HIV Prevention (Expert Forum)
bodily fluids everywhere

Dr. I have been visiting massage parlors for about a year now. I always get Hand Jobs Only. I always though this was a safe way to go outside my marriage. This was until a friend of mine got me to think.
He ask me, "Arent you worried about all of the sperm that must be laying all over the massage table and oil bottles ect." "Who knows if any of those men are infected with HIV." He said I could be laying in it, the massage girl could have not washed her hands, or there could have been sperm on the oil bottle that she didnt wipe off. He said there were a number of places she could come in contact with infected sperm and then massage my penis with it on her hands." So I have been very scared the last couple of weeks. My last HIV test Was 6 months ago for a life insurance poilcy. The last 3-4 day I think I have been looking for symptoms I saw on the internet, I keep feeling weird sensations in my groin and neck, I dont know if my nodes are swolen, but something feels weird, or could it be in my head?
Questions:
1) If the massage girl has a previous customers sperm on her hands, can it be massage into my penis and infect me.
2) Is the time between customers (10-15min) enough time for HIV to be destroyed outside the body making it unable to infect in the way I described in my previous question.
3) Do I need to get another HIV test
4) can anxiety make you feel weird body sensations if your constantily paying attention to them.
Sorry for the long question. Your advice is greatly appreciated, Sorry my english isnt the greatest.

Sorry, the disclaimer on this forum's home page means what it says:
'Questions that duplicate other frequent ones, for which abundant replies exist, and that have little educational value for other forum users, will be DELETED WITHOUT RESPONSE. YOUR PAYMENT WILL NOT BE REFUNDED. The most common examples of such questions are those about low risk exposures to HIV, such as oral sex, condom- protected intercourse hand-to-genital exposure, and nonsexual contact with possibly infected blood or body fluids as well as symptoms of early HIV infection.'
There is no risk from the things you describe. If you want to continue further discussion, take it over to the HIV Support forum.
