Very scared - please help

I am a male in his 30s. A week ago, during a business trip, I visited a nigtclub where I had protected sex with condom with a prostitute.  In addition I introduced my finger in her vagina.  In that place, I used a hot tube and smoked mentholed cigarretes and I am not a great smoker.
Three days after that irresponsible encouter I presented symtoms of amigdalitis, my doctor prescribed azytromycin 500 mg for 6 days.  Since I am so ashamed, I did not tell my doc about that sexual encounter
I am terrified since I am a married man, and I do not want to put my wife at risk.
Please let me know what are my risk of getting a STD including HIV

Hi, Sorry to ask again, but I still feel bad about my behabior and afraid about a possible outcome.
Remenbering everything that happended that day, I recalled that while I was in a hot tube, the dancer approached her but scheeks to my face and my mouth briefely touched the lower part of her vaginal and annal region.
As I described before, this ecounter was 13 days ago, and 3 days later I was with what appears to be tonsillitis.  I experienced mild sore throats and mild fever.  As of today, after the anti biotic treatment, I feel fine; however, At the back of my throat I can see a little redness and micro white spots on my right tonsil.  I call my doctor and she said that the white dots may be from food residues since my tonsils are quite large.
Do you think that this is a herpes symtom?

The antibiotic you took will treat strep. really no reason to follow up for testing in 15 days.

A finger in the vagina is not a real std risk. You could contract herpes or hpv that way - on your finger- but you've had symptoms of neither so time to move forward.

Thanks for your response Grace. The doctor did not swab my throat because I started the antibiotic treament a day prior I visit her.
She said I had to wait 15 days to get a throat culture so she can find if I have any strep.

Just to be sure... Is introducing a finger into a woman vagina a possible risk of std infection?

Usually sore throats are due to viruses. Did they swab your throat for strep?

You had protected sex. We recommend it because it works!! You were not at real risk for std's from a one time protected encounter.
