can i get HIv

so about 4 weeks ago i had very protected sex with a sex worker in canada bc. Basically after protected oral sex, she changed condom and had protected vaginal sex, condom wasnt tore or anything. After sex she wen tto the bathroom got a hot towel and carefully took the condom off. I have genital herpes 7 years ago, with no outbreak for ever.
my questions are , what are my chances of contracting Hiv via protected sex and also is it possible that she had vaginal fluid on the hot wet towel and rubbed in on my penis while taking the condom off
?.,
the reason i was worried was becuase just after that i masterbated with no lube and i had some bad cuts on my penis so i was worried they might be chancre or hiv symptoms.
i have had diahrea, and self proclaimed swollen lymph nodes i think the swollen lymph nodes are imaginary, since i been stressed about it and all.
i orderd an online HIV KIT waiting for in the mail i know they arent recomended but i figured they were fda aproved.
what do you think doctors? thanks

Welcome to our Forum. the exposure you describe is no risk for HIV. Use of a condom which does not break virtually eliminates any risk at all of HIV acquisition. Even if she somehow got genital secretions on a towel that she then rubbed you with, there is no risk for HIV. That you might have small cuts on your penis does not change this.
You do not need to be concerned. In fact, you have no medical reason for HIV testing. I hope this comment is helpful to you. Take care. EWH
