Can HIV Or STD Be Contracted Through Wound On The Testicles?
I recently shaved my pubic area with clippers while shaving I cut my testicles. It bleed for a few mins and I applied alcohol and aloe vera gel. I showered and applied powder after shower got dressed went to casino meet a young lady and we had intercourse protected but I forgot about cut. After sex i went into bathroom and removed condom and area started to bleed. What are my chances of being exposed to hiv or and other std.
It is unlikely to transmit the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) as scrotal skin usually does not come in contact with vaginal secretions. HIV is not transmitted by skin to skin contact. If any HIV infected blood or secretions come in contact with a wound on testicles there are chances that are unlikely in your case. So you can relax. You can get back to me for any clarifications with the photos.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
