Received oral with blood

Hi, I'm a bisexual man and today I met some guy who performed oral sex to me. I don't know his status. The problem is that I had to stop because I saw blood in my glans while he was doing it. I think all the blood was mine (there was a couple of drops maybe, it's not like it was all red or anything) because I discovered right away a cut beside the uretra tip which was bleeding. I asume he cut me with his teeth while performing.
But the reality is that I don't know (though very difficult) that he was also bleeding or not.
Did I have hiv risk in this situation? Please help me... right now I'm totally terrified and don't know what to do.
Thanks in advance

You don't need testing for HIV.

What you are describing is not a direct contact (which is the only way HIV con be transmitted). Outside the body, the virus is really fragile and looses its capacity of infection. The only way you can get HIV is through:

-Sharing needles to inject drugs.
-Unprotected anal/vaginal penetrations.
-Mother to child.

In 40 years of history there has never been a single case of infection from a external surface, even if it was contaminated with infected fluids.

Ok, thank you very much. so I assume I don't have to get tested over this situation and move on, right?

Even if. Saliva contains over a dozen different enzymes and proteins that inhibits HIV transmission.

even if he was also bleeding? It's very difficult that he bleeded at the same time, but considering that I had an open bleeding cut, i'm really scared

Because when I got it out his mouth I cleaned my glans with kleenex and when I squeazed it, a little more blood appeared. And I saw the cut, it was very thin but it was there. And it stings a little, too.

Why do you think it was your blood?
