Can I get an STD/STI from grinding with clothes?

Hi, I had an experience with another guy where I kept my pants on and engaged in dry humping his bare buttocks/anus. My genitals were completely covered but my hands did touch his bare back and the cheeks of his bare buttocks. Also, after grinding I did masturbate myself, so not sure if my genitals touched my pants after they were exposed to his anus or if my hands could have transferred anything to my penis after touching his skin. I am very nervous about HPV and Herpes from this. Am I at risk? Please help.

Herpes is not transmitted that way. You had zero risk so stop freaking out.

It is just so weird to have this burning sensation, not sure what else it could be. It isn't red or anything and only started last night. Any other suggestions on what could cause this?

Totally freaking out. I feel like I have a tingling/cool sensation on the shaft of my penis. Is there any way I could have contracted herpes from touching his skin with my hands and then touching my penis??? I read it could be transmitted from skin to skin contact??? Shedding skin cells?

Thank you. So there could have been no exposure from my hand to my penis or from my pants touching my penis when I masturbated?
