HIV Risk on Sharing Soap

[arjun807]

Dear Doctor,

I can understand HIV will not transmit in this way, but put my mind at rest I am asking this question.

I have severe back pain, so went for Ayurvedic Massage (Professional).

Had a massage, full oil on my body So, the person wiped completely and took me to bath room.

There he just poured water on me and washed my back using soap (Upper Portion)... No intention here (he was very kind)

Then I told him, you can go, I will take bath... he left bathroom... After that I used the same soap on my body including my anal, penis and all... I rubbed it...

Any HIV risk involved here by sharing the same soap... He did not use it,, he just kept the soap on his had and rubbed on my upper back portion.

Please advice... I am little scared to go again... Because I have to undergo another 2 massage treatment as per doctor advice for my back pain.

I am really waiting for your reply.
