HIV risk?: No. Hiv is not caught through skin to skin contact. There is zero risk here, even if there are 'cuts' on the finger's skin.

Better to avoid: Hiv infection transmit by sharing blood, blood product or body fluid . Intact skin usually protect the transmission . However, chances remain if repeatedly exposed to HIV infected genital secretion.

I've read a lot of stories about HIV and Fingering. The most interesting thing is that even if you have a cut on your finger, you don't get HiV. I actually wonder if this is true. Some sites always say this can happen. However, certain sites say NO?
