Is There Be A Possibility Of HIV Transmission Through A Boil In Pubic Area?
Hello, I had a boil(small pus filled lesion) in my pubic area. After I had sex with my girlfriend, it got ruptured after some time of sex. Clearly after sex, I took a tissue paper and removed the pus until it started hurting. So there was nothing going in but only the pus coming out. Is there be a possibility of HIV transmission through the boil maybe because of the boil getting in contact with vaginal fluids? My girlfriend is not an HIV. Just normal blood group. Kindly reply. Regards.

hi,
if partner status is known as negative, no fear at all...is absolutely safe,,
mixing of infected vaginal fluid on bare area/ mucous membrane/abrasions is certainly risky,,,
u r case is not a risk...
