Contraception and VD - Aids?


Expert: DW - 2/19/2009

Question
What if a person with AIDS tries to pop one of your pimples but they are wearing fake nails and the nails are at least a half inch above her skin or real nails,so her real nails didn't really touch the pimple,can you get AIDS from that?

Answer
I think there would not be too much chance of this happening. Here is a good article I found on the internet that you can read
http://www.uptodate.com/patients/content/topic.do?topicKey=hiv_aids/4460

But anyway, in my opinion, I don't think you should worry. Just watch for the symptoms kind of in the back of your mind. Good luck.

Diane W.
