Why would you use a used razor? Its not likely you are sick from that if you are traveling maybe you have a touch of food poisoning or had some bad water?

DON'T PANIC - you probably got food poisoning

To get HIV you need to interact with living blood - seconds after a razor cuts an HIV infected person the HIV dies - it can not survive outside a body

enjoy the rest of your trip (Pepto Bismal or other Med might help)

Did you cut yourself with it? On a two week trip it is more likely that you have encountered traveler's diarrhea and are tired from going all the time. Don't sweat it now, but if you get really sick see a doctor and see yours when you get home to rule out anything really icky. But, I think you are probably fine.

It should be avoided because this is not a good practice because a lot of peoples now suffering from many types of ST D's and HIV so you shod avoid this thing next time, go fer the complite checkup and tell your doctor about this.
