Amsterdam Herpe scare

[Youngtraveller]

Hello,

I recently made a huge mistake by going to a red light district window worker. It was a horrible experience and I will most definitely not be going back. During the experience the worker was very concerned about being clean. She made me wash my hands before, she used a disinfectant wipe on me before putting on a condom, she use a disinfectant wipe on herself and she would not let me touch the condom once she put it on me. She even pulled a hostipal bed paper sheet over the bed, similar to if you were at a clinic. She performed oral sex on me with the condom and then we proceed to vaginal sex. Both were relatively breif however, I did touch the outside part of her vagina with my bare fingers. When I finished she took the condom off and I thought I felt something wet touch my pubic area. I wash up and left. After words, I took a shower immediately and shaved, as I immediately began worrying about contracting something. I haven't had any signs of contacting anything on my genitals (burning, liaisons, itching) but about 1 day or two later, my lower abdomin area began to ache. I'm not sure if it's from all the consistent worrying or if it's because I contacted herpes or clamydia since that is one of the symptoms. It's been about a week and I already submitted a sample for std testing and the aches continue. What do you think my risk are and am I just over concerned or is the soreness in my lower abs/pubic area a concern?

Thanks.

It's not a concern for herpes and your exposure was little to no risk. Far closer to no risk at all. You shouldn't be worried about this encounter. It was about as safe as you can get.
