Totally scared, PLEASE HELP
OK. This might seem like a moronic question, but I hope someone can ease my fears:) I had a pedicure three days ago, the girl cut my foot. She was shaving the top of my toes, the little hairs off them. It was really more like a scrape that bled just a bit. Am I at any risk?
Oh one more thing, HIV has not adapted to living outside of the body so therefore it dies very quickly when in contact with air. I'm also sure she washed the utensil before use.
well personally i think most of the other jazz you read on the internet is theoretical, meaning its possible but soo unlikely. Just like it's possible to be walking down the street and get struck by a small meteor, but what are the chances? Yea im positive your fine.
Thanks so much mattyodawg!!! I just got concerned because you read all this stuff about hiv from razors and toothbrushes,Any truth to this? So there is no chance of hiv with what I described/
