I'm really worried about a situation that happened about a week ago. I had an encounter with a commercial sex worker where I was grinding, rubbing, and poking her nude vagina for around two minutes. I had my underwear on, and there was a release of precum, while she was completely naked. She mentioned that she experienced a leakage of fluids. I'm concerned about the possibility of her fluids getting through my underwear and reaching my urethra. Is there a risk of HIV or any STDs being transmitted through this kind of contact, even with my underwear on? Should I consider getting tested, or am I overthinking? I've read some things online saying it might be nothing, but I would really appreciate your advice.

You do not need to worry about HIV transmission in this scenario, as the virus does not pass through intact fabric like underwear. Naked frottage (grinding without penetration) carries an extremely low to negligible risk for HIV. However, if you're anxious, you can do an HIV test (4th generation) after 4 weeks for peace of mind and rule out other STDs with a routine panel. Rest assured, your described exposure is highly unlikely to result in any infection.

One of my close friends has multidrug-resistant lymph node tuberculosis, and she's currently undergoing treatment. The test results for her sputum came back negative. I'm wondering if this condition is contagious in any way, and if there are any precautions we should consider. Can you advise?
Although your friend's sputum reports are negative, Multi-Drug Resistant (MDR) lymph node TB can still be contagious through close contact, especially if your friend has a cough or is experiencing lymph node drainage; take precautions like wearing a mask, avoiding close contact, covering mouth and nose while coughingsneezing, and ensuring good ventilation to minimize transmission risk.
