Brief Answer:
Rash is not due to HIV.Chances of HIV transmission is nil.

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thank you for query. I am Dr Bharatesh D Basti answering your query.
Welcome to health care magic. I have gone through the photo and details.

The chances of transmission of HIV by hand job is nil, unless there are bleeding wounds in both of you ,in the area of contact. It is most unlikely.So there are no chances of transmission of HIV.

The rash appears to be either due to fungal infection or allergy. There is almost no HIV specific rash.
The rash is unrelated to HIV.
You can allay fears of HIV.

You can get back for any clarification.
Thank you
