Can HIV rashes come and go in 5-10 minutes?

I'm having Rashes that come and go within 5-10 minutes. It looks like scratch marks flat and red, it seems to appear when I accidentally scratch my skin or put a pressure for awhile. I had sex with a female that I've met in the club 3 weeks ago. Then after 3 days I started seeing this red marks that normally appears in my arms, back chest when scratch. I'm really anxious and stressed about this. Can someone help me explain this situation. I had protected sex tho.

Hi and welcome. Using condoms is protection against HIV but would be a risk for Herpes, syphilis and HPV. Best to be tested to know for sure.

Hello, just want to ask if HIV rashes itch at all? I had a skin allergies last summer that looks like welts that come and go within 10 minutes. They normally appear in my arms and legs. And now this time I am having the same problem with my skin that itch a lot.  I also have itchiness in my body sometimes. I have started seeing the red marks 3 days after I had sex with this lady, then got really worried because I was having neck pain and shoulder pain 2 days after possible exposure. I am really anxious and stressed right now. Thank you so much

Hiv is not determined by symptoms but by testing. Things like white discharge and a burning while urinating could be a symptom of Gono but with HIV it is only determined by testing.
