2019-07-13 17:17:53
I received oral and from a random person for very mins , whose hiv status is unknown. Now after like a week, my doctor diagonised I have tonsillitis and given me medicine for 3 days. I am very afraid. 1. What are the chances of getting hiv through receiving oral sex? ( no sores or wound on my penis) 2. Is one sided tonsillitis an early symptom of hiv ? Plz help me , I am very worried. I know I should get tested in few days. But pl help me understand the above two questions. Thanks

Start on antibiotics for tonsillitis and get hiv test done. No, one sided tonsillitis does not mean hiv.
