A sore throat by itself douse not constitute HIV symptom. You need to have multiple other symtoms Fever, Rash, Severe throat throat to have ARS symtoms.
Dont ever go by symptoms at all. They can be misleading and cause anxaity. Get tested if you think you had an HIV risk.
I took a test so waiting for results. Still interested in knowing though if an hiv caused sore throat could be mistaken for having strep throat. Does anyone here know?
No a sore throat alone would not have anything to do with HIV. If you had a sore throat coupled with a rash, high fever and swollen lymph nodes then those could be symptoms, but also symptoms of a viral infection.
Can never use symptoms or lack of symptoms. And symptoms don't last for 20 days with HIV.
