Licking Finger Hep B risk

[Inneed101]

Hello. I went to a strip club 23 days ago and was in the VIP section getting a lap dance. I ended up fingering her vagina and then at one point pulled the finger out and stupidly licked it. She was wet and as I recall my finger was a little wet too. A few days later I recalled the incident thinking why the heck did I do that and began to get worried about an STD, At first HIV, but if I'm correct that would not be a risk. My concern now is Hep B. Just yesterday I felt a little indigestion and I swear I am having a little sensitivity and maybe a little swelling near my liver. No other symptoms and it is only a little of 3 weeks. Everything I read said at least a month before symptoms. What is the possibility of getting Hep B that way? Could I be having symptoms this early and when can I test?

Does anyone know the probability of getting HBV by fingering and then licking the finger (with vaginal fluids on it)? I hear mixed opinions on this regarding cunnilingus, but nothing about licking finger.

I would wait 6 months

Thank you. How long do I need to wait before testing? It has only been 25 days.

Probably the symptoms you experienced are coming from your head because you are affraid and thinking of hbv. I think you are fine but always to be sure you need to do the hbv blood test and you will know for sure. But again sunce you are not an infant and i assume you don't have HIV then even if you encounter hbv you will get ride of it within 6 months

To recap my post- Sunday afternoon i started feeling a little discomfort, and it progressed slowly throughout Monday. By Monday evening my upper right stomach area (my liver) was tender for sure. My stomach a little uneasy, but I didn't feel bad otherwise. Monday night I might have had a slight fever. I felt cold and my forehead was a little warm. Not much though. I keep warm and fell asleep early. When i woke up this morning, everything seemed to go away. I now feel perfectly fine. Is it possible my immune system beat HBV this quickly? All the literature says I was too early for symptoms and they went away too quickly.

Even if you get HBV you will clear it within 6 months unless you are an infant or have HIV
