Hi, rash on bum or diarrhoea for 3 days are not the sign of hiv. You may havr some gi infection or other cause for that. However you atd at high risk. Sexual relationship with multiple partners is always a risk factor so you should go for hiv testing once. you can go with hiv 1 and 2 antibodies and p24 antigen combo test.
hope i have answered your question, if you have doubt I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. wish you a very good health.

Hii


please avoid multiple sexual partner to avoid such circumstances.

It is less likely that rash and loose motion indicate HIV.

But as you have multiple sex partner you need to go for HIV testing.

So please do that and avoid such high risk sexual activity.
Be safe.
Thank you

Dermatologist Dr. Bharatesh Devendra Basti's  Response
Thank you for query.The symptoms you are suggesting are not specific and may be due to fungal rash.Use loose cotton clothes.Keep area dry.Apply antifungals like terbinafine which is fungicidal.Once subsides use regularly antifungal dusting powders like candid or absorb powder to prevent recurrence.consult doctor if does not subside
The loose stools only one episode is normal for any person to occurs due to food poisoning or infection.so allay fears of HIV because of these symptoms.
As all intercourse are protected you need not worry.If still anxious can get tested for HIV depending on last exposure .You can get back to me for any clarifications .Dr Bharatesh D Basti Dermatologist and Venereologist
