Licking scrotum, she had cold sore

Hello!

I visited sex worker 2 days ago. We didn't have sex, I only asked her to lick my scrotum while I was masturbating myself. She never touched my penis with her mouth.

After the visit (the same day) I was worried that she may had cold sore that I haven't noticed so I called her and asked for that. She replied that she indeed had some small cold sore. It had to be small because I didn't noticed that myself.

I understand that licking testicles is not very risky in terms of getting STD, but I'm worried about herpes. How risky this encounter was? Can I contract HSV from this?

Thank you for the reassurance! Yes, she didn't suck it or anything rough. I'm not sure if I she touched my scrotum with her lip, but I had read on the forums that virus have to be "massaged into" the skin through friction.

If she briefly touched me with cold sore, should I be ok?
