[|AI|]  You are at risk for infection with HIV, hepatitis B, and hepatitis C. The risk is low, since the needle and syringe were probably old, you cleaned everything up right away, and you did not inject anything deep into the muscle or your bloodstream. Also did you see if old blood was in the syringe? That would increase the risk. That being said, there is a risk no matter how small that should be followed up. You would want to should find out if the daughter has any of these diseases. If she has HIV, you can take antiviral HIV medicines as a preventative for a short time. You also should get baseline tests for HIV, hepatitis B, and hepatitis C. These tests will need to be checked a few months later if they are negative now as they take a while to change if you've been infected. Hope this helps.
