I had protected sex (used 2 condoms) with a prostitute in Indonesia 8 months back. That girl is not infected with hiv since I've asked her she said no she's regularly testing. Now I feel joint pain. Burning feet. Palm. Do I have chance of getting infected?

These are not symptoms of HIV, do not worry. Condom protects from HIV transmission and the absence of mouth ulcers in u. But bathing, does not, and brushing teeth is not advisable as it can cause microabrasions and infact can lead to transmission rather than leaving alone. Use condoms always, and avoid other sexual activity with open ulcers. You do not seem to have HIV, if in doubt get tested with ELISA once, as it has been more than 3 months now. All the best.
