What Are Risk Of HIV?
Question: Yesterday I had protected sex with one lady, her health is unknown. During sex, she unknowingly nail scratched on my body, no blood drops are there on my body,, but chest skin is ruptured say 2 to 3 mm. Seems she touched her vagina with her hand some times. Whether any chances of hiv infection as she nail scratched with the same hand. I’m getting nervous
Brief Answer:
your HIV risk is negligible
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
HIV is not viable outside the body fluids mot more than few seconds. So the possibility of touching her vagina (amidst her activities), with her hands and scratching with the contaminated nail and getting an infection is a remote possibility.
To my knowledge, there is no such report of HIV transmission.
