multiple recurring boils in my buttocks, neck - sign of hiv or AIDS?

Question

Hi,
I had protected sex more than 5 years before. I had tested after 3 months from that point for hiv and it's negative. I had no symptoms from that time.

But recently every winter i am getting boils on my eye, buttocks and neck and going away. 3 days back i got 3 to 4 boils on my buttocks and one near my *** hol-e. It's painful like hell.

I am seeing in internet that boils may be cause of hiv or AIDS?
Is this true? I am really worried now.. I am scared to take another hiv test as now i am married recently.

If it's not hiv, do we have any long term cure of recurring boils? Any food habit change or any helpful hint so that i can follow from now?

Thanks

Answer 1

Your doctor is the best person to consult on this problem. You probably don't have HIV if you aren't showing any other symptoms, but should probably be retested anyway. The chances of getting it from protected sex are pretty slim, though.

The boils could be anything, you really need to show them to your doctor, especially the one near your anus. Maybe he or she can help by lancing them. Don't worry about the embarrassment factor, your doctor has seen everything already and won't be shocked by you!

Good luck!

I believe you have to get tested for aids for up to 10 years after possibly being exposed to the aids virus to make sure your in the clear.
Have you discussed your concerns with your mate?
It's best to communicate about each others health always.
Go to a doctor with your mate and discuss your problem and concerns.
It wouldn't hurt if you both got tested for aids.
Better safe then sorry.

Answer 4

Are you shaving in those areas??? Ingrown hairs, infected hair follicles, this can lead to boils also...

try taking some iron vitamins....... your body is in need of it....... low iron can lead to boils.......
