t prescribed, and list a lot more symptoms, like your right testicle is painful, rash on your neck and chest and something stack on throat that not painful when swallowing. The antibiotic is obviously not working, so go see a doctor. None of that sounds like an STD, and I'm not sure why you didn't mention them here, but see your doctor.

when i search internet my rashes are more look like HIV rash. I read in HIV prevention form . hiv ars is in 2- 6 weeks. please advice me . Is this hiv or std.

s post exposure and the result was negative but in recent times I developed a rash on my stomach which is red in color and painful(it's like a stretch mark) and nowadays I am feeling as if my stomach is bulged having White colored dot's in my mouth and throat infections so are these symptoms of HIV. Do I need to test for HIV again.

I'm glad you tested because unprotected vaginal or anal sex is a risk. That you knew her makes it less likely and in the worst circumstances, a one time unprotected exposure is less than 1 percent chance of transmission. You tested at 27 days. 28 days and beyond is when a 4th generation test is fully conclusive but I would not think your test would change. Symptoms are NEVER used to diagnose HIV as these same symptoms can be because of lots of things. I would relax if I were you .

you cant even see it unless you look closely. Is this typical for hiv rash to not only be that visible but not at all painful? just itchy bumps?

Thanks Vance. All this Internet research I'm doing suggests that the rash I have is classic early HIV symptom. If not HIV, any idea what is causing it? Never had unprotected sex, except for that oral encounter.

I have had numerous HIV symptoms since my exposure 6 weeks ago such as pain in lymph nodes, night sweats and rash and a white tongue So I decided to go to the doctor and get some help ... The doctor said that my rash is just a localised hair follicle on the chest and that my tongue is normal not oral thrush and finally that my lymph nodes are not abnormal and not swollen on the neck or armpits but can be felt on the groin...

what does a hiv ars rash come during the syptoms does it come when you see all the symptoms or can it come later because when i was sick with no fever (normal flu symptoms), then when i got a shot of antibiotics and two pills of antibiotics then a few days i notice a rash on my chest and thats when the swollen lymph node came. the rash had swollen my chest hairs no white puss or nothing just swollen, and it stayed that way for a few months.

I guess I just wondered if the ars rash would be painful and itchy? I just was concerned as this is within the window period for it. My new partner stated he hasn’t been with anyone else in a few months but u just never know so I thought I’d ask.

what happened with you in end.

I did breakout with a painful rash of my left shoulder blade area the day before I had my last test. I am freaking out. I am told told to retest in one month, but I can't stop worrying.

t find any concrete information. Does the rash itch? How does it look? Where is it on the body? Is it intense or just a simply rash thats not at all painful and barely noticeable, just itchy? In my case its all over my body, especially on my legs. It would be my first symptom 14 weeks after my possible exposure along with diarrhea. Does that sound like it could possibly be HIV? Also, does diarrhea usually come with it?

I am HIV infected? I didn't experience any other symptoms though I always experience rashes/hives/itchy skin daily until now. Another is my lymphocytes from 26% to 29% is it okay to fluctuate in 3-4 months? Thanks!

Yes but I got the exact HIV rash on my palms exactly how it looks in the pictures! Red non painful flat I took a test and am awaiting the results.

Will definitely do! This is so weird and uncomfortable to say the least. Now the rash is coming back in a different area on my chest, it is itchy but not painful. I am not an IV drug user, I am not/never been on chemo.Few months ago I was a very healthy individual and now getting rashes every other week, back and joint pain and possible shingles after a very unlikely "HIV seroconvertion" ?

well !!!

t sound like shingles. Shingles tends to linger for longer than a few days and is rather painful, not just painful to touch. since your rash is gone, no way to figure out what causes it. It wasn't herpes simplex causing you those symptoms in that area. should your rash reoccur, be seen promptly for an exam by a medical provider.

I already tested negative but still worried. Does the rash itch and is the swelling in the lymph nodes painful?

3 month test post exposure is conclusive. Rash can be from HIV or 100 of other things. We don't speak about symptoms because they are non-specific.

My concern arouse after about friday, i started looking up causes and it threw at me shingles, meningitis, and HIV rash. Which scared me, because ive always been afraid of getting hiv. But now im freaking out, i will describe this rash.

After two weeks or so the blisters on my penis slowly turned into a red rash on my penis head that resembles contact darmatits, and this rash is still present after 18 days. the rash is on the head of my penis. i went to a dr. again yesterday, and he thought my spleen may be enlarged but he was not 100% because i am very skinny and muscular. So, he wanted me to come back next week for a sonogram of my liver.

I came up with a rash that is actually quite painful and itchy. I have had shingles once and it's similar but it's been so long that I don't remember. I'm going to post 2 pics in my profile. One is from a couple days ago and one is today. I can't tell if it's shingles or a fungal infection or what. I can't put pressure on it.
