Whats right? Im worried
You are safe
Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome to healthcaremagic
I am Dr. Kakkar. I have gone through your query and I have understood it
You are safe as far as HIV is concerned since the condom was intact. Moreover, regarding the vaginal fluids touching the base of shaft, that is not a concern because HIV should have direct access to the blood stream, through an open wound. An open wound is a cut which is freshly made and freshly actively bleeding. This does not mean an old healed paper cut for example. It does have to be fresh and open and bleeding for the virus to gain access into the blood stream.
Even for cuts, once a scab forms (usually within a few hours), this would no longer give access to the bloodstream, preventing HIV from entering.
Therefore you have nothing to worry about.
Regards
