Hello and welcome to healthcaremagic
I am Dr. Kakkar. I have gone through your query and I have understood it.
I would like to gather some more information from you in order to be able to help you better
-When was this sexual encounter?How many days before?
-So you tried to have unprotected anal sex but could not but there was genital rubbing, right?
-Did you practice any other form of sex?
-Can you upload a clear digital picture of the red rash on penile head?
The guidelines are clear cut for PEP, to avoid any confusion: "PEP should be provided following exposure of non-intact skin (through percutaneous sharps injury or skin abrasion) or mucous membranes (through sexual exposure or splashes to the eyes, nose or oral cavity) to a potentially infected body fluid from a source that is HIV-positive or has unknown HIV status. Body fluids that may transmit HIV include blood, genital secretions and cerebrospinal, amniotic, peritoneal or pleural fluids"
