Skin manifestation
I started dating my current boyfriend 4 months ago, and since then i have been getting hives and patches of red rough skin on my elbows and had extremely itchy skin basically everywhere. We have protected intercourse everytime but do engage in unprotected oral both giving and receiving. My question is, are there any early skin sign such as I mentioned above of HIV? We both went to a clinic and got tested a couple days ago for all STDs but I have to wait a couple weeks for the HIV results. Any thoughts would be appreciated!
Being in the medical profession would mean that you are very well informed and know what the modes of transmission for HIV are.Many Hiv experts consider oral sex a zero risk activity for HIV transmission under any circumstance.All the best.
Thanks! I'm educated in the medical profession so in my head I know the risk is very low, but my imagination has been stuck on this for a while.
There was never an HIV risk because you used protection when having penetrative vaginal sex and oral sex is a zero risk activity for HIV transmission so those HIV test results will come back negative.
