Fingering + HIV

Can you please advise if HIV transmission is possible through vaginal fingering.

Small cut (from picking cuticle approximately 5-6 hours prior to incident)
Was not bleeding at the time.
Finger inserted for approximately 3 secs.
Huge anxiety directly after the incident.
Next day had tight neck/lymph areas. Not sure if anxiety caused or early symptoms.

Thankyou for any advice

It is not possible, even with a cut on your finger.
