Hi,The red spots on your leg could be due to various causes unrelated to HIV, especially since your HIV tests were negative. However, given your concerns and history, I strongly recommend consulting a doctor online for a thorough evaluation and peace of mind.
Next Steps
Schedule an online consultation with a healthcare professional to discuss your symptoms and history.
Health Tips
Continue monitoring the spots, and avoid scratching or irritating the area.

Based on your description, the small red pinhead spots (likely petechiae or insect bite-like lesions) are non-specific and not a typical or early sign of HIV seroconversion, especially considering your negative HIV Duo 4th-gen tests at both 17 and 42 days post-exposure. You completed the full 28-day PEP course promptly and correctly, which significantly reduces the risk of seroconversion.
Next Steps
You can repeat the HIV Duo 4th-gen test at 12 weeks post-exposure (i.e., mid-June 2025) for full conclusive confirmation, though the negative 6-week test is already highly reliable (>95%). If the red spots persist or increase, consult a dermatologist to rule out other causes such as viral exanthema, drug reaction, or unrelated dermatological conditions.
Health Tips
Avoid excessive self-monitoring or internet searching, as it can amplify anxiety. Stay well hydrated, get adequate rest, and observe for any systemic symptoms (fever, malaise, etc.). Remember: seroconversion typically involves systemic signs, not isolated skin dots. Your HIV risk in this context is extremely low, and your current status is HIV-negative.
