Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I stang myself with a sewing needle in Sri Lanka. The needle belongs to a local family. I have no background information about them. It didn't look rusty or with dried blood stains on it. Once stang, i pressed the finger and a small drop of blood came out. now i am very scared. I know chances to get hiv are quite slim but i am wondering about the possibilities for other infections such as hep B or C. Can you help me figure out if i'm at any risk? Thank you
