I'm dealing with lymph node tuberculosis on my neck and after four months of taking medication, I noticed some pus coming out on its own, which was surprising. When I consulted with a surgeon about it, they mentioned surgery wasn't necessary. Now, I'm occasionally noticing some pus on my neck. What should I do about it?

View allSo about three weeks ago, I had a situation where the condom broke during intercourse, and it was only for like 13 seconds. The girl is confirmed HIV positive, and I've been really stressed since then. I did a PCR qualitative HIV test on the 13th day after it happened, and then a duo combo HIV test the next day, both came back negative. Then I took another duo HIV test on the 23rd day, and that was negative too. Do these results mean I'm in the clear, or should I still be worried until I hit the 28-day mark for the confirmatory duo test?

I'm really trying to understand what a "TARGET NOT DETECTED" result means from an HIV 1 RNA PCR quantitative test. It's been 7 weeks, and seeing that result has me a bit anxious. Does this mean the virus isn't there at all, or could it be something else?
That says you have no infection
