Need advice! Very worried please!!

Dear Sir/Madam,

I need your advice as I am really worried about a situation! I went to a massage parlour and I received a hand job from the lady, I too touched her vagina, I am just worried if any of the liquid got on my finger and I immediately touched the tip of my penis. This happened five days before and now I am freaking out very badly. My whole visit was less than 15 minutes. Could you please assure me for below questions:

1) Am I at any sort of HIV risk considering the above scenario and get tested?
2) Do I need to get tested for other STIs?
3) I am really worried as I am getting worried within the 3 months of window period (10 weeks to be precise) and really worried if I will pass this to my partner?   Do you think this concern is anywhere near to being realistic in thinking or I am just too far ahead of myself?

To be honest, technically I do feel I am very safe, but need a professional advice and get this worry out of my system completely.

Your quick response would be greatly appreciated.

Once again, Thank you so much, you all are great

this was not any risk for a std. you don't need any testing from this encounter.  this certainly was not a risk for hiv!!!

your red bumps don't sound std related either. they very well could be a fungal infection or a reaction to the massage oil used.  if they continue, be seen for a proper exam and diagnosis.

keep rereading what we've already posted, not asking the same questions over and over again.

perhaps your money would be better spent with some professional counseling than with std testing?

unfortunately, I too don't know what is stopping me from believing them who are surely telling me the Truth, may be just coz one or two other sources have said there might be some sort of risk involved and I am freaking out!

Sorry for this, a bit difficult for me to explain how i am feeling at the moment!

Could you please one last time put everything in straight words for my two questions and I will disappear!

1) No risk for HIV or any other STDs?
2) No Testing required based on this incident?

so why aren't you believing people who are telling you that you don't need to get tested?

Thank you Grace!

There was no body massage, it was just 15 minutes encounter all together where I only received a hand job from the lady and touched her vagina for less than a minute! And now worried that in that one minute if any liquid fluid stick to my finger and came in contact with the tip of my penis as I mentioned in the original question!

No oral sex, no anal or vaginal sex , nothing!

No cuts or sores on my hand, not entirely sure about her though!

To be honest I always had this red dots on my skin, they come and go on their own and never hurts, itch or anything!

Most of them are reddish and flat with the skin surface and some of them are a bit red bumpy (very small though) !

I have also consulted on other forums and have spoke to couple of Sexual Health Specialists (Aids Vancouver, Forum Health, Metrosexual Health London) and all said I don't need no testing at all!

I still have decided to get tested at 10 weeks as that is the best I could do before the marriage, just to have a better feel of everything and relax myself!

Do you think this 10 week test considering the incident would be conclusive?

Sorry for the same question again!, your last response made me feel better and a response again would be great!!!

Please advice

Thank you so much!

Just go and have it checked out as the doc will tell you everything and would be good to clear this information up before you get married

Also I had noticed few red bumps on my left stomach area! To be honest I always had this on my skin, they come and go on their own and never hurts, itch or anything!

Most of them are reddish and flat with the skin surface and some of them are a bit red bumpy (very small though) . . . Should I still consider them as the normal skin behaviour I always had or anything to concern about considering this activity in the massage parlour?

Thanks Life360,

Can I go for 4th generation Elisa as they say it is almost accurate at 3-4 weeks?

I will only be able to finish 10 weeks before marriage!

Is a test at 10 weeks conclusive enough to put everything at rest and move on?

I would say your risk is low enough to be neglected but if your worried make a doctors appointment as have real time tests done is the only real answer. Opinions are opinions but test results are test results. In your state of mind i would have some STD test done as your driving yourself mad and freaking out.

Thank you for your quick response.

The only weird feeling is that I am freaking out madly about that. It feels like I thinking too too too far ahead from the reality.

Is my risk low enough to be neglected?  Can you please give me some conclusive answer.

Any information from medical expert would be great as well!!!

Hi and welcome. im not a doctor but have some experience. Your a low risk for any STD's and even lower as you only had a hand job.
As for the getting liquid on you penis, STD's need a controled envionenment to re produce as with unprotected vaginal or anal intercouse. Cannot be transmitted through touching. As for HIV not even in the ball park to get it.
Are you having any discomfort?
If you feel that worried, have a check up as better safe than sorry.
Your anxiety is being socially driven as intimacy is supposed to be for loving and careing relationship couples. In a sense you have sined and with sin comes a sense of punishment.
Just put this behind you and have safe sex.
