Fisting

Dear Doctor.  I met someone who was in to fisting.  I was the inserting partner and he was the bottom.  After it was done, I realized there was a small cut on my hand, about 1/10th to 1/20th the size of a dime.  It was small.  I don't remember when I cut my hand, but it was at least the day before.  It hadn't completely scabbed up, but it certainly wasn't bleeding.  There was a small flap over the cut as well.  It was circular in size.  

I don't know his HIV status.  My questions are:

(1) Am I at risk for HIV with this?
(2) Am I at risk for HepC?

Thank you for your help.

Thank you Teak.  I was concerned the crisco could have done something to the condom.

The reason I ask is that if all of her information has been incorrect that means her advice to me that I am not at risk is incorrect as well.  Am I at risk?

Unprotected anal sex is the main source of Hiv among gays
but you used a condom so you need not worry
but always use a water based lubricant

Thank you, Teak.  Quick follow up.  The lubricant that was used was Crisco.  I penetrated his anus after the fisting.  I was wearing a condom.  I was in there for a short amount of time, not more than a minute or two.  I am reading that Crisco and condoms are no good for each other.  The condom didn't break.  Am I at risk?

Thank you so much.
