Ten Self-Examination Methods for AIDS

Self-checking for HIV/AIDS should not rely entirely on symptoms, because many of these symptoms can also be signs of other diseases. HIV infection often presents no obvious symptoms during the initial stage, but over time, the following nonspecific symptoms may appear:

1. Persistent fever; 2. Night sweats; 3. Fatigue; 4. Weight loss; 5. Swollen lymph nodes; 6. Rash; 7. Mouth ulcers; 8. Sore throat; 9. Muscle and joint pain; 10. Neurological problems.

These symptoms do not necessarily indicate HIV infection, as they may also be caused by other conditions. The only way to confirm HIV infection is through blood tests, such as antibody testing or nucleic acid testing. If you experience any of the above symptoms or believe you may be at risk, it is recommended to seek medical attention promptly.
