bleeding gums

Hi

I recently had an encounter with a woman on a night out. We only did kissing and some fumbling about. I did play with her vagina that was wet but during doing this I did on a number of occasions put my wet fingers in my mouth and lick them. I do also suffer from bleeding gums, espescially when I brush my teeth. I am at any risk of STD's?

Also 3 days later I had a sore throat, swollen and stiff neck. It did ease up after about 5 days but has now returned on the other side.

Thanks very much for your help.

Mouth saliva contains enzimes that kill bacteria. Also STD's need a specific enviornment to be a risk for contracting like unprotected vaginal, oral and anal sex. It dosent survive on  finger tips.

Thanks for your comment Tony.

Can you or anyone alabarate why this was not a risk? Especially when I have bleeding gums and i'm putting wet fingers in my mouth!

I'm worried as its six weeks after and I've started to feel nauseus all the time.

Thanks
