Hiv or htlv exposure
Some blood was seen outside.my home
A person stepped on it , then walked from outside to home maybe 10 steps and also stepped on the carpet then after 1 minute stepped on sharp cardboard at home.
After about 27–30 minutes, I touched the same cardboard and felt irritation like a scratch occur on my fingers while handling the sharp cardboard
No visible bleeding, no open cut seen
But what if there was microscopic bleeding wound not seen from naked eyes i also check using the flashlight of the phone and don't see any bleeding

Hello Sir,
The situation you described does not carry any risk for infection like HIV or Hepatitis. Once blood is outside the body and exposed to the environment (floor, carpet, cardboard), viruses cannot survive in a way that can infect another person. Also, you mentioned there was no visible cut or bleeding on your finger — microscopic invisible bleeding does not transmit infection.
So, you don’t need to worry in this case. The irritation you felt is likely due to the sharp edge of the cardboard, not due to infection risk.
I hope it helps you. For more info you can contact me, just go to my profile.
