I just got my dad's blood test report and it says IGG is negative, IGM is positive, and the NS1 antigen is negative. I'm kind of worried and wondering, does this mean he might have Dengue virus? Could you help me understand these results?

I recently had an encounter with a sex worker, and while I was with her, I accidentally got a couple of drops of her breast milk in my mouth. Now I'm worriedif she happens to be HIV positive, is there a risk of infection from this? Should I get tested for HIV just to be sure? Would love some advice on what to do next.
If the person is HIV positive, the risk of transmission through breast milk is generally low, especially if there are no visible sores or open wounds in the mouth. However, it's always a good idea to consult a healthcare provider and consider getting tested for HIV to ensure peace of mind and early detection.

I'm really worried right now. I had sex with a sex worker and used a condom, but I'm anxious about the risks of HIV. Is there any chance of getting HIV if the outside of the condom touched my penis after ejaculation? Also, after I touched her vagina and then my penis, could that have been risky too? Another thing, I kissed her body but avoided her lips and vagina. Should I be concerned about that? Please help me figure out what to do next.
yes
