It takes more than 3 days to show up any symptoms.

Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome in "Ask a Doctor".
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

You should know that It takes more than 3 days to show up any symptoms of primary HIV infection . Not everyone who are infected with HIV has any symptoms , but usually they can have some flu like symptoms at least one week or more after exposure.

Hope I have answered your query.

I had sex last week with protection on. two days passed I noticed my belly button was red and sore. so I put some hydrogen peroxide with a cue tip on it. the next day I felt very tired and my throat was alittle scratchy. my joints especially on my right side felt very sore. And this morning I woke up sweaty, that might just be because. I had my windows closed with no fan on.I had no rashes or fever but didn't feel like myself just very tired. it's only been about 5 days. any idea what it could be? hiv or something else?

Brief Answer:
This could be just a viral situation.

Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome in "Ask a Doctor".
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Based on your history, having protected sexual intercourse I think you shouldn't worry about HIV.
The only risk in this situation exist to get HSV 2 or syphilisis if your partner had skin lesion during this time.
Related your symptoms I think could be just a viral situation and belly button just a local irritation.

Hope I have answered your query.
