Sauna Stress

Sauna Stress

I masturbated in a sauna with a guy. I asked him if he is afraid of catching a disease and he says he always plays it safe. Well so we were masturbating and he came up to me and grabbed my penis. He had some of his pre-cum on his hand and he masturbated me for a while. The next day i noticed I had a tiny little piece of broken skin on my penis. I don't know if he had HIV or not. Should I be worried. I'm not even sure if I had that tiny broken skin the day before cuz i masturbated the following day at home. I have never ever done this so it was my first time. I'm kind of scared. Please explain to me the risks.

HIV is unable to reproduce outside its living host (unlike many bacteria or fungi, which may do so under suitable conditions), except under laboratory conditions; therefore, it does not spread or maintain infectiousness outside its host.

So according to what everyone is saying. Pre-cum to hand to penis with a tiny possible cut does not transmit HIV especially in sauna.

Stop examining yourself, you are not in the slightest bit qualified to determine your HIV through self examination. HIV cannot be determined by the amount or lack of symptoms.

You have had an absolutely zero risk exposure, there is no way HIV can be transmitted through the circumstances you describe.

Get a new hobby, rather than freaking out over a non issue.
