Everyday I seem to have on average a 1-3 risks of catching HIV even though I do not have sex at all & do not do drugs. These are things like touching things cups handshakes toilets etc. It all started when I had unprotected sex 1 1/2 years ago with my girlfriend and then waited 3 months of a HIV test which was negative. Since then decided not to have any sexual activity so I would never have to worry about HIV but it didn't work sadly. There are two particular risks which I can't shake off me though and wanted to ask you about Dr please. 1) I went to a public bathroom to urinate. However as I went to leave I noticed blood on the inside bathroom door handle and I am worried that I might have touched the blood on the door handle when I closed the door and then a bit of blood got onto my penis when I urinated either by my hand/finger or if I touched the bottom of my shirt or my boxers as I was undoing my pants and then that touched my penis. A woman left right as I went into the bathroom. So just before I left I wanted to see if the blood was fresh so I got a bit of toilet paper and wiped the blood and it smudged easily. The blood was about the size of a fingerprint as I could actually see a finger print in the blood. 2) My hairdresser cut her finger when cutting my hair she went and put on a bandaid. I dont know if she sanatised the scissors or changed them but it's a reputable hair salon. She then a few mins later nipped my skin with the scissors which did not bleed and just left a little red mark more a nip if you nip your skin with your finger nails. My questions are 1) Taking everything into account what my risk in that bathroom situation to HIV and do I need to test? No need to explain or go into detail simply a 'No Risk' and 'No Need to test' and 'Move On' would be more than sufficient 'if' that is what the answer is. 2) Same question as 1 but to hair salon incident
