Fingering that involve blood

am bisexual male . I just had encounter with a guy few hours back I fingered him for few minutes.  I do not see any visible cuts or sore on my finger/hand. That happened in car after that I went to one fast food restaurant and washed my hands with soap and went for groceries.  However, after grocery i noticed something RED on my hands. I am not sure if it was blood from fingering or it got something red on my hand from grocery store

I wonder if fingering that involve blood be cause of HIV infection when I have wound and he is bleeding from anus?
Do you recommend any testing after window period or PEP at this stage

Hi, this case seems to be arising out of anxiety. For your finger to get cut, the bleeding would have been profusely and by cut i meant deeper cut which would give you pain and discomfort. Every cut that happens to the body, the cells start the healing process and thus after sometime the bleeding stops. Relax, you had no risk for HIV as fingering is never a risk any ways.

Yes. You can continue with your normal life. No need of testing in this case.

You would have also felt the pain if it would have been a prominent deep cut.

Thanks for response. You probably be right. I do not see any cut on my finger.
If my finger had been cut during the fingering I should have seen some cut there. The cut do not disappear that quickly correct?
