risk of receiving footjob

Hi,
Yesterday I met one of my friends. He had just broken up with his girlfriend. I gave him handjob and he game me footjob. Then I used my hands to reach climax for both of us.
Now my worry is that if we are close together we might touch sometimes. I might also touch his pre-cum and than touch mine. Or he might have cuts on his feet that I did not notice.
Is there a risk? Do I need to take pep?

Now it is over 72h and my doctor also said that I did not need PEP. Everything I search supports that it was safe, I know it was safe, but I am still anxious. I will receive tests, and share my negative results here in two, four, and maybe six weeks. I hope this can help me become calm, and other people have the same question.

Since you had no exposure the test would only be a placebo, so there is no reason to post it. Everyone here except you knows that you are negative.
Your best option is to seek therapy now if you are so worried about this non event that you are planning to test. Life is not meant to be lived in fear of something that doesn't even exist.

You explained the situation well originally, so the advice can't change now. "HIV is a fragile virus in air or saliva and is effectively instantly dead in either air or saliva so the worst that could happen is dead virus rubbed you, "

Your situation involves personal contact with an object in air  (her mouth which is not a risk for hiv.) No worries, because you can't get hiv from personal contact except unprotected penetrating vaginal or anal, neither of which you did and you didn't share hollow needles to inject with which is the only other way to acquire hiv. Analysis of large numbers of infected people over the 40 years of hiv history has proven that people don't get hiv in the way you are worried is a risk.
HIV is a fragile virus in air or saliva and is effectively instantly dead in either air or saliva so the worst that could happen is dead virus rubbed you, and obviously anything which is dead cannot live again so you are good. Blood and cuts would not be relevant in your situation since the hiv has become effectively dead, so you don't have to worry about them to be sure that you are safe. Safe people do not need PEP.
You might get Covid if he had it.

I made a mistake, so ignore that advice and use this one instead.
Your situation involves personal contact with an object in air  (his penis, hands, feet etc. which is not a risk for hiv.) No worries, because you can't get hiv from personal contact except unprotected penetrating vaginal or anal, neither of which you did and you didn't share hollow needles to inject with which is the only other way to acquire hiv.

But we use lubricant on feet and penis, will it affect the fact that objects are in air?
