can one get hiv infected by physical(anal) relation between men?

Question:

if two males enjoy anal sex is there a possibility for hiv infection?
Answers:
If the sex was unprotected, then yes, there is the possibility of HIV infection. Any unprotected sex is risky, as HIV can transmit through open cuts and enter the bloodstream. During anal intercourse, there is a VERY high chance that there will be some (possibly microscopic) tearing, and if infected seamen were to enter that, infection would be possible.

Use a condom. Condoms are 99% effective in preventing HIV transmission if used correctly. If you have any other questions, please do not hesitate to contact your local department of public health. Free testing is available, as well as risk reduction, and post-infection counseling.

Other Answers:
Yes, there's always that possibility. Both need to get checked out, ramdom sex only gets you in trouble.
