HIV red dots generally refer to the acute phase rash of HIV, which usually has no significant pain or itching. Acute-phase rash is a skin lesion manifestation of the initial HIV infection. It usually appears 2 to 4 weeks after the virus has invaded the body and can appear in all parts of the body. The rash can be red, reddish-brown or purple in color, and is mostly scattered. It usually subsides in about 1~3 weeks. During the AIDS period, due to the severe impairment of the immune system, patients may be combined with other diseases, which may also be manifested as red spots on the body, and whether it is painful or itchy is mainly related to the type of disease combined. Even if a rash like this appears, it is not conclusive that the patient is infected. The diagnosis of AIDS must be confirmed by blood test results from an accredited hospital or CDC. If you are diagnosed with HIV, you should not use medication on your own, but rather go to a regular medical facility to avoid delays in treatment.
