Is the glans red and swollen on the second day after sexual intercourse? Is it AIDS?

Patient's question:

On February 5th, I had sex (unprotected oral sex, protected vaginal sex). The next day, I noticed redness and swelling on my glans. Am I infected with HIV?

Doctor's answer:

The redness and swelling of the glans are usually caused by local inflammatory stimulation, and it is recommended to actively implement antibacterial and anti-inflammatory treatment. This is not a symptom of AIDS. It is advised to actively use potassium permanganate solution for local soaking, while taking vitamin C, azithromycin, and ciprofloxacin orally for treatment. During this period, maintain a light diet and pay attention to keeping the local area clean and hygienic. In addition to immediate treatment, patients with redness and swelling of the glans should also maintain a positive mood in their daily lives.
