HIV & Oral sex concern

Let me preface this by saying that I realise how low the risk is and read the countless responses of it.

I had oral sex, both gave and received from a new partner recently. 5 days later and I started getting mouth ulcers on my tongue, clusters of them and they're painful. Googling them, they're called 'lie bumps' sometimes and can go with stress, dietary changes etc. These have come with red marks on the roof of my mouth towards my throat and I can feel a spot/sore on my gums behind my front bottom teeth that I can't see well enough.

It's been a week now and they're looking like they'll be gone within 2 days I'd say. During the...event he kissed me and sucked on the inside of my lower lip and it really hurt and I'm concerned that this may have opened up an entry point to infection. It wasn't a pleasant encounter, such an atrocious kisser and awful at giving a blowjob too - teeth!

I haven't been to the GUM clinic yet as my car is in and since 72 hours had well passed when I noticed, there isn't any difference anyway.

Any advice? :(

Thanks for the reply. Just concerned that the risk is low, rather than not impossible. And the mouth sores etc.

Well.. you obviously know what the answer is going  to be. That you had no risk and hiv is not transmitted orally.
