very sophisticated question
no unless you share same razor or blade or nail cutter with an hiv positive person or you have sexual relationship with an hiv positive person it can't be transferred.
Don't panic and please don't overthink
no hiv can't be transmitted through blister fluid
No it can't
Kindly book an appointment for detail history.
Simple skin contacts with unbroken skin does not spread HIV virus.No need to fear regarding the scenario in your question.
HIV is transmitted through sexual contacts ,Sharing needles,razor blades,etc
It is spread through semen,vaginal discharge-,rectal fluids,blood.Also transmitted from an infected mother to baby via breast milk .Risky behaviours should be avoided.
