Reassurance

Hello all

I wonder if someone could help me, first time I have posted on here.

I have some issues that are starting to play on my mind and wondered if you all would be willing to help me work out if I have been at risk.

I am a 31 year gay man, I have had sexual encounters with 3 men in the last six weeks. I dont know their status and did ask all advised negative and STD free, but you cant take that at face value. I engaged in deep kissing, mutual masturbation and oral with a condom on (both ways) nothing further.

I am assessing what sort of risk I have put myself at, could anyone confirm what I have read online for the following:

1. deep kissing, no risk for HIV or STDs unless cuts in mouth etc. therefore no risk?
2. Mutual Masturbation, no risk for HIV or STD, however I know I had cuts on my hand that were fresh from the morning as I injured my hand but have read on here that the wound would have to be large and bleeding and mine were not therefore - no risk? although the semen did directly get onto the nicks. still though - no risk?
3.Oral Sex with a condom on - no risk for HIV or STD? but since i engaged in oral with a condom on - no risk?

The reason I am asking is that I have a finger infection today which has puss coming from and I wanted to make sure that this could not be STD related before I attend the Doctors next week.

Thanks for your help.

Alan
