Q: HIV from popping pimples

I just wanted to know if you pop a pimple on the back/face of an infected person, can you contract the virus? There was no blood, just white puss that came out. Thank you!

unless the puss went directly into an open lesion, there is no possible way to contract the disease. if you're still scared, you can get an hiv test done. it's suggested you get one every year if you are sexually active.

I don't have any open visable open cuts, that I can see, but I have heard that dried cuticals can constitute a break in the skin. Is that true?
