HIV: Not likely to be responsible for a boil in your vaginal area. If you think you may have been exposed to hiv, however, you should go and be tested. If this "boil" keeps on coming back have an ob/gyn doctor examine you. This may be a Bartholin's cyst, or similar issue.

Get tested: If you have any doubt, get tested, HIV is a treatable infection.
