Hii

It is high risk to have HIV if you have done sex with sex worker.

but it is less likely that your wife has HIV because HIV doe not produce symptoms within such short period of time.
It is flu like symptoms and require treatments.


But go for HIV testing. First only you go and test your self.

If it comes positive then only testing of your wife require.

But always avoid high risk sex and avoid sex with sex workers.

Be safe.
Thank you.

Hi
You have done protected sex and you do not need to fear about contracting HIV. Generally by protected sex you do not get any HIV.
Symptoms of HIV generally take 6 months to appear and symptoms appearing immediately may be due to any other infection.
Please consult a near by physician for your problems now and you can get treated easily.
In order to prevent HIV transmission you can have a protected sex.
Do not be afraid or depressed you can consult your near by ICTC( integrated counselling and testing Centre) if you are in India where you will also receive counselling on HIV.
All the best
