Is Eczema A Sign Of HIV?

Hi I'm 18 years and here is my question. I had sex last summer about mid July and this guy had scabby skin that he claimed was Eczema. Besides that I just wonder, say he has HIV and I gave him a blowjob for about a minute and when my mouth began to feel like there was mucus, I spit him out. Then say I scraped my tongue with a toungue scraper and I began to bleed (the cuts were minor) and immidiately washed with mouth wash and rubbing alcohol, what are the chances of catching the virus? Do people with HIV develope eczema?

You are at low risk for getting the virus, but there is still a chance. Since it has been quite a long time from your exposure, an HIV test should give you a definite answer by now. If it is negative, you can be assured you did not get HIV from this exposure. People with HIV can develop all sorts of skin rashes, including eczema. But the presence of eczema by itself is not a sign of HIV.

Hope I have answered your query. If you have any further questions I will be happy to help.
