Hi, I need advice please.
I recently used a public toilet and when i wiped myself I noticed the tissue was wet. I looked at the roll I had used and it had previously dropped down the toilet. I know the chances are remote but I worry that It had been dropped down the toilet by a HIV+ lady while she was menustrating.
Could you answer a few questions for me please
a) Could my mucous membrane absorb the virus with one wipe (I have thrush so slightly enflamed down below)?
b) Would the water in the toilet be able to dilute the virus at all, thus making it less infectious?
c) Do I need a test?
Ive read you cant catch HIV through environmental surfaces but I dont Know If this includes wiping them on a mucous membrane!
Thankyou in advance for your time

Asked on : 04 Aug 2011   

On 7th May i had sex with woman whom i met in disco. i used condom but it get tored in between the intercourse. It was a minute contact just for few seconds after that i discontinued. After a few days i noticed a red patch on my penis head and the tip of penis seems like swollen lips, i thought that it might be due to tight condom or it get hurt during sex. After a months a had dairreah which lasted for a day. After 20 days of this incident i started feeling feverish but the body temp remained between 98.5 to 99. Few days after i had mouth full canker sores and stomach full of gases.Then i visited to general physician but i did'nt disclosed him about my red swollen penis. He diagnosed it as F.U.O and prescribed cefixime 400mg for three days and it worked and i got well for few days. But again this feverish symptoms started with headache and congested nose in the morning.There is no swollen lymph nodes any where in the body.But sometimes i experience neck stiffness and itching of whole body which causes red rashes for few minutes. Again i visited the doctor and he prescribed ciprofloxcin 500mg for three days. Now its August and i am not feeling well. Red patch and swollen tip of penis is still there. I also have oral ulcers My question are:
1. Are these symptoms related to ARS or HIV?
3. What about my red swollen penis as i have heard that HIV infection has no symptoms on genital organs?
5. What are my chances of getting infected?

I had sex with a escort(find online) today who came to my hotel room. i did not had any vaginal intercourse with her , i was wearing a condom and she took my penis in her mouth while i was still wearing my condom on(i don't know how she did it was awkward how she can take a condom in her mouth) as this was my first time i got nervous and feel very bad.at the same time i ask her to move and i came out with out having any sex intercourse with her. and went into a rest room to remove the condom .before me she went in to the rest room so when i went in there i saw some blood on the floor and i was freaked. it was more like clots than menstrual blood. The sight of the blood freaked me out and I immediately took a shower and washed my genital area with soap and water. Needless to say, I have been freaked out over the incident since there was blood involved i have not seen blood on the condom when she took my penis in her mouth and i have not had any sex with her and she also kissed my chest but no french kiss its was like couple of minutes she was on me. I don't know how much of that to believe when i ask her before starting all this are u clean she replied yes im don't worry .at that time just left the place without saying any thing but after coming home i started thinking about the blood i saw , i thought she might me on her periods and still wants to make money that's y she came out for escort. So, my question is how worried should I be?
