Had a negative 7 week oraquick test, i have 2 infected hair follicles on my arms....

Also would anyone know if getting my wisdom teeth taken out would delay my time for seroconversion?

Folliculitis might happen to someone infected with hiv but in later stages of the disease, not during ARS. Your wisdom tooth ambulatory surgery doesn't delay seroconversion. So, you're hiv negative. Just do one more test in one month. The result won't change.
