Is it possible to contract HIV in this way...... - HIV Prevention Message Board

About three weeks back I pleasured a high-risk girl with my fingers and hand. Part way through what I was doing, I noticed my skin started to burn on my finger. When I stopped and looked at the end of my finger, I noticed that my skin was partly open near my fingernail. I guess it was a hangnail that was re-opened. It was not bleeding, but it was irritated and sore which made me think that some of her vaginal fluid could have entered through the tiny opening. What is the chance that the HIV virus could have been transmitted through the tiny cut on my hand? Thanks for any advice.

Well I suppose it is possible but it is soo unlikely that that happened. You said you did this to a high risk girl? What makes her high risk? This has nothing to do with your experience but I've been wondering about a guy that I messed with. I'm not sure if I would classify him as high risk so what made this girl high risk?

Hey don't worry, relax, you might have had an itty bitty cut on your finger, the amount of fluid that could have gone in is so miniscule. This shouldn't be keeping you up at night.
