Is it possible to contract HIV after a blowjob and fingering by a spa person?
Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
I went to a spa for a body massage four months ago, and the spa person did a blow job on me and inserted a finger into my asshole. I am afraid of HIV-positive people. I took an HIV test at the laboratory today and received a negative result. But now I doubt the test was done by the card method. I am not sure if the card method is correct or not, or do I need to retake the test. I asked a laboratory employee about the card generation, but he was unaware.
Please help.
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I understand your concern.
The chances of transmission of HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) by a single blow job are almost nil unless there are bleeding wounds in the oral cavity. Fingering has no effect unless there are bleeding wounds in the hand. Bioline card tests are typically very sensitive (detection rates). After three months of exposure, it is negative. With the given risk exposure and HIV test dates, there may be no need for additional HIV tests.
Thank you.

Hello doctor,
Thank you for your reply.
Is it all right for me to be in a relationship with my wife, or do I need to take any additional tests? There are symptoms such as itching on the body, spotting, and being unable to eat food. Please explain briefly.
Hi,
Welcome back to icliniq.com.
I understand your concern.
If you are overly anxious, go for an HIV antibodies test at another reputable laboratory to completely relieve your anxiety. The symptoms are non specific and unlikely due to HIV. Consult your doctor for examination and management of your symptoms.
I hope this will help you out.
Thank you.
Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
