One week after protected sex, i got leukocytoclastic vasculitis on feet, is this symptom of hiv ?


I had very safe sex with a prostitute, i used 3 condoms one on top of the other very carefully,i didn't do any oral sex with her, i didn't even kiss her, but after 5 days i got leukocytoclastic vasculitis on my both feet, it is diagnosed and treated well. i had blood tests for syphilis and herpes they were negative only, but my question is ,is that a symptom of hiv? even i used 3 condoms, while removing condoms does virus spread into my body in any way?

Pl help me

No this is not a symptom of HIV infection. I can tell you this for two reasons.

1) Most people are asymptomatic well into their infections. Some people with HIV experience what is known as "acute retroviral syndrome" shortly after their infection, however this is composed of flu-like symptoms. Your condition is likely not associated with these acute HIV symptoms.

2) Your risk of contracting HIV through the activities that you have described is minimal, almost negligible. If you used three latex condoms properly, there would have been absolutely no transmission of body fluids unless they were non-sexual (i.e. needle-sharing, etc.)

You don't really need to worry. However, I'm not a doctor and when in doubt, get tested. The traditional ELISA test requires a window period of up to six months (most people seroconvert in a significantly shorter period of time, but ELISAs have provided false-positives up to six months), however there are new tests available now that can detect viral loads between 12-16 days after infection.

Chances are you are not infected, but get tested. It's the ONLY way to be sure.

NO, I had sex with prostitue and didn't use any condom... And, never caught HIV... NOt every prostitute has HIV, and if you wore a condom I am 100% sure you didn't catch HIV..

I am sorry to say I am not sure if you have an STD what it would be, but I was told that if you used multiple condoms at once, the friction causes them to break easier. Maybe they broke, or recieved a small puncture hole? If this is not the case, then just be careful next time you decide to pack them on.

You caught it you MORON do it again why dont ya
