Clarification on Risk

Dear doctor
1. among all your answers on the forum there is something I don't find a clear answer about fingering with cut. How big has to be the cut on a finger to get myself infected if I insert the finger in the woman sex. Does it has to be at least as big as it would need stitches?
After fingering a girl, I saw I had a small cut 3mm long cut, not very deep, in the middle of my finger.
2. Is that any risk?
3. If I did that cut just before fingering her (1 min before) and it was a bit bleeding, was I at risk for HIV or it was 0 risk
4. Do I need testing?
Thank you very much for your answer.

Your question confuses me, stating that we have not been clear about the risk from masturbation of a partner, IF that partner has HIV, with a cut on one's finger.  We have answered that question multiple times weekly for years.  The answer is NO RISK.  HIV has not EVER been escribed to be transmitted through masturbation - NEVER!  The presence of a 4 mm cut on the finger would not change this.  

1.  No risk with a 3mm cut.  No risk at all.  .
2.  No, no risk
3.  Still no risk.
4.  No, you do not need testing related to the exposure you have described.  

I hope these comments are helpful to you. EWH
