Brief Answer:
You are not at risk.

Detailed Answer:

Hi,

The risk of getting HIV without penetrative sex is very unlikely and fingering, kissing as well as sucking of genitals are no risk activities for HIV so no need to get feared or worried about these exposures because you are not at risk. Be relaxed, forget about the episodes and move on in life.

For any further query feel free to ask me again and I am here to help you out straight way.

Thank you.

Dear XXXX,

Welcome back and thanks for follow-up.

Dizziness and weakness are non specific symptom of HIV so allay the fear or anxiety related to HIV. Be relaxed, forget about the episode and move ahead in life happily as you are not at risk.

It is not a lymph node.

These are not the symptoms of any STD or HIV and the picture you had attached does not look like a boil or vesicle and not a lymph node, so don't get worried or feared. Close this chapter here and move ahead.

Brief Answer:
It might be due to vitamin deficiency.

Detailed Answer:

Hi,

Tiredness, dizziness and weakness might be due to some vitamin deficiency, mostly vitamin B12 for which, consult your physician to isolate the cause and follow advice accordingly.

You need not worry about HIV at all as these symptoms are not due to HIV and you are not at risk of getting the infection.

Hope I have answered your query.

Thank you.
