        I am a 30 years old male,2 weeks ago I went to a massage parlor for body massage,at the end of the 1 hourmassage she massage my penis until  I ejacuate and she cleaned with towel, I don't whether it was a clean towel. From that day I couldn't sleep,I am worried about getting HIV from the massage. 5 days after the massage I had some burning sensation on my penis, it's not painful and I don't feel it always. 7 days after the massage I had fever and I went see the doctor.They checked my urine to test any kind of STDs like Gonnorea ...and the urine test was negative. The doctor told I have throat infection and prostate infection. did I get these infection from the massage parlor? Are these infections  any symptoms for STD or HIV?,are there any chance getting HIv from her hand or that towel? I am worried about HIV, please help me

hiv is transmitted through...
unprotected vaginal / anal intercourse
sharing iv drug works
mother to child

hiv is NOT transmitted through environmental surfaces or inanimate objects.  once exposed to air, hiv becomes inactive and looses it's ability to infect.

you had NO risk
