Had Massage For Penis. Applied Lotion On Penis Before Massage. Chances Of HIV?

Hello
Detailed Answer:
Welcome to XXXXXXX
You got massage from a massage parlor and they used lotion bottle that touched the shaft of penis. If we think theoretically then there is no risk of transmission of HIV virus from any inanimate object. If you didnt have any visible injury on your penis then there is no risk of transmission.
But any minor chance should not be left overlooked. In massage parlors the lotion are being applied on penis in erected state and individual remain excited through out message. In excited state penis secretes pre-cum or penis secretions. These secretions can carry HIV virus. In common massage parlors the bottles are cleaned properly each time and they are refilled again and again after cleaning only. In some each time disposable bottle is used. I would advise you to please check from the parlor about the levels of hygiene and mode of precautions being followed in parlor.
Most likely they might be using separate bottles each time and if that is not the case then they might be cleaning the bottles each time.
I would like to tell you that the chances of spread in such case is almost nil but still to be on safer side you can check any injuries on your penis and if possible enquire from massage parlor.
Hope this helps you, if you have more questions you can ask again.
Thanks


Hello again
Detailed Answer:
If you were not having any injury to penis then there is no risk of transmission. She was wearing gloves so probably other hygiene conditions were also good at that center. Best is to avoid thinking about this again as this will cause stress only. If possible enquire from massage parlor about use of bottle.
Thanks, you can ask again if you have more queries.


I think i ll be in stress for few more days before i forget this incident . Shall i do a test after month ?
Hello
Detailed Answer:
You can go for test after one month in order to get relieved from your stress and tension.
Still if you are having a little thing in mind about poor hygiene and contamination of that bottle, you can consult a doctor and if required go for prophylaxis therapy. The therapy is difficult as there are disturbing side effects with medicines like nausea, abdominal upset etc. I am again telling you that there is no need for that therapy and there are almost nil chances of infection so don't take stress for that.
thanks, wish you a great health


Can HIV virus survive in the lotion for 60 mins?
Hello again
Detailed Answer:
I want you to note two points-
- HIV virus survives only for few minutes in dried surfaces if it was transmitted from infected individual. Also if it is in moist surface it can survive a little longer, may be few hours. How ever lab transmissions can survive longer.
- Second, there is no known case so far where the transmission occurred via inanimate objects.
And I want you to reassure that you have nil chances of getting infection.
If you have more doubts you can ask again, Thanks
