That's nice to hear! It's been 2 months since having armpit pain which like an on off type pain I never used to get swollen lymph node or armit pain when having a cold and that's why am worried

You can't get Hiv using a condom because it protects the head of the penis which is where the HIV has to enter in the urethra. There is an std forum for std questions. Nothing went wrong on your vacation except you caught a cold and have spent time worrying about nothing.
You don't have any medical training so you are wasting your time trying to diagnose disease - for one thing lymph swells with every cold and it is doubtful that you know how to check lymph anyway.
Don't use 2 again though, because they can rip apart from friction.
