nail salon

[meg4260]

Yesterday I was at a nail salon and the woman was trimming my cuticles and she took a chunk out of one and it started to bleed. Before I sat down I asked if the utensils had been cleaned and she said yes. Her hands were in tact, she even let me look at them. I watched her take out the utensils from a lazor light thingy and she opened a sealed package. I do not think that the towel was clean underneath, but I did not see blood on it. I went to wash my hands and there was a woman next to me washing hers. When I grabed a paper towel there was 2 spots of grenish yellow on it and mymind is telling me that it was blood or puss. When I got cut, I freaked out because I think you all should know that I have a pretty messed up case of obssesive compulsive disorder and a lot of my obsessions are about HIV and germs. I need to know if I should go get tested for this. My mom was with me and shes an RN she told me not to freak out but I'm obviously having a little trouble with that. Please write back anyone who has time. I would love to have some feedback. Thanks so much to those who read this and respond.

I know what it's like to be super obsessed over this. I have an anxiety disorder that is sometimes very severe, I have episodes of panic and dread, often over HIV risk from everyday life. My advice to you is to talk to someone about your anxiety. Try to treat the cause, not the symptom, because you can miss out on a lot of life.

Move on. You were never at risk.

I’m also worried about same.  during shaving I was got lot of cuts. The barber then did massage on the cuts with cream. Things need to be take in to account
1. My skin was not intact it was bleeding
2. He did massage with bare hands.
Please let me know about your opinion friends.
