Avatar m tn My right hand finger was pricked by a needle(or it may be a nail)on the wall in a pub, I felt pain at that moment and I looked at my finger finding there's no flood coming out (but I was not sure about it, cause the other day I found something red on my left hand fingers, the tricky thing is that according to its color it doesn't look like blood at all because the color is light and can't be washed easily) the place I got pricked is a passageway and there's a lot of people passin
Avatar m tn Hello, In a club last night I accidentally touched the bag of the girl I was talking to. And I felt with my finger something very sharp pierced through the bag. As I was drunk I didn't care about it that moment, but now I think that the girl looked like I might believe that she is a drug user. So, I'm worried if it might be a needle. But I don't know whether it went through my skin or not.

Avatar f tn Hi I recently asked question which was very kindly answered Regarding needle sticks I was told that it’s not risk even if someone had used needle and then that needle had pierced my finger as I’ve been informed that this isn’t risk because it’s not needle for via the vein why is this because health care workers are considered a risk if they get needle stick via the finger...

Avatar f tn I have about 5 needle like, or pin prick like dots on one of my fingers tips. It started as one but now I noticed there is about 5. They are small and not very noticeable, but if you look closely you can see them. They hurt if pressure is applied. I don’t recall seeing this before. Possibly something similar when I had warts on my foot, so that’s all that I know it could be. Does anyone have any explanations? Also, can pictures be posted so it’s easier to see what I’m talking about?

Avatar f tn when i came in I had an itchy feeling, looked down at my finger and noticed the finger is bleeding, some half cm long scratch (bled only a little like when you have a scratch some blood comes out you suck it and then it stops wothin a few minutes). I sucked the blood and thenvlooked in the ashtray - and a used syringe was lying there... It could be there for a minute, it also could be there for twenty minutes i dont know.
Avatar m tn I was recently tested for HIV. The test was negative but after the test I realized I did not ask to see the needle prior to being pricked. While I was awaiting the results the clinician and I were talking and he was asking me some questions that felt odd to me like, "What would it be like for you if you were HIV positive?" and he said, "I would be there for you, but is your family supportive?

Avatar f tn I have had a logn day today and finally layed back relaxing now but im having the worst sharp needle stabbing pain in my vageygey lol. Lets just say not pleasant at all. I keep telling myself 2 more wks only 2 more wks and no more lol.
Avatar m tn As soon i pick up the bag i feel like something prick or poke me right under my middle finger nail. So i thought it might be needle in bag. I saw there was no needle visible on top of bag. Then i squeezed and press my finger to see if some blood might come out of it. But i did not even see even one small dot of blood coming out. so then i did not open bag as i thought it might be something else.
Avatar m tn Sudden sharp pain like a needle stick to my right inside pointer finger in the last joint
Avatar m tn Thanks James, she doesn't think she was injected, it was on her finger,and her finger did bleed, but the pt had a very high viral load. she has seen 3 drs and is extremely ill at the moment. Dr say its cause of the pep. But the Drs she has spoken too all seem to have different things to say. One dr said use a condom for a month, the other says 6 weeks , and the 3rd says 6 months. But they all seem to be optimistic that she should be ok.... Any thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated .

Avatar f tn The only problem was that she was using her bare finger and touched my needle wound in the process. I do not know if she washed her hands before doing this and I did not see any blood or cuts on the bottom of her finger but I still would like to know if I could have been exposed to HIV if she was positive for it and had a cut on her finger when she touched the bare needle wound that had not healed yet.
Avatar n tn As we pulled up at our destination i dropped some money underneath the seat i then stuck my hand under the seat to try and get the money to find a sharp pain in the end of my finger when i then looked my finger was bleeding. I did not see what it was that caused this but there is no visable cut to my finger. i am worried that it could of been from a disgarded needle or a syringe or something and that i may have caught something such as HIV or hepatitis? what are te chances of this?
Avatar m tn I vaguely remember feeling a sharp pain when I went to shake someones hand in drunken friendliness. There seems to be a little red dot on the end of my finger but I can't remember if that was from falling over or something else.. I was so drunk I can't give more details. I did seem to get diarrohea and stomach cramps 2 days after which subsided after a day but I don't know if that was due to that, the amount of alcohol I had or a mild case of food poisoning.
Avatar m tn hello dr, somedays ago when i was giving local anesthetics to a pt the pt moved his hand so fast that i failed to observe any potential needle prick on my hand, but i felt a dull pain on the lateral side of my middle finger near the joint. aI was useing a21G hollow bore needle. after that I removed my gloves( i was useing double gloves) and washed the area with a lot of water but i did not find out any breach or pore or any sort of bleeding from that area.
Avatar f tn she said to me that i was saif. my real concern is that needle from which she prick my finger ,there were some needles on the table . my questions are Q1)if the needle was infected by hiv+ blood can i got infected ?
