Did Masseur Pass the HIV Infection to Me during a Massage? Posted: 03-24-06 13:14pm
Dear doctor,
I went to massage parlour last two day
just for normal massage. But the next day,
my whole body feel itchy. I am think of
that i may get hiv infection this way
because the messauer told me that she also
offer masturbation for its client but i
rejected her offer.
What if the massuer give masturbation to
her previous client and she didn't
properly clean up her hand and then later
she come to massage with ginger oil. I am
so scared because her outlook seems
dirty.
What is the chance i get infected with
hiv this day and do i need to take the hiv
antibody test... I am really freaking out
now because of the itchinesss.
Thanks and regards

Don’t worry! HIV-infection can’t be
transmitted via dirty hands, masturbation
or massage. However, if the masseur had
fresh sperm on her hands and you had open
wounds on your body...there is a chance
that HIV be passed from her to you.
Nonetheless, I don’t think that you can
get infected with HIV under the
circumstances you’ve described. Ihn any
case, you can tkae and HIV-test now and in
6 months just to be sure.
