really worried about getting hiv this way
I was working with someone who is bisexual but I think he is more into men, we were packing items and he kept hitting my hand with his hand and I just got a pretty fresh some what deep cut from a box the day before, if he was hitting my hand and he touched my open wound then would I get infected I am not sure if he had a open wound which I was nervous about that but if our wounds both rubbed or touched even for a fast second then could I conduct the disease? And if I want to get tested then how long til I can take a test for any results to show? I am very worried and I didn't see any blood when he did smack my hand but i would have noticed something right?? And can rubbing wounds cause me to get it?? I really need to know. Thank you! And btw I am male Idk how to change it to male.
No risk. Deep cut...you did not get stitches so it was not deep and whatever you think you will never get HIV that way
Are you sure? I mean what if he had blood or an open cut and he rubbed it on my deep cut? And then later I put gloves on to do another job and im nervous by wearing them I like sealed the hiv in my cut or on my hand where he was touching me and it got in my wound or its still on mt hand because I was wearing gloves over the cut and now im scared everything I touch is infected like the clothes I wore.
