CSW Cunnilingus and HIV

[accordh22]

I recently went to an Asian Massage parlor. I had protected oral sex and briefly performed cunnilingus on the her. There was no sex. Is there a risk of HIV infection

Your question was answered previously and in this thread that it is no risk.

It is always scary, especially with so much misinformation.

The only risks are having unprotected vaginal or anal intercourse and sharing IV needles to inject drugs. Air and saliva inactivate the virus. Nothing else is a risk and not scary.

Thanks for the response...I have seen it before on other post.

I don't know why you didn't believe it then. It's time to move on.

Your situation involves personal contact with an object in air  ( body, fluids,  mouth, maybe blood, cuts,   etc. ). You will be happy to learn that you had no risk, because you can't get hiv from personal contact except unprotected penetrating vaginal or anal with a penis, neither of which you did and you didn't share hollow needles to inject with which is the only other way to acquire hiv - there are ONLY 3 ways to get hiv. Note that 2 of them require a penis and the third requires a hollow injecting shared needle - there are no OTHER ways to get hiv. Analysis of large numbers of infected people over the 40 years of hiv history has proven that people don't get hiv in the way you are worried is a risk.
Hiv is a fragile virus in air or saliva and is effectively instantly dead in either air or saliva so the WORST that could happen is dead virus rubbed you, and obviously anything which is dead cannot live again so you are good. Blood and cuts would not be relevant in your situation since the hiv has become effectively dead, so you don't have to worry about them to be sure that you are safe.
There is no reason for a person to test when they are safe. The advice took into consideration that the other person might be positive, so move on and enjoy life instead of thinking about this non-event. hiv prevention is straightforward since there are only 3 ways you can become infected, so next time you wonder if you had a risk, ask yourself this QUESTION. "Did I do any of the 3?" Then after you ANSWER "No, I didn't" you will know that it's time to move on back to your happy life.
No one got hiv from what you did during 40 years of hiv history and no one will get it in the next 40 years of your life either.  You can do what you did any time and be safe from hiv.
The other person's status is irrelevant when you have no exposure to live virus.
