lap dance, kiss, STD

Hi,
I visited a strip club recently..I had few lap dances..There was no mouth to mouth contact or contact with genitals, but
the girl kissed me few times on ears and cheek..I kissed her on her breasts and neck.

1) Is there a chance of contracting HSV1 or HSV2 through this contact if she had these?

2) Is there a chance of contracting any other STD through such contacts?

Thanks

The lap dance clearly did not put you at risk for genital herpes.

As to oral herpes (HSV1), it's predominantly transmitted through passionate kissing in adults. HSV2 is very uncommon orally.

This is a very low risk for herpes (assuming she even had it). Quite honestly, you could already have it and not know; over 1/2 the adult population has oral herpes, and many of us get it in childhood from the big smooch from Auntie.

The chances of you catching anything from such contact is slim to none. If you dont have any symptoms i wouldn't worry about it at all. If anything comes up go see a doctor but based on the situation i wouldnt worry.
