Question 1

I recently visited a massage place and something is really bothering me. I was wearing one of those disposable poly pants and lying on my stomach. The massage therapist, who was a woman and nude, sat on my buttocks during the massage, and I ended up ejaculating in my pants. There wasnt any kind of penetration at all. But now Im really worriedwhat if her vaginal fluids somehow got through the disposable pant and came into contact with my penis or anus? Is there any chance I could have contracted HIV from this?

Accepted Answer

HIV can be transmitted through vaginal secretions without penetration if there is direct contact with the penis or anus

Question 2

I've been really stressed because I've done the HIV combo test after 1.4 years, and it's still non-reactive. Should I consider this result conclusive? Over this period, I've taken the test almost every 2-3 months, and it's always come back non-reactive. I'm honestly just worried and could use some guidance on whether I need to keep testing or if I can finally relax. Any advice would be appreciated.

Accepted Answer

Your HIV combo test being non-reactive after 1.4 years and repeated testing every 2-3 months strongly confirms that you are not infected with HIV. Please trust the results and try to ease your mind. If anxiety persists, consider speaking with a counselor for support.

Question 3

Hey, I just had a weird experience where a mouse bit my finger. There wasn't any visible cut or bleeding, but it felt like it pinched. There's a small bump now and I'm not sure if it's related to the bite. I washed it thoroughly with Lifebuoy soap for a couple of minutes, used Dettol, and even applied extra Dettol on the spot. I got an anti-tetanus shot last year and a rabies booster just a couple of months ago, so I'm curious if I'm still at risk for anything like Hantavirus since there wasn't a clear break in the skin. Just wondering if there's anything else I should do. What are your thoughts?

Accepted Answer

Since there was no visible break in the skin or bleeding, the risk of infection (including rabies and hantavirus) is significantly lower, You're well-protected with your recent anti-rabies and tetanus shots. No additional doses are necessary unless advised by a healthcare provider. if area becomes red or swollen or painfull then consult a doctor

Yes ,continue same treatment as advised by the pulmonologist. If symptoms re-appear pulmonologist opinion is advised.
