Cut in finger and semen spilt can be infectious?

Hi,

Sometimes back i had a mutual masturbation with a man...When i masturbated for him his semen spilled on my index finger and I had a superficial cut in my finger and the semen covered the cut on my finger. Though i wiped i could wash after 5 mins only.

That incident is still causing fear of HIV or other STD infection. Recently i found this forum and thought of posting my question to get some help or advice if i have to test for HIV and am still having the  fear. Please answer....Thanks in advance..

Even though i had a cut when the semen was over the cut on my finger, can i consider that hand with cut to semen contact also had no risk?

Hello,
Hand to genital contact is not considered as a risk of HIV transmission.
Take care

The cut in my finger was not a deep cut..it was just on the very surface of the skin...but still i fear and suspect as the semen covered would have got in to the skin or cut...
