Brief Answer:
No risk of HIV in your case.
Detailed Answer:
Dear XXXXXXX
Welcome to HCM.
You had protected sex wearing the condom and the 4th Gen CMIA HIV test result after 4.5 months is also negative so there is definitely no risk of HIV in your case as the window period for HIV varies from 15 days to 3 months so the test result is 100% reliable and conclusive so don't get feared or worried for HIV.
The red rashes over your glans penis are due to some allergy or some fungal infection but non-specific for HIV. Consult any Dermatologist to isolate the cause and follow the treatment regime. Be relaxed, forget about the episode and move on in life happily. For any further query feel free to ask me any time.
Thank You

Dear XXXXXXX
Welcome back and thanks for follow-up.
High WBC count may be due to some other infection but not related to HIV and the reason for red spots is either allergy or fungal infection as per my opinion. Consult any dermatologist to isolate the cause and follow the treatment regime. Allay the fear or anxiety related to HIV as you are absolutely safe and risk free.
