Oral sex Risks

Approximately 60 days ago I received oral sex from a person, I do not know his sexual health as well as I could dare to say that I do not know if he was male or female, the point is that I performed oral sex between 3 and 4 minutes, there was no other sexual contact but specifically oral sex.
Thanks to this forum I found a lot of information about oral sex and the risks that this practice entails are really low.
My question is that after what happened, even though there is a risk, should I continue without some concern my normal life?
After the period of time that has elapsed and in fact there has not been any important symptom, what is the reality that there is a Sexually Transmitted Disease, we talk about HIV (Low Risk) But some others like Gonorrhea, Syphilis, Hepatitis B Papilloma Virus Human.
First of all Thanks for the time and the opportunity.

Oral sex is low risk - not zero, but low enough that you shouldn't loose sleep over it, especially if you're not showing any symptoms (discharge, burning, sores/lesions).  If you're sexually active, you should be getting an STI screening as a normal part of your annual physical (gonorrhea, chlamydia, HIV, and syphilis).  But, in this situation, you can safely assume that you're STI free based on your lack of symptoms.
