I'm really anxious because I had unprotected sex with a woman, and now I'm at 82 days. I've been planning to get an HIV test after 90 days. Lately, I've had a dry cough for about two months. Could this be a symptom of HIV or am I just overthinking it? Can you help me understand this better?

I got bitten by a female monkey on my left hand's ring finger, and it's been bleeding and has a small wound. I washed it with antiseptic and tincture Iodine, but now the finger is a bit swollen and stiff. I had a tetanus shot back in November 2016. Should I be worried about this, and what should I do next?

Get a Tetanus shot and complete Anti Rabies treatment as soon as possible
