Brief Answer:
You dont require HIV testing.
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
It is not possible to recover the photos deleted from an account. As you have always HIV test related questions and seek reassurance, probably it is your anxiety.
I don't think you require an HIV test unless you really got a prick from a suspected HIV infected object like a needle.
I reassure you that there is no HIV risk.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Brief Answer:
Images cannot be recovered after deleting
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
If you are not sure then you have probably not touched the nail. I don't think it was a nail and it can be any thing similar. You are having thoughts of a nail or needle and that is the reason you felt it looked like a nail.
Images which are deleted cannot be retrieved. Had you sent the images for other query or for a fresh query?
