Urinating after

i have a very usual exposure...i had sex with a sex worker...i wore condom...although im not sure if it is intact bec its dark...the sex lasted 10-20 mins...i did not finish the intercourse because i cannot keep my penis erection...then when i will remove the condom i saw it is wrinkled (i think it is intact although not that sure) then after 20 minutes i think, i urinated...i checked my penis it has no cuts or anything...my scrotum has a little dryskin..like an old skin...

my questions are
1. is urinating will help prevent transmission?(bec. urethra is the only entrance of the virus if ur penis has no cuts)
2. do i have to worry? and get tested?

thank you everybody...

It's said it MAY be of some help, because the thinking is that you are clearing out the route it travels, but this may not be true at all. I read this in the Kinsey Report more than 10 years ago man so who knows? I would'nt count on it as anything major though if that's what your thinking man, it may be a wives tale cswcsw, anyway you wore protection...safe.

1. I've read that urinating is a benefit after sex but not a means of protection in itself.
