Is Sore Boil On Penis Sign Of HIV After Protected Sex?

i had sex with some one who later admitted she's hiv positive.i used a durex condom and left my boxer shot on,so i slid my penis through the hole on my boxer shot.i also had this boil which turned into a sore but not bleeding at the side of my scrotal sack,behind my penis.My question is if the bodily fluid after she reached climax touches the tip of the wole of my boxer shot and that incidentally touches my sore which i doubt really because it was behind the penis,just on the groin,will i be infected as i know the virus can not survive outside its host?joseph,UK

Hello Joseph.
After going through your query I want to tell you these things, these include:
The virus has been demonstrated in CERVICAL SMEARS & VAGINAL FLUID.
There was sore below your penis and penis passed through boxer shorts , right , she reached climax , naturally there were vaginal and cervical secretions and they were full of contaminated VIRUS ( supposed to be ,because you admitted that the girl was an HIV positive).
If that secretions touched your sore then there is chance of getting HIV infection by you is more .
You are right that virus can't survive in open air , but in your case the medium was secretions from cervix and vagina of an HIV infected person.
Now get in RAPID WESTERN BLOT NUCLEIC ACID AMPLIFICATION test after 2 weeks of initial contact ( window period ).
Hope this will help you.
