ars rash
I had a rash on my upper left leg that looked like a raised burn in a large area. went away but came back exactly 2 weeks later in same spot. never came back again. could this be a rash from being exposed to hiv?
this rash came on 2 years ago . I brushed it off as nothing until I saw a picture of a rash in hiv rashes that looked exactly like the one I had. also the rash that I had was non-itchy
Either way, your description of the rash is not an ARS rash and it would not come on this late in time.
If your last exposure was two years ago then every test will give you the answer you want. I would suggest you to test and be aware of your status. It is very easy to take a test and calm yourself :)
I don't know what the exposure was. I might have been date raped . this happened 2 years ago
Its better not to discuss or go by the symptoms Lindy. If you think that you are exposed to the virus then you can take a duo test 4 weeks after your last exposure. Until then try to keep calm
