Question

I'm feeling really concerned about some symptoms. Is it possible for a burning sensation in the penis to be an initial symptom of HIV, even if I don't have any fever or other symptoms?

Initial symptoms of HIV can vary, but common ones include flu-like symptoms such as fever, fatigue, and body aches, while penis burning or urethral discharge can be symptoms of other conditions like urinary tract infections (UTIs) or sexually transmitted infections (STIs); however, some people with acute HIV infection may experience genital or anal ulcers, or urethral discharge, so if you're concerned, consult a healthcare provider for testing and evaluation.
