A member asked:
I kissed a women. i had a little pimple just under my lip, which stopped bleeding just before we kissed. i bite my inner lip also. the kiss was closed mouth. our lips touched for 2-3 sec and moved away. we did this 4 times. do i have a hiv risk?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No risk, no wirry: HIV has never been known to be transmitted by kissing, regardless of pimples, lip biting, or anything else you can think of. And for sure not with closed mouth kissing. And the likelihood any particular woman has HIV is extremely low anyway. This is nothing to worry about.
