Its scaring me :(

Help me please i am terrified and scared to death... :(

I am 21 year old male from india and was at a private laboratry on june 12th for my blood test as prescribed by my college for an entry into football team ( some requirement ) and after that next day ( on 13th june ) i went to have another blood test  And the lady was retarded who drew my blood because Before drawing blood she was injecting some blood into a test tube ( apparatus ) and then she touched that blood with naked hand and fingers ( NO GLOVES ) and it was a blood of hiv + female or male ( i saw it on test tube it was clearly written 'hiv+ sample' ) and then immidiately like after 5-6 seconds she rubbed my arm with her fingers to find my vein to have a blood draw and my arm portion ( where you can find vein to blood draw) was red and not much intact and heal because of previous blood draw and it was only a a day ago ( on 12th june ) and i have seen blood on her fingers and my arm .. Unfortunetly my girlfriend calls me at that moment and i told nurse to stop and i talked with my girlfriend for 14-15 minutes then i realize i have blood on my arm .. I was shocked and washed my arm with soap and water .. Then i told that nurse and she told me that You are fine it was just a drop of blood .!! :(

I am worrying on this questions please please put some advice it will warmly appriciate..

1- Is that 1 day old needle poked arm portion is enough to transmit HIV because it was red and not much intact..???

2- is 1-2 drops of blood volume is enough for hiv transmission ?? Should it affect me in my case??

3- I have washed my arm after 14-15 minutes and it is my biggest mistake because its make difference right?

4- am i infected ? My chances and risk ?

Please please please help me because i have swallon lymph nodes in my groin and neck but my mom dint feel it and she told me it is not .. I have little fever and constant fatigue ... Is this ARS?? I am experiencing this after  15 days from exposure..!

Please help me god bless you All
