Getting Burning Sensation In Finger After Fingering. Worried About Contracting HIV

Hello doctor, I fingered a girl last December then I felt a burning sensation in my finger. I pulled out the finger then I realized I had a small cut but it was not bleeding . I guess the burning sensation was a clear indication that her vaginal fluids had penetrated into my body, through the small cut. Please help me doctor, I am really worried if I will contact HIV . Please.

Hi,

Welcome to Healthcaremagic.

If the HIV status of the woman you were involved with is positive and if you had any cuts on the finger then there are chances of you getting the infection.

The burning sensation on the fingers could be due to the acidic nature of the vaginal secretions.

Wish you good health.

Regards,
I find this answer helpful
