Question

I was hanging out with a friend in june and i had really fry skin on my wrists that was starting to split and crack. And i had to hug a friend who might have an STD i don't know what it could be, but it could be anything from HIV/AIDS to whatever the smallest one is. And i was wondering if i hugged this person with my dry cracked/split skin could i have contracted AIDS or something???

Thanks

Answer 1

no, there has to be an interchange of bodily fluids other than saliva.

Answer 2

HIV is not spread by casual contact or by saliva.  You can touch, hug, or even kiss someone who is HIV+ without risk of being infected yourself.  The only way you could get HIV from kissing someone is if you both have open cuts or sores in your mouth.

Also, remember, STD stands for &quot;sexually transmitted disease&quot;--and hugging someone is not the same as having s*x with them.  

Answer 3

HIV/Aids only transmits when 2 or more liquids in two different peoples bodies mix, when your kissing because your saliva has gone to the kisser it might send hiv/aids to the person, hiv is something to the with the interior of the body not the exterior.

Hope i helped :)
