Can I Get HIV Infection From Cut On Finger?

After sex, I removed the comdom and hence touched it. There was a small cut on one of my fingers. I do not remember whether the cut touched the condom. If she was positive and the cut touched condom, how is the risk to get hiv? I read many forums which says no risk, no case like that reported so far. Is this correct?

Hi, it is correct. You have almost nil chances for hiv by that way. But theoretically you are right. Practically its not happen. No case is reported till now. Still if you have doubt then go for confirmatory hiv testing once after a month of exposure. You can go with p24 antigen or pcr. Its just for your mental piecr and satisfaction otherwise you are safe.
