Hi doctors. I’ve just had an unusual incident where during some celebration me and my colleague hit each other’s champagne bottles and broken them causing deep cut(muscle was visible and bleeding heavily) on fingers on both of us. I don’t really know his hiv, std status and not sure if his blood got into contact with my wound. Should i get pep or something like that? My local doctor said negligible risk as the blood was flowing outside … please help.

Also after 5-10 minutes, doctor used hydrogen peroxide and iodine to disinfect. Will it kill hives and any other virus?

Welcome back to the Forum.  Thanks for your continuing confidence in our service.  Were I in your position I would not feel any need for PEP.  ---

Thanks for the reassurance! And final question:

I'm pleased that my comments were helpful.   Yes, my assessment is for all STIs.  Please don't worry.  EWH---

And one more thing: I read in internet that hydrogen peroxide is not that effective killing hiv as it should be applied quickly until virus enters to body. and im not sure when my friend's blood got into contact with my wound, whether blood started to flow outside or not yet.  does it make any difference? are there many/any such cases out there? and the last thing: what's the difference between injecting vuris into the body and getting blood in an open wound?

Sigh! I’m sorry you’re having so much trouble moving forward following the no risk event that you’ve described. These will be my final responses and the thread will then be closed. There should be no need to return and should you return with additional questions regarding this no risk encounter The thread may be closed without a response without return of your posting fee. You are worrying entirely too much about an inconsequential event. ---
