Cut with no time gap .

[Cutbychance]

I helped to my neighbourhood to lifting his AC to fit into window .  We lifted  the AC by hands on both sides . My palm was attaced with his palm during lifting it . After coming from there i noticed that my palm  had a cut  bleeding very little .  Now i am very anxious as if he also had same time cut from same AC body and ours hand by attaced to each other . There may be no time gap between his and my cut as our hands was attached to AC side by side . He used drugs and may be hiv positive . Please  what should i do ? Any HIV ? Thank you.

The only risks for HIV in adults are:
1) Having unprotected anal or vaginal sex, or
2) sharing intravenous needles with IV drug users.

There isn't any other situation that you can think of that would put you at risk for HIV. HIV does not infect via minor cuts and scrapes.  HIV needs to enter the bloodstream, and that DOES NOT happen small amounts of blood.  The only risks involving wounds would occur when both parties are injured so severely that they require immediate medical attention at a hospital to stop the bleeding.

You had zero risk for HIV and should move on.

Thank you sir for your reply . I am feeling good now. Only i am thinking that as our palm were attached to each other and it may be like firstly he cut and same time i got cut over his blood as his palm moves little . It is clear that cut was not so serious . Please last comment if there is no time gap between both cut  as out palm were attached .

If ours palms are attached to each other and get cuts togther then also no risk ? Please answer this question only . Thank you .

Did you both visit the emergency room because you were both in danger of dying from blood loss?

If the answer to that question is "no," then you were never at risk for HIV.  Please move on.
