Could A Rash Under The Arm Be A Sign Of HIV Infection?
I m 9 weeks in to the 12 weeks waiting period to see if I have contracted HIV. To date I ve had no symptoms except for a bad cold that I caught off my daughter that has also been spread to the rest of my direct family. That aside, this morning I noticed a rash under my arm. I ve seen my own GP and she reckons my chances of contracting HIV are slim to nothing but the worrying and this rash that has popped up has sent my anxiaty levels through the roof. The rash is small and localised and looks like a clump of moles ; is this something I should worry about?

Hello
Rash may be due to allergy or other infections.
You have no other classical symptoms like fever, weight loss etc.
So up to now its not possible that you have hiv.
But still do your lab test and confirm whether yes or no.
Hope this will help you a lot...
