I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you. This rare transmission can occur through contact between broken skin, wounds, or mucous membranes and blood or body fluids from a person who has hiv. There is no risk of transmission through unbroken skin. Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.
