I was having my neck shaven with a razor at my barbers and noticed a two very small cuts on my neck/throat. Very small, I think from either where I have bumps from hair follicles or maybe there were two very small spots which got caught during the shave. Didn't think anything of it until a few moments later when I noticed a small amount of blood in very close proximity. I asked if I could have a tissue to quickly wipe it, but then the barber noticed he actually caught his finger, it was in fact his blood. He wiped it up and finished the job (with a fresh blade). It only dawned on me after that his blood may have entered my blood stream? I'm not sure, thus why I am here to see if it is a possibility.
I think I am more worried because he's openly admitted he has slept with sex workers in his home country (we have had some crazy conversations and I've been going to this place for two years and he's become very open with me).
The cuts I had were small circles size of a hair follicle and there was definitely my own blood which didn't prefusely bleed, but bled and settled on the surface. When I got home I did apply pressure to the cut and one of them did release some blood of mine.
Ive been telling myself to stop being ridiculous but after a Google I came across several bits of information which did say the depth doesn't matter, it's whether there is access to the blood stream. I assume this would be the case in this scenario? I also understand hiv dies almost immediately, but there is also a chance his cut would have came in direct contact with mine.
Could anyone advise if this is a risk I should get tested for?
