Fingering Gave Herpes - HIV as well
      #159207 - 08/28/05 09:11 AM

I fingered a stripper and got herpes where I had a cut on my hand. I had an 11 week hiv test that came back negative. Is it still possible i got hiv as well as herpes from this episode?

Buddy,

I don't think there is much risk here at all (if any!). I've never heard of anyone getting HIV (let alone herpes) from fingering. If you have doubts or you're worried, go to a clinic and talk to a doctor.

I don't think you have anything to worry about at all.

fingering anybody will not give you hiv. was she menstrating with your hand completely cut open? (and that is sarcasm)..your going to try and find a tiny scratch on your finger.....forget it...you are not at risk. (and I've nevere seen anyone get a herpes.....on their finger????)
usually on the mouth or genital?

Actually, herpes on the finger actually has a name (herpes whitlow). Mine was confirmed by a Dr. (I would never have even thought hiv if not for this).

I know my Dr. and Hotline both told me I definitely needed to be tested. Sounds like they are being very conservative (which is good) but that it would take a significatnly greater amount of bodily fluid tranfer than would get into a cut to to cause HIV, correct.

Thanks for your patience with everyone on the board (including me) asking the I'm freaking out questions. IT IS APRECIATED!
