Small Open Cut And Fingered a Woman.please Help Posted: 01-09-07 00:02am
Hi, I had a small open cut on my finger
that I had got about 20 minutes earlier
and fingered a woman with it for about 1
minute. Two days laters I had a sore
throat and felt very tired along with a
weird rash\irritation on my tongue. The
woman swore to me shes clean and will get
tested in about a month from now. But
right now I cant sleep and im having
stomach problems because of all the
anxiety. If infected with hiv can the
symptoms occur has fast as 2 days later?
And what are the chances of me contracting
hiv with the small open cut on my finger
while fingering her supposing shes hiv
positive. Someone please respond, I cant
sleep and im a nervous wreck. Thank you
so much.

You didn't have a risk with a small cut on
your finger and the symptoms that you are
having came on to quick to be related to
hiv. If you are concerned about you
symptoms, see your doctor.

.An open wound, no matter what the size,
does allow for the transfer of bodily
fluid from her to you. .Your symptoms
are way too soon to be brought on by hiv.
.If you are worried have her test now.

First off you can contract hiv through any
cut if it comes in contact with any other
bodily fluids.....But you cant however
have symptoms that quikly....It usually
takes up to six months for it to even show
up on a blood test if you have it and at
that time you still most likley wouldn't
have any symptoms.....As for the other
stuff sounds like you might a have a case
of the "kissing disease" aka "mono" no
big deal...But you will need to go the
doctor to get tested out just incase it is
something more severe

Thank you all so much for your time and
answers. It makes me feel alot better
that two days would be too soon for any
symptoms. She wants to get tested a month
from now in case I had hiv so it would
show up on her test. I will try to
convince her to go now because I cant live
like this. Thank you all so much again.

Iridescent_opal, hollymccormick show me
anywhere in any scientific article that
shows documentation that there has been
anyone infected in that manner. Before
you look to hard and long the answer is
there has never been an infection caused
by small cuts and nicks or hangnails.
