I was eating chapathi when I saw a drop of blood on it. When I saw I have already eaten it. What to do? Can it cause hiv or hep because it was someone else's blood. And I have a small cut inside my mouth and on my lips. Can the blood go inside these? Are they open wounds? Please tell. And while eating it also I bite the inside of my mouth without knowing. So can the blood go inside this fresh cut but the cut is small. Can it cause hiv or hep?

The main cause of getting infected from hiv is unprotected sex. Hiv is a virus that lives in human blood, sexual fluids, and breast milk. It weakens your immune system, so your body has a hard time fighting off common germs, viruses, fungi, and other invaders. Hiv doesn't live in saliva, tears, pee, or sweat -- so it can't be spread by casual contact with these body fluids. If still in doubt, connect with me via call for right consultation.
