HIV rash?

I know I’m an idiot for doing this, but on holiday I slept with a female sex worker. Im 99% we used a condom the entirety of the time.

Since coming home, I’ve been riddled with terrible anxiety and been believing that every single thing i have is HIV.

The sex was 7 days ago, and I haven’t really left bed in 3 days because of the anxiety.

Today I have this breaking on my chest. Have a similar breakout on my back.

Is this HIV?

This forum is to support people living with HIV , this is why it is called " HIV partners "

If you used a condom , then there should be no risk of HIV transmission.

Depending on the country, sex workers get tested regularly.

This rash looks like pityriasis versicolor. Not a HIV seroconversion rash.

Test for HIV 45 days after the sexual event , if you are concerned.

If the HIV anxiety is crippling you, attend your local sexual health clinic for a discussion with a sexual health advisor.
