Bleedding gums, early symptom of HIV infection?!
Question:
Bleedding gums, early symptom of HIV infection?
I had a low risk exposure and after 2 months have bleeding gums, ie in the morning when i spit i see blood mixed with saliva and after 4 to 5 spits the blood stops.
Is this just a bleeding gum problem or a early symptom of HIV infection ( after the low risk exposure I had light fever, headache and yeast like infection on my genitals which is gone now).
I got tested for HIV after 3 weeks of exposure with negative results
help me people
Answers:
No, it's not a specific sign of early HIV infection, but it sounds like you have periodontal disease and need to see a dentist.
A negative test at three weeks is reassuring, but you need to test again at three months to be reasonably certain.
