The skin is a protective barrier which when broken can expose us to infection. However, unless the broken skin has come into contact with BLOOD, semen, saliva or other bodily fluids of a person INFECTED with the HIV virus, the answer is NO.

If the nail treatment broke skin, its possible, but unlikely. In response to nails contracting the virus, this is not possible. The nail is a collection of proteins, it cannot pass the virus to the rest of your system.

If you are around someone with HIV you are ALWAYS at risk of contracting the disease, but HIV and AIDS are different. Just because you have HIV does not mean that you will contract AIDS, but you are much more likely to in the future. As long as you're careful and you are not letting this person bleed all over you you will be fine. Do NOT touch their blood if they're bleeding.
