STD risk
Hi,
I was wondering my risk for exposure to STD's with a sexual encounter that I had. I am a gay man and my encounter included the following:
1) Kissing (both of us naked) with body contact
2) My partner fingered me
3) My partner rimmed me and licked my scrotum (but he did not perform a blow job)
4) My partner for a brief second placed the head of his penis on my anus but did not penetrate.
Anal sex and oral sex did NOT take place. But I am still wondering my risk for any STD's including Herpes and any other STD's that could be transmitted from skin-to-skin as well as risks from receiving the rim job. Would it be recommended to get tested following this encounter if I have no symptoms? Am I still at risk since some STD's are asymptomatic? Please advise!
