almost no risk.needs investigation .
Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thank you for follow up query.
Actually there is no risk but we cannot be hundred percent sure as secretion has come in contact.
To relieve the anxiety associated with the disease we need to investigate. You can go for HIV RNA PCR after 10 days of exposure.
It is done at any of the well established laboratory like XXXXXXX metropolis or any corporate hospitals.
I am now not in XXXXXXX for sometime.
You can consult any dermatologist and venereologist in medical college or corporate hospitals and also get investigation done.
