Can you get HIV if you share a cigarette with someone who is HIV+ and your lip is bleeding?

Although this is not technically impossible, this is extremely unlikely.\nHIV needs blood or blood product transfer to be caught. An HIV infected person has very few viruses floating around in their blood and bodily fluids (compared to hepatitis, for example), so the chances that some of the virus was in the saliva on the cigarette and managed to get into the cut on your lip is very very slim. So unless you and the person you shared a cigarette with were both bleeding quite a bit, I wouldn't lose sleep over it. \nMy sister, a paramedic in NYC, has been covered with HIV positive blood twice that she knows of, and she is fine.  \nI'd worry about lung cancer from those cigarettes, though. :)

When I was in high school, we had a man come in who was HIV+ talking about the virus. He told us that small amounts of saliva won't transfer the disease; ex: kisses here and there, or sharing utinsels. Saliva will transfer it if a LOT is digested; ex: drinking a cup of spit. I know, it's kinda gross, but hopefully my point is taken.

Not sure I understand this question. But, here goes.\n\nIf both partners are exclusive and both partners tested negative for HIV/AIDS, then they should never be infected with the disease through exclusive sexual contact. \n\nBut you can get HIV/AIDS in other ways. So if one partner is a Health Care professional and is stuck with a sharp that is infected, then he or she could contract HIV/AIDS.

The HIV virus CANNOT survive on its own in the mouth and cannot seriously transmit through salivia. However, if there was an open cut in the mouth, then there is a slight possibility of HIV transmission. If you're concerned about these possibilities, look into purchasing some dental dams, which can act as protection.

The risk of contracting HIV here is very low... but if your girlfriend had HIV and she was bleeding from an open sore inside her mouth and you ingested some of her blood (EVEN a microscopic amount) then there is some chance you could contract the virus but the odds are against it. Why take chances with your life?

if you do not have any open cuts or sores you cannot contract HIV from him just by getting blood on your finger. i know it's scary but you'll be ok, get tested though just for piece of mind. hope that helps :)

This is crazy - of course STD's can be tranferred from oral! I hope u don't blow a guy with aids or syphillis. Also , watch out for bleeding gums and canker sores.

idk if you can with hiv or aids, but cancer yes, the only reason why hiv could be a problem, would be becuase your on the battle ground, and if youwere to get injured you could spread it becuase ppl around aren't covered or prapared for it, so you'd unknownly be sprading it, and i dont think that you want to do that, teehee

ummm... if by ******** you mean sexual intercourse, then yes - HIV can be aquired by sex with someone who has it.

Possible. One can have HIV infection from infected blood or sexual fluids. If you happen to touch  an infected blood or sexual fluid and you accidentally touch your wound (if you have one) or you happen to touch the part of your sex organ that is most sensitive to the virus (by having sex with yourself as you said??), then you might get HIV...Just making an analysis.

Definitely, I know of someone right now that contracted HIV from oral sex. Condom is the only safer way to go.

Straight people get AIDS too, that's very stereo typical.  I can't believe that you said that!  Well, no, you can't get AIDS/HIV from saliva.  You can only get it from sexual fluids, blood (transfusions/"blood brothers," etc...) and if you are pregnant and have AIDS, you can give it to your child upon birth.

tell me .. do you inspect your partner's mouth for abrasions or ulcers or check your own mouth for the same?\n\nThere exists the potential for transmission of HIV / Hep B in kissing .. so avoid it with strangers...\n\nWould you like to risk it?

Nope, if you're both HIV / AIDS negative there is a 0 chance you'll get infected... unless you involve a monkey somehow... or an infected person...

Nope,\nYou can only get HIV through blood, including blood transfusion, and sex (anal, oral, and vaginal).  If you are a heroine user and you shoot up the drug through a needle, and you have HIV virus, and someone else uses that same needle they can also contract the virus as well.  Those are the only ways.

AIDS is the disease caused by the HIV virus.\n\nYou can get infected with HIV if the virus passes into your body from someone else who is already infected.\n\nThere are two main ways this can happen:\n\n1. Through having unprotected (no condom) vaginal or anal sex with someone who has HIV. Oral sex carries a small risk of transmission. There has never been a reported case of transmission through kissing (even deep kissing).\n\n2. Through someone else's infected blood getting directly into your bloodstream, for example through sharing drug or tattoo needles or injecting equipment, or piercing with unsterile equipment. In the first half of the 1980s a number of people were infected from contaminated blood transfusions, but this is very rare now because blood donations are screened. Sometimes HIV is passed from an infected mother to her foetus either in the womb or during birth.\n\nYou CANNOT get HIV through normal non sexual contact, or from sharing eating utensils or from mosquitoes.

any exchange of fluids is a gamble but usually a  sore or wound is necessary to get aids but if you go ask about the most recent test they have had and get tested for free at the city or county clinic and a another sure way to get aids is blood if one of you has a sore in the mouth or anus and exchages blood over the wound then its more likely to infect than saliva since salive is acidic and has some digestive emsymes
