sores in mouth and HIV infection through oral sex

Hi i recently asked a question about a one night stand that i had and how i didnt notice i had a canker sore and some other sores in my throat until after everything happened.  if there were sores while i was performing oral sex to a man and i tasted pre-*** (but spat it out) why is it that you still answered that there was no risk of HIV infection?  i would like to know know because although i dont think that any of the sores i noticed were open or bleeding I am not 100% sure and would like to know my risk of HIV in this case.  I dont know anything about the person i was with and if i had noticed the sores before i met up with him i would have never done anything.  I didnt notice the sores because the dont and didnt hurt.  i had been a little sore of the throat but nothing that would have made me worry.  i havent been cought blood or anything prior or after my one night stand, still i am worried of possible HIV infection.  Thank you.

Salivia latches onto the blood, no don't worry about HIV

thank you for answering, but even if ( the guy was well hung) the penis made contact with the back of my throat where the sores are making the pre-*** more likely to have had direct contact with the sores and because of the friction in my throat could have irritated or perhaps burst one, does that not put me at risk? even if saliva does act as an inhibitor should i be worried of the possibility of direct contact between the pre-*** and the sores? there might have been blood i don't know... or does saliva inhibit it even if there is blood?

This would not be considered a risk as salvia prohibits HIV infection
