Only a test can tell you that.<\/p>\n<p>The burning pains and increased urinating symptoms you describe are not related to a new HIV infection but could be caused by another sexually transmitted infection. You should go to your doctor for a full STI test as soon as possible.<\/p>\n<p>The symptoms of paralysis should be mentioned to your doctor also as they cannot be explained by a STI and need to be checked out.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I am 39 years old. Just 15 days ago I had unprotected sex with a female partner.<br \/>\nImmediately after the act I suffered pains around my waist dropping down to my legs. My legs were completely paralysed for some 20 to 30 minutes. I couldn\u2019t get up from the bed. It was a very strong pain like if I took a weakening injection needle.<\/p>\n<p>The next day I started getting burning pains in and around my penis, which I still feel, till today. It burns like a hot pepper been poured on my penis and a flash of pain come and go inside my penis. Also I started urinating in every few minutes constantly without stopping. I also start feeling a serious waist pain and its like something going around my back and waist, so I decide to take the woman to a clinic for HIV test and she came out positive and I tested negative. I was ask to come back in 2 to 3 months time for another test but am very scared now; please its possible that I am affected with HIV now?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7,22,23],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2395","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-all-topics","category-hiv-testing","category-hiv-transmission"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2395","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2395"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2395\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":24480,"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2395\/revisions\/24480"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2395"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2395"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2395"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
