Risk from Erotic massage event
Hi,
I hope this is a silly question but I have a worry.
10 days after this "exposure" I had a small rash on my chest, probably about the size of a coin, in the centre of my rib cage above the stomach (red and a couple of pimples). I was worrying it could be ARS after the following exposure.
Stupidly after several drinks, I went for an "erotic massage" which involved having a naked massage from a lady who would rub her body against you before masturbating you. I began to sober up when it got to that stage and I stopped her after she touched my penis.
What worries me, as I see with many people, is what bodily fluids (semen/vaginal secretions) she may have had on her hands. I know it has been written here that cuts on your body don't represent a risk, I didn't have "cuts" but I had 2 insect bites. One was relatively new, on my neck, which I had been scratching shortly earlier that evening. The other was on my arm, a few days old, but even now today if I squeeze it blood and puss would come out.
Finally, I fear that the lady had used the towel I had used to dry myself after my shower.
Would any of these represent a risk of HIV infection? I know cuts don't necessarily, due to contacting the relevant cells. What worries me (I hope stupidly) is that when insect bites create lumps in the skin and easy bleeding that access to cells is enhanced.
I would really value your feedback.
Thanks.
