HIV infection concern

Hi, folks.

So I have a quick question about the risk of such behavior.
Suppose I have a open wound with slightly bleeding, if a hiv positive person
lick this wound ( again suppose she may have some blood in her mouth, since
Saliva can not transmit hiv). Under this scenario, would there be any chance get infected?

Thanks for any comments!

Thanks a lot! I will keep this in mind.

Can I say that even the blood contact( slightly level), as long as saliva presents, the risk is low or zero?

Thanks again!

Is that true that I have no concern about being infected? Even if there were blood in my partner's mouth and I was bleeding? Please! I beg your attention.

Deeply sorry for that, teak. I have been so regret for my stupid mistake and I am a father of 1 year old son. I feel I can't face my family. Until I confirm this, I will apologize to my family.

But I really need some advice to help me against my fear.
If possible, would you please pm me your comment? I will delete my post.


Thanks!
