A member asked:
Doctor, how much lymph nodes swell and where are their location in acute retroviral syndrome? ?is one swollen lymph node point to hiv after safe sex?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
HIV unlikely: To have HIV transmission there must be fluid transfer from one person to the next. If you had safe sex HIV would be very unlikely. Swollen lymph nodes can be seen in a large number of viral illnesses as well as with bacterial infections. See you doctor.
