Avatar f tn Laboratories that possess ELISA capability can increase the ability to detect most infections by testing for both HIV antibody and p24 antigen. During the late 1990s, assays in an ELISA format that have the capability to detect both HIV antibody and HIV p24 antigen simultaneously were developed, thereby eliminating the need to perform separate assays.
Avatar n tn Less common microbes include Ureaplasma, Mycobacterium, and cytomegalovirus, or Cryptococcus in patients with HIV infection. E. coli is more common in boys before puberty, the elderly and homosexual men.” “Non-infectious causes are also possible. Reflux of sterile urine (urine without bacteria) through the ejaculatory ducts may cause inflammation with obstruction. In children, it may be a response following an infection with enterovirus, adenovirus or Mycoplasma pneumoniae.” Refer: http://en.

Avatar m tn Statistics in UK show that heterosexual infections now form the largest increase percentile wise in new HIV infections, the majority of which , however, are acquired abroad eg Africa or Asia. In North America there is a disproportionate incidence of heterosexual hiv acquisition in the urban Afro-American community. Why this is so I am not sure, as purely basis scientific knowledge , HIV should not have a ethnic minority-specific transmission rate. Its not a gay/black /IV user only disease.

Avatar m tn Fordyce spots are small (1-5mm) bright red or purple papules that can appear on the glans, shaft or scrotum and usually affect younger men. They may occur as a solitary lesion, but frequently appear in crops of 50 to 100. They are painless and not itchy, but may cause embarrassment because of their appearance, or a fear that they might be sexually transmitted. ' From childhood to adults, Fordyce’s Condition increases.
Avatar m tn HIV is inactivated in saliva, HIV is inactivated in air. Those are 2 reasons you and everyone else in 40 year HIV history can't have HIV from oral sex despite cuts, chapped lips etc. So you wasted your time testing. Symptoms aren't used to diagnose HIV and you have no medical training, so it is not surprising that you are puzzled trying to self-diagnose what a test has proven you don't have. Everyone gets flu but few have HIV.
Avatar m tn Herpes isn't likely to be white bumps. Herpes is usually blisters or cuts that looks like paper cuts. White bumps can be a huge number of different things, from normal skin variations, Fordyce spots (which are just oil glands), genital warts/HPV, etc. At the bottom of his penis head, it's probably pearly penile papules. These are totally normal. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hirsuties_coronae_glandis - yes, it's a wiki article, but the photo is good.

Avatar m tn The high risk kind is what can lead to cervical cancer, and men can have that and have no signs or symptoms. The low risk kind is what gives you genital warts, and you can also have that and show no symptoms. If you do get symptoms of hpv, they can show within a month or two, or take years to show. About 80% will have HPV in their lifetimes, though most won't know it. Herpes sores typically show up within 2-20 days, but not always.
Avatar n tn Those are not any kind of symptoms of HIV. You did put yourself at risk so you should test.

Avatar m tn t test does not show a symptoms how many months will he know he have HIV? If a person shows a symtoms is it always accompanied with fever and lymph nodes?
Avatar n tn Well hes not exactly absurd for worrying about HIV, most HIV symptoms are Flu-like symptoms such as sore throat, sore muscles, fever, etc. I would be worrying too if those symptoms showed up after sex. Definately get tested.
Avatar n tn It is not an STD, but a common, harmless skin condition. I have particularly seen it mostly on uncircumsized men, but on circumsized men, as well. You can probably still find a photo of it on answers.com. Unfortunately, it is often confused with HPV, or genital warts. PPP is harmless, and will likely be with you for life, but it can be alleviated with a non-surgical laser procedure, by a cosmetic surgeon.
Avatar f tn I am now in my third week and now i sometimes feel cold and tired easily. I started to freak out when i read an article about hiv symptoms. Am i at risk?
Avatar m tn t go away on its own. It can be asymptomatic (sometimes but usually in women not men). Usually, men get pain on urination, and it is hard to urinate. You should take antibiotics without a doctors approval or at least a physician assistant. You could have an allergic reaction to a drug and/ or not take the correct drug. No one on here is a doctor. So they shouldn't be prescribing antibiotics. However, they can give you websites and suggestions. The symptoms you have are not like those of GC.
Avatar m tn m glad you are proactive about hiv. chances you are hiv free - very high chance , in fact, and your symptoms are most likely due to stress, alcohol or something else entirely.
