Hello
Please do not worry about HIV straightaway.
There can be itchiness in the genital area, due to fungal infection, dryness etc.
It does not always mean that you got the infection from your wife.
Swollen glands under the ear maybe due to sore throat etc.
Please consult a physician to examine the glands.
Go for simple HIV testing so that your anxiety is relieved.
Take care.

Visited a dermatologist today and he said my genital itchness is due to yeast infection. Visited a dentist about my dry mouth and he said its fine just i should keep calm.
I went to do a blood test but the result is not out yet. My main concern is HIV and STD. What are the chances of me getting HIV. I suffer from gonorrhea six months about and had been treated. I always have protective intercourse but rare that i use protective for oral sex.
Im a businessman and travels a lot. I use escort services weekly but ever since i got married i stopped. What are my chances of getting HIV? Im waiting for my result and Im scared and nervous
