std risk from protected oral?

[concernedpapa]

Hello All,

About a week ago I visited a sex worker and received protected oral.  Virtually all contact was protected by the condom.  However, for a brief moment (~1 sec) she licked / kissed the upper area of my scrotum below the condom.  I immediately directed her back to the protected area and made no other skin to skin contact.  

My primary concern is HSV (I or II).  I have previously been tested due to another scare and know that I am negative for both types.  Does anyone know the risk here?  Does the duration of contact matter?  Does the fact that the contact was with my scrotum, not my penis reduce my risk?

I'm pretty worried and will probably be tested when I can regardless of what I hear or experience over the next couple of weeks, but I'm eager to get outside input.

Thanks.

Thanks guys.  This definitely helps to ease my mind.

I will also agree that I'm way to paranoid to frequent sex workers.  I think that this is my last trip.  

I'm going to put this behind me (if possible) and try to move on.  

Thanks again for your reassuring comments.

I concur. You really have nothing to worry about mate.

It is quite rare that STD's are transferred orally anyway and you are talking about miliseconds of contact.

However - I would like to say this. If you're the type of person who gets really worried about STD's then you really shouldn't be visiting sex workers. Not because they are likely to infect you with something but for the fact that you're not going to have any peace of mind afterwards due to your overactive mind!

you weren't at any risk.  You are worrying about nothing.
