What is the risk of HIV in this case of lips of cuts?

[worryworm1985]

I got kissed on the right edge of my lips by a commercial sex worker. There was no other sexual contact.

Now, i know that HIV is not transmitted through saliva, but I still found it disgusting. So I went to the restroom immediately after she kissed the edge of my lips.

I looked into the mirror and saw a very small smudge/tinge of blood at the area where she kissed me.
I washed my lips with water; basically cupping my hands to hold the water and splashing and whipping my cup hands over my mouth, from the right edge of the lips (where she kissed me), over my lips, to the left edge of lips.
it was only after I did that, that i noticed a small cut on my lips.

Literature says there is a small risk of HIV transmission if there is contact between blood between and open wound and HIV blood.

I fear that in this case, in the process of washing my lips, i accidentally "pushed" the blood from where she kissed me to the part of my lips where the cut is!!! :(((

HIV is inactivated in saliva and air which means it can't infect from oral which includes kissing. So those are 2 reasons you had zero risk. Double zero risk.
No one in 40 years of history got HIV from oral.  Even with blood, lactation cuts, rashes, burns etc saliva and air do not allow inactivated virus to infect, so you had zero risk

Hmmmm

I do feel a lot less anxious.

Thanks!

But out of curiosity, izn't our lips free of saliva? If both lips have cuts and there to transfer between,isn't that a transmission?

I haven't checked in the last week, but the 40 years preceding is a pretty good sign.
