Handjob worry....again
Hello Doctors,
Yesterday I went to a massage parole with the intention of getting a safe handjob. The masseuse was fully clothed the entire time and there was no oral/anal/vaginal intercourse of any kind. Before the massage I made the masseuse wipe her bottle of oil with alcohol out of fear that sperm from a previous customer might have contaminated the bottle and put me at risk. There was no sink in the massage room. I asked the masseuse to use alcohol to wash her hands but she said there was alcohol all over her hands from cleaning the bottle. In that moment I seemed satisfied but my OCD got the best of me and started to worry that there wasn't a lot of alcohol at all because she just used alcohol on a tissue to clean her bottle. What if she had sperm from the previous client (who literally left 5 minutes before my massage) on some creases of her hand or under her nails? What if the previous customer had herpes and she had some virus on her hands that wasn't washed off? I'm not worried about HIV, nor about hpv as I'm vaccinated, but I'm really scared now of syphilis/gono/chlam/hsv. Is this something to be concerned about? Should I be driving myself nuts looking for symptoms or is this an OCD thing? The handjob was at the end of the massage (45 min after the start). Immediately after the handjob she used purell so likely she did this to the previous client. But, if she didn't and had dirty hands with sperm and hsv virus from previous customer am I at risk for any std? I just want to hear that this was a non risk event...

Yes and yes.
So bottom line is
1)I should not worry about this because its not a risk even if her hands contained sperm or virus?
2) leave you alone for a year?

You continue to ask variations on the same question. The answers will never change. No matter what differences there may have been in the details of this event compared to the ones you asked about last spring, the fact remans that STDs are not transmitted by hand-genital contact, as you were informed repeatedly in 3 different threads.
That's all I'm going to say; there will be no continuing follow-up comments or discussion. Also, MedHelp permits a maximum of 2 questions every 6 months on the professionally moderated forums (see Terms and Conditions), in order to prevent domination of forums by anxiety-driven questions exactly like yours. This being your 4th question in 6 months, it will have to be your last one for a year. Any new question on this fourm.before this time next year will be deleted without reply, and wihtout refund of the posting fee.
