I had about five different encounters with
different partners, where in I engaged
myself in getting masturbated (handjob) by
them (without condoms on), and no other
sexual activity, except for some dry
kissing. As I recall, I didnt see any
visible blood on their hands or fingers.
However, one of the partners applied some
kind of a lotion (which I am not sure if
it contained any traces of body fluids)
and another partner washed off using a hot
wet towel (again I am not sure if the
towel had traces of other fluids).
About 2 months after the exposures, I
suddenly had low fever which kept coming
and going, (mostly high during night
times) and receded after about a week or
two. After that, I also have been
recurringly having sore throat, and cold /
cough much more than I used to before.
I never got any of those symptoms before.
I am getting scared and worried if this
may be something related to the encounters
I had as mentioned above. What std's am
I at risk for, please advise me....... I
am completely stressed out due to
this....
Should I consult a doctor? Please help
me.....
What are the chances of infection if body
fluids come in contact from the hands to
the penis during mutual masturbation?
Please advise....
Thanks a lot
roger.

I think u don't have any hiv risk at all.
Handjob will not transmit hiv, and the
virus is weak, it won;t survive in the
lotion too. You didn;t have sex with
them, so ur risk is 0. Other std? Don't
know, just go and do a body check.

The activities you describe carry no risk
at all for hiv. Ask yourself these
questions:
1. Why would there be bodily fluids in
the lotion?
2. If there was no blood coming from the
person, where do you expect hiv to come
from?
My answers:
1. There is no plausible way that lotion
would carry bodily fluids unless someone
intentionally put them in there, which is
really very unlikely. More than that, if
there was hiv in the lotion, it would not
survive more than a few minutes in there
after being deposited
2. Hiv cannot simply jump into a person.
Infected blood, semen or vaginal fluids
must get directly into your bloodstream
don't worry

If they had open sores, perspiration it is
possible. Even if their is one-billionth
of a percentage the best way to find out
is to be checked with your Dr.

Hiv is not spread through perspiration
(sweat). If it were then many, many more
people would have hiv. A one billionth
percentage is not worth worrying about.

No need for any comment here. The
original post is not an hiv risk. Of
course, we assume we're getting the entire
story. However, eople shouldn't run to
get hiv tests simply due to a recent hand
job. All it will do is drive up the
costs of future testings.
