Specializes in Infectious Disease

No risk: Unless she is an injection drug user, sex worker, or otherewise at special risk, it is unlkely she has HIV. Even if she does, nobody has ever been known to be infected by kissing, regardless of chapped lips, bleeding, etc. This is not something to be worried about.
