On feet

Doctors,

You're both real-life heroes for dedicating your lives to this work.

Hearing from one of you, given your credentials, is worth $200 or more, I know. But please find it in your hearts to give me your professional determination, as there are some differences here compared to seemingly similar posts, i've conducted the relevant searches.  

Here's the scenario:

A woman gives someone a message all over the body. That massage ends after s handjob until ejaculation.  On the feet of the person getting the massage are:
1. a roughly m-and-m-sized, roughly one-week-old wound on the top of a toe. basically, a pea-sized, hard, dark purple scab surrounded by a halo of dry and/or newly-formed skin
2. a healing area from dry and/or dead skin ripped off and/or stripped off of the underside of a big toe. this area is also roughly a week old

no blood could be squeezed out of either area number one or two.

one of the moves during the massage was pulling of the digits to sort of stretch them out, so it's certain that her fingers came into direct contact with these two areas.

assuming the worst- that the girl was an HIV positive CSW internally saturated with recently-acquired HIV- please be so kind as to address the following questions?


1. What is the risk of the person massaged receiving HIV from this type of event?
2. is testing warranted for this event?
3. what are the chances that inconspicuous blood from her hands and/or fingers could enter the aforementioned two areas and cause hiv infection?
4. true or not: if blood cannot be squeezed out of a wound, that wound is no longer capable of becoming an entrance for HIV? (people seem to use this as a sort of litmus test, is their any scientific or medical basis for this?

Thank you for your time and professional input. There's no doubt, humanity owes a special debt of gratitude to the specialists in your field.

doctor, this will be my final post on this thread. i will not follow up with "what if" questions. i just want to make sure you're clear about my question:

what is the danger to the person RECEIVING the foot massage from the female, HIV positive CSW while the aforementioned two foot conditions are present on his foot?  

Thank you for your response. You're a great man.

Welcome to our Forum.  I must admit, you are the first client of ours who has asked about risk for HIV from contact with a lesion on a partner's foot.  I am please to tell you that there is no risk to you form the contact you describe.  By the time that a wound such as this begins to heal, even if your partner did have HIV (which is unlikely), there is no longer risk of transmission to you.  Intact skin, or for that matter, healing skin is an effective barrier to HIV transmission and/or acquisition.  The ejaculation was involved does not change this.  The fact of the matter is that during the course of mutual masturbation it is typical for each other's genital secretions to get onto one another, yet no transmission has ever occurred in this situation.  As for your specific questions:

1.  See above. Zero
2.  None
3.  As mentioned above, no risk.
4.  If blood cannot be squeezed out, there is no risk for HIV transmission.  At the same time, I would not encourage this sort of squeezing however.

Hope these comments help. EWH

i noticed a minor typo in the above. please keep in mind, doctor, that there was a handjob with ejaculation involved in the scenario described above.
