Herpes Risk
I think I'm being pretty paranoid and anxiety is truly getting the better of me, but here we go!
As recent as 3 days ago, I was at a strip club. I received a lap dance. At no point was my penis exposed, nor pants removed. I understand and appreciate that this particular scenario is a zero risk situation.
However at one point, the stripper placed my hand on her vagina and I touched her clitoris. From there we proceeded to finish the lap dance, I paid for the dance and went home.
The time it took to get from the bar to my house was probably 10 - 15 minutes. I was pretty drunk and I can't recall if I washed my hands or not prior to urinating before passing out.
The reason that I'm freaking out, is that I suffer from eczema in the groin / penis region and I have been currently been treating a flare up for the past week or two. At the moment I have no lesions or blisters since 'exposure'. I'm worried that I may have had HSV on my hand when I touched my penis to urinate.
I suppose my questions are:
1. Does this particular exposure of touching a strippers vagina, then 10-15 minutes later touching my penis to urinate put me at any particular risk, given that I'm having an eczema outbreak?
2. How long does the herpes virus live outside of the body? Does the potency of the virus become diluted as I touch more and more objects/items with my hands?

Thank you sir!
I do appreciate this is anxiety just getting the better of me! Was worried, had said stripper had HSV, that I might have carried the virus home on my hands and when I urinated and touched my penis, it would have gotten into my body via the breaks in the skin from eczema.
Essentially without my penis touching her vagina directly, I have nothing to worry about, yeah?
I'm very happy to hear that I don't have anything to worry about!

hi
1. zero risk
2. it doesnot to any reasonable extent as is very fragile. Touching is not an issue as needs direct rubbing contact.
