Hi,
Dont worry. just relaxed.
no any need for hiv testing in your case.
Masturbation has no relation with hiv/AIDS or it has no relation with anyother health problems also. your burning sensation may be due to simple urinary tract infection. just take treatment for that. dont worry for hiv. you are completly safe and no need of hiv testing.

Hi, masturbation has no relation with hiv infection or any health problems. hiv can spread only by sexual contact, blood to blood contact or from maternal to child. so you have no chance of hiv infection at all. No any need for hiv testing. dont worry. just relaxed.you are safe.
thanks for using health care magic.
