What Are The Chances Of HIV Infection With Open Wound?
Hello,
At first please excuse my english, I'm not native speaker.
I'm a man and today I had an intercourse with a prostitute female. That prostitute was young caucasian, without any sign of illness, drug taking or so. We have used a protection and there were no hazardous activies (except the intercourse with a condom). However right after the intercourse, I have touch the condom with finger on which I have small cut (a few mm long) and I believe I have touched the condom directly with this cut, so I touched directly the vaginal secretion. There was no fresh blood, however it was apparent that it was a fresh cut, therefore there was no impetigo. When I slighly press on this cut, small amount of blood and pure fluid had appeared.
Shall I be worried?
Thank you

Hello
After considering many things ,read this carefully :
Factors that might be associated with mucocutaneous transmission of HIV include exposure to an unusually large volume of vaginal or cervical secretions, prolonged contact and a potential portal of entry ( here in your case although ,there was a cut ,but not deep , after secretion contact blood oozes ,when you pressed the cut ).
In my opinion in your case this is not a cause of concern.
So not a worry point because you had taken every precaution i.e. protected sex.
Good luck.
