Handjob variation...

I was getting a massage at an Asian massage parlor. I was on my stomach. I felt a little moisture on her fingers as she massaged my lower back and scrotal area(and near the opening of anus.) I asked if she was using oil,cream or saliva. She said she wasn't using anything(I did just get showered there.) My concern is this: Am I at an Hiv risk if she massaged some of her saliva on me? I don't have any cuts or wounds. I closely examined her hands afterwards and saw no bleeding,cuts,scrapes,sores,wounds. Do I need testing? Can I resume normal relations with my spouse? Thank you.

The hand job question, including the hand-job-with-saliva-as-lubricant question, has been asked many times on this forum.  Even if she lied about the saliva, there was no risk for HIV and you do not need testing.  I never guarantee someone isn't infected with something, but assuming you have no other HIV risks, sex with your spouse should be safe.
