I am pretty worried. Thank you for your time.

It's been about a week or so now since I've had a fever and periodical headaches. What do you think this could possibly? Thank you for your time. I'm still pretty worried. I would get tested to be sure but it's only been 4 weeks

A low grade fever that often comes with the flu or sometimes a cold, would NOT wake you at night, thereby giving you the idea that it did not happen.

You do NOT have HIV.

Let this go.

I see, thanks!

I was mostly worried because the fever would seem to stop at night and resume at mornings..

Oral sex is NOT a risk for HIV.

Sounds like you're getting a cold........NOT HIV

An open wound can be many things.......a knife cut, a laceration from any sharp/jagged object, a surgical incision..........the list is long but there is no mistaking an "open wound."  

A burn from hot food or small abrasions from braces do NOT count as open wounds!

You have nothing to worry about.
