worried please help

Hi, please don't delete my post, I am very worried as I had a finger prick test last week that came back as negative. I have ocd really bad and now I am worried, because I opened the door at the clinic with the finger exposed that i had the finger prick test on. Would I be in any danger from blood on a door handle getting into the finger prick cut. I am also diabetic and i read that it takes longer for cuts to heal with a diabetic, it was about 10 to 20 minutes after the finger prick test that i opened the door, please answer my post thank you

Seek a therapist to help with your anxiety. This is not a HIV issue.
