Could Sore Throat, Stuffy Nose, Coughing Phlegm Be Related To HIV Infection?
okay so i have a sore throat and a slightly stuffy nose. can breathe through it well enough, but still pushing out mucus. I have a cough sometimes, and usually a little bit of phglem comes up. I don't see any swollen lymph nodes, but i wonder if these could be early symptoms of an HIV infection? I took a test at 9 weeks that said I was negative and now i'm at 10/11 weeks feeling this way...

thank you for query.it is not clear about your age,sex,intercourse history,any contact with HIV patients etc.with the symptoms mentioned without any contact with HIV patients it is unlikely to have HIV.please take treatment for same and consult doctor if you have any contact with HIV patients.It is better to have protected intercourse like using condoms if either of them have multiple partners.
