What Are The Chances Of HIV Through Non Penetrative Sex?
Question: Hello
last week I had sex with a prostitute. We had oral sex without condum and intercourse with condom. I also put my finger in her vaginal area. After three days my middle finger got an infection and I went to a doctor and she took out some white puss from my finger and prescribed antibiotics which I'm taking now. I am very worried if I have infection from that sexual encounter and specially worried if it could be HIV. Am I at risk?

Brief Answer:
see below
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
If there was no injury or cuts over your fingers then chances of HIV are almost nil.
You may get a HIV ELISA card test now for a base line and get it repeated after 4-6 months if you are so much worried.

Hi,
I don't remember having a cut on my finger, but i do have a habit of biting my nails and therefore sometimes have small openings around my nail. And the fact that my finger got infected right after that night makes me very worried that i might have had an opening or cut.

Brief Answer:
get an rna-pcr then
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
If you think that there was a cut and so HIV infection is possible then you can go for RNA-PCR test, as it can detect HIV RNA in 1-2 weeks.
But its not available at all placed and is a little costly. So you need to ask in a good lab.
