Received Rimming, std concerns

[Weho27]

Recently went to reputable massage spa. Was rubbed very thoroughly up and down my legs and even inside my buttocks. At one point i felt what i thought was the therapists tongue in my anus. But I’m not sure it wasn’t his fingers. It happened so fast. Am i at risk for any stds with this contact? Is rimming a risk if that’s what happened? Thank you

If you mean it's a reputable massage spa like a non-sexual one, I'd be very surprised if it was his tongue, but then again, his hands shouldn't be inside your buttocks, either, during a non-sexual massage.

In any case, there is no risk from hands at all.

If it was his tongue, how long do you think that lasted? It sounds like a couple of seconds, maybe? If that's true, that's not long enough to transmit anything.

Rimming carries a risk for gonorrhea, syphilis and genital herpes type 1 if it lasts long enough to transmit anything. There's no real scientific time for how long that takes, but we know that a quick kiss on the lips isn't likely to transmit oral herpes, but a longer one with friction is more likely.

I wouldn't worry at all if I were you.
