STD risk Massage/handjob/anal fingering.

[sessjeff]

Hi,

i made a bad choice and went to a massage place, afterwards they asked if i wanted happy ending which i accepted. the girl used oil to give me a handjob and also fingered my anus, at first somewhat aggressive which i told her to stop. i'm freaking out over my std risks! it made me realize i most likely have mental health issues like a hypochondriac.

should i be tested? it happened 2 days ago, what are my risks?

There are no risks here at all, for anything. You don't need to test for anything at all. I'm including some links that may help.

The best thing you can do now is get some help for your anxiety and hypochondria.

Here are some posts from our experts (when we had them) that may help -

https://www.medhelp.org/posts/HIV---Prevention/Vaginal-fluid-on-hand-touched-inside-of-condom-and-head-of-penis/show/1119533 - read this thread thoroughly. There is an excellent explanation about why certain activities are not risks, and why others are.

Thank you! i booked an appointment with a therapist. but i'm so worried about HIV as they penetrated my anus with their finger. i'm scared there is a risk if there was a cut or open wound.

The only risks for HIV in adults are:
1) Having unprotected anal or vaginal sex, or
2) sharing intravenous needles with IV drug users.

You cannot get HIV from anyone's hands or fingers - not your hands/fingers, not anyone else's hands/fingers, even if those hands/fingers have cuts or scrapes on them.

If in doubt, re-read items 1 and 2 listed above.

You had ZERO RISK for HIV.  There is no information you could add to this event that would make it a risk for HIV. You don't need to test for anything.

Read those links I gave you.

When I say "no risk for anything", I mean anything, including HIV. If you had a risk, I promise you I'd tell you.

thank you so much! i will work on my mental health, i'll get tested just for piece of mind but this made it clear i am a hypochondriac as i am still scared even though the information you provided is factual and accurate.

thanks. i was worried about the anal penetration as a HIV RISK. i'll review those links again and seek out a mental health provider. i'd like to thank both of you for your time and answers.
