Welcome back to the Forum.  I'm sorry you felt the need.  My answers will not change but I will try to provide some additional information.  It appears that you feel guilty about this.  As a result, you are looking for abnormalities and changes and are probably detected changes that you would otherwise overlook or ignore.  I can assure you that NO ONE has EVER gotten HIV from receipt of masturbation and that you will not be the first.  While I see no scientific or medical reason for you to be tested, perhaps to reassure  yourself you should seek testing.  If your symptoms were due to HIV, you test would be positive.   Please don't worry.  EWH---

Dr i had slept with my wife because I was thinking it’s was save and I will not get HIV from someone hand and if it was that easy then lots of people will get it because I am not the first one and I will not be the last one had a handjob in massage or club or in real life , its just the way I think sometimes so please out of your experience do I need test is there is risk? I swear it was only handjop no kissing i I didn’t touch any part of her body and she was dressed fully its just the feeling when she touched my pins that s it . I didn’t had fever no pin in my muscle i jus felt pain in my legs  which makes me worried that’s all and even the rash or the spot on my side it’s not to much but when I see them I got scared.

No, your symptoms are not at all suggestive of HIV.  I'm sorry if you misunderstood why I mentioned testing.   I mentioned testing ONLY because I thought it might you have wanted reassurance beyond my words.  There is NO MEDICAL REASON or testing.  

Sleeping with your wife was safe.  The event you described was a NO RISK event.  She would not become infected because you received masturbation.  Please don't be scared.

I am confident that the symptoms you describe are NOT due to HIV.  Your exposure did not put you any risk for HIV or other STIs.

As you know, we provide up to three responses for each person's questions.  This is my 3rd response so this will complete this thread. Take care.  Please don't worry.  EWH
