Strip Club Visit

I just wanted to know my risks regarding a lapdance visit in the uk.
I was in Birmingham 6 weeks ago for work and went to a strip joint.
I received two lapdance for about 30 mins each.
The first one she was naked apart from her panties but straddled me vigorously and I licked her nipple for a few seconds.
The second one she was completely naked and was particularly aggressive straddling me.
I was fully clothed for the whole period pants and trousers, as I’ve got a bit of a health phobia and some PTSD from a pervious no risk event apparently.
2 weeks after the event I started to develop a sore throat, which has now turned into a post nasal drip and I’m still suffering 4 weeks on with swollen parotid glands I think and also me kind of full blown viral infection.
I have no fever just pain when I swallow, my neck feels swollen but throat not red, and my lymph nodes are not swollen too, just pain underneath the ears like the parotid gland.
I’m worried some fluid might have got through my trousers and underwear and infected me with HiV.
Terrence Higgins trust told me on the phone it’s no risk.
Also the Poz forum told me it’s no risk, you have to have penetration to have a risk.
But the very well sites says dryhumping is a risk, maybe they mean without clothes.

The only risks for HIV in adults are:
1) Having unprotected anal or vaginal sex, or
2) sharing intravenous needles with IV drug users.

You cannot get HIV or any STD through clothing, no matter what. You can't get HIV from dry humping without clothing on either. The "very well" sites are wrong about that.

If in doubt, re-read items 1 and 2 listed above.

You had ZERO RISK for HIV.  There is no information you could add to this event that would make it a risk for HIV. You don't need to test for anything.

Thank you Curfew, is that purely based that you don’t see people with those exposures in the clinics or is there a specific scientific answer to why
With what has happened during the Covid pandemics believing doctors and science has taken a bit of a hit.
The risks for HIV are well-known and well-documented, and I listed them above.
Fair enough, thank you for answering
All the best to you.
