Sebhorriec Dermatitis

I have weekly recurring Sebhorriec Dermatitis in the front of my ears and on my forehead near my hairline.  

I had several risky exposures several years ago.  I think all (insertive and receptive) anal was protected, however, one (insertive) incident may not have been.  Its unclear because I was drunk.

Is this SD a sign of HIV infection?  Is three years post exposure about the time these things start to show up?

Have never been tested.

Listen to Vance go get tested! Everything can be symptomatic depending on individual. It is why we say symptoms are meaningless. Sebbhoreic Dermatis can be due to a lottttttttttttttt of things. Stress is one of them!
