Hello,

Thank you for asking your query at DoctorSpring.

The symptoms you have mentioned is non specific and is not suggestive of HIV. Since you had protected sex you need not worry as there in nearly zero risk of HIV. You should relax and take your mind of this concern. Anyway I recommend an HIV test . (antibody based) atleast 5-6 weeks from the episode. The negative test will take the load off from your mind.

Thank you
Please feel free to ask followup questions.
Thank you
