Can red spots, fever, and muscle and joint pains be due to HIV?

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern. It can be an allergic rash (atopic rash) with a superficial fungal infection, for which I would suggest Tablet Teczine M (Levocetirizine and Montelukast) once at night after food for seven days. Use Ketoconazole soap (KZ soap) for the bath for two months. Apply Dersil AF (Ketoconazole 2 percent) body wash 20 minutes before bath for 20 days. Tablet Diclomol (Diclofenac and Paracetamol) once daily for five days for fever and pain. Maintain proper hygiene. Practice safe sex. Avoid multiple partners. Use protection. Kindly revert for more queries. Thank you.

Hi,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

As your test reports are negative, HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) is negative. Yes, it is conclusive, as after 90 days also, it has shown negative. So no need to worry. It is a minor atopic rash with intertrigo (due to chronic friction or superficial fungal infection). Follow the medications suggested above. I would also suggest Tablet Betnesol (Betamethasone) or Prednisolone 10 mg once daily after breakfast for five days. Avoid activities that cause sweating. Wear comfortable thin cotton undergarments. Avoid friction, heat, or moisture in that area. Stay in a well-ventilated room or cool environment. Avoid triggers. Also, attach images of rashes of the wife if possible to arrive at a definitive diagnosis. Kindly revert for more queries. Thank you.

Hi,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

It is an atopic rash with seborrheic dermatitis (attachment removed to protect the patient's identity). I would suggest the following. Apply Mometasone (Mometasone Furoate) cream at night or 1 percent hydrocortisone cream at night for seven days. Apply Miconazole (Miconazole nitrate) cream in the daytime for two weeks. Moisturize skin daily with a moisturizing cream for 20 days. Tablet Teczine M (Levocetirizine and Montelukast) once at night after food for seven days. Tablet Zentel (Albendazole) 400 mg only once immediately. I hope this helps. Thank you.
