Is HIV Infection Transmission Visible Immediately The Next Day?
I had sex with a prostitute and got a pretty bad cold the next day. I had been a little run down the past week and think the anxiety of worrying about HIV infection (I did wear a condom) made things worse. I m highly doubting HIV but want to know if you could have symptoms the very next day??

Hello, Thnx to contact us. If I am your treating doctor I would like to advice you that initial symptoms of HIV is flu like illness. But it wont appear on very next day it requires a week to appear. If you have wear the condom you do not have to worry for it. Even if you worry for the thing I advice you to go for testing with PCR. But I suspect in your case it will be negative. If you have anything else to ask please contact me. Thanx. Dr. Arun Tank
Hi, dear. I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. But hiv will not produce any symptoms on next day. So don't worry about that. Just be relaxed. Your symptoms may be due to some routine viral infection. So just take treatment for that. Don't worry about hiv. Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
