I've been treated for TB last year, but I've noticed a small swollen lymph node in the past few days that's tender. Should I be worried about it coming back?

I had unprotected sex with a commercial sex worker, and it's been six months since then. I already took an HIV test using the CMIA method at an ICTC, and it came back non-reactive. Is this result 100% conclusive, or should I take another test after a year just to be sure? I'm a bit anxious about the whole situation and want to make sure I'm in the clear.

Since your 6-month HIV tests (CMIA, ICTC, and HIV rapid tests) were non-reactive, these results are considered conclusive and accurate, and you do not need another test at 12 months unless you are experiencing symptoms or have had another exposure. However, if you remain anxious or have concerns, you can consult with a healthcare provider for further reassurance. Please keep in mind that safe sex practices, including the use of condoms, are important in preventing HIV and other sexually transmitted infections (STIs) moving forward.

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?
