Snorting tobacco

hello,

i have a question if it is safe doing something or if it puts you at risk of getting infected with HIV. Friends are taking tobacco mixed with water. They push it in the nose with a syringe without needle and snort it. they use the same syringes and put them either in water or let it in open air before another person uses it. I did it once and I was not aware of any blood in my nose. probably there is a risk but is this risk high? should i do an HIV test.

thank you
xxx
