Detailed explanation-1: -There are three types of tests used to diagnose HIV infection: antibody tests, antigen/antibody tests, and nucleic acid tests (NATs). Your health care provider can determine the appropriate HIV test for you.
Detailed explanation-2: -Deep, Open-Mouth Kissing Very rarely, transmission has occurred if both partners have sores or bleeding gums. You can’t transmit HIV through closed-mouth or “social” kissing with someone who has HIV. You can’t transmit HIV through saliva.
Detailed explanation-3: -A person with stage 3 HIV may develop various infections and illnesses due to damage to the immune system. These infections can lead to swollen lymph nodes. In some people, swollen or large lymph nodes are among the first signs of a stage 3 HIV infection, and they may be enlarged for more than 3 months.
Detailed explanation-4: -A rash is a symptom of HIV that usually occurs within the first two months after contracting the virus. Like other initial symptoms of HIV, it’s easy to mistake this rash for a symptom of another viral infection. Therefore, it’s important to learn how to identify this rash and how to treat it.
Detailed explanation-5: -COVID-19, flu and HIV may have similar symptoms such as fever, chills, night sweats, muscle aches, or fatigue. The flu-like symptoms of acute HIV begin within a few weeks of HIV exposure and then eventually go away.
