Avatar n tn "Kissing is no risk, even deep ("French") kissing and even with a person who sores on their mouth or has gum or dental disease." DR HOOK "Of course no risk. HIV is not transmitted by kissing, even with sores in the mouth. Despite the billions of kissing events in the AIDS era, not one case of HIV has been known to be transmitted that way, even though millions of those kisses undoubtedly were with cuts in the mouth or on the lips.
Avatar n tn If a condom is correctly used, then it's 100% effective in preventing HIV transmission. Since the condom didn't break, you were FULLY protected against HIV. Testing is not required. 2% are left out to the possibility of a condom breakage.
Avatar f tn Now if he blew saliva mixed with blood on the machine and it came on my cut on my head is it a low risk or a zero risk and HIV is not transmitted that way? PleSe advice.
Avatar f tn It continues to sound like your partner is at relatively low risk. OTOH, your partner's safety depends on the accuracy of the sexual histories he gets from his other partners. There's probably no reason to doubt his sincerity about it, but all HIV/AIDS clinics have MSM patients with similar histories, i.e. men who genuinely believed they were at litle or no risk.
Avatar n tn Postings in the forum seems to say hjobs are generally very safe and contain almost no risk re hpv. I know nothing is 00% risk free in life, but to reduce risk as close to 0 as possible, would it make sense that massage oils or other lubs would reduce friction that would other wise lead to infection (in the rare possibility the giver had genital hpv on the hands or fingers)? Would it also make sense that the oil would act as some kind of prophalactic between any infections and the penis?
Avatar m tn Based on reading from most resources and this site I would have analyzed my risk as zero, based primarily on correct protection usage and also low probability of the girl being HIV+ (based on WHO data Hungary has one of the lowest HIV prevalence which is even lower in Women). However, at around 2 weeks time I started feeling minor/mild pin like pains (2-5 seconds coming and going during the day) mainly in feet, hands and sometimes at other places in the body.
Avatar n tn I do construction and currently 10 weeks and have done it since day 1. My question is, is it ok to be doing the heavy lifting, going up and down ladders all day. Power tools and all... ??
Avatar m tn I also have to spend some time in an office that is directly beside one of these theaters. I just don’t know what is considered high or low risk exposures? Am I at risk for chronic or acute silicosis? Should I be concerned or would I need much more direct and prolonged exposures than this? They still have another month of work to go and my concerns over this is making it hard to be there.
Avatar m tn With regards to asbestos exposure, he should discuss the situation with other employees, his employee health and safety representative, and his employers. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) can provide more information or make an inspection.

Avatar m tn Welcome to the Forum. Please don't let stigma and shame get to you. You had a lapse in judgment- now it is time to get pat that and address your concerns. Your causal partner's failure to even consider condom use and the setting where you met does suggest that there is some risk for classical STDs, and perhaps HIV associated with the exposure. The risk is not great but I think it warrants testing, both for your safety and for your peace of mind.
1932244 tn?1323292210 Hello, For a subsequent pregnancy after a miscarriage you can wait for at least one normal period. Pregnancy loss due to cervical incompetence is a risk for the next pregnancy. For this reason, you should be sure to consult with a high-risk pregnancy specialist or other experienced OB/GYN early in your next pregnancy and ideally before conception.

It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps.
Avatar f tn me and my boyfriend (long distance) have both admitted to each other we're virgins. we've also discovered i'm the one with more experience. he's never gotten a ******** or a hand job, etc. i'm going over to visit him for a while in the summer, i've arranged to get on the birth control pill, and had mutliple talks with my mother and experienced friends about it's use in preventing pregnancies.
Avatar n tn As i've posted before about protected sex with CSW, i like to get opinions about the safety of some branded condoms. Because i am in china, am at a disadvantage with reading. A few nights ago i had sex with a CSW and used one of their condoms. It felt different and much more lubricated on the inside. Is this normal? There was no leakage after sex. But because some websites say that poor quality condoms cannot prevent HIV from transmitting, i'm scared.
Avatar m tn I have no way to assess the accuracy of your assessment of your parents and sibling's feeling towards you but I find it rather doubtful. I will provide a single brief answer. Eating (ingesting) food which is contaminated with genital secretions would not transmit any STD. there is no risk of getting any STD from food. There will be no further answers to "has it ever..." or "could it ever...." questions.
Avatar m tn I'm working on the construction site.Yesterday morning I cutted my finger with angle grinder.Not bleeding only just moist.(Burning wounds).When finised the job on afternoon more little bit moist sometime.The wound its little bit deep.After i handshake my collegue,that hiv+!For him as well was few cuts or wounds on his hand.I am little bit worried now,because for me the same time was little open wounds.Was any risk for me?I can to sex with my wife without comdom?
Avatar n tn The answer to your second question regarding where to travel with children is a complicated discussion based in risk assessment, your risk tolerance, your planned activities at each destination, your accommodations at each destination, etc. In the travel medicine clinic setting, we often have these types of discussions that are specific to each travel destination. I welcome additional specific questions that you may have. ~•~ Dr.
