Hello doctors

Two days ago, I had a relationship with a girl (who provides sexual services)

The relationship was only protected oral sex

I touched her clitoris (I think for less than a 5 seconds). It was with the tip of one of my index fingers. I don’t remember that her clitoris was wet. I think it was dry.

After two or three minutes (I don't remember well), I held my penis without a condom for three minutes and my finger was dry.

After finishing, I noticed that there was something resembling a sore on the penis, but it was pink in color and very small. It takes a lot of concentration to notice it.

I then washed the penis with soap and water.

I came here not to give in to anxiety,

What worries me

Is it possible for HIV to be transmitted through this practice?

If she is infected, is it possible for the infection to be transmitted if my finger touches that sore?
thank you very much

Now I have read your questions. Guess what?

Some people have the belief -- perhaps because of social circumstances, schooling, religious teaching or other reasons -- that STDs are so infectious that even the most superficial contact is risky. The truth is that the bacteria and viruses that cause STDs evolved to require far more intimate contact than, say, staph, strep, influenza, tuberculosis, and many other infections. There must be exposure to LARGE amounts of the bacteria or virus, and typically those large doses must contact particular kinds of cells deep inside the body. This is why these infections are sexually transmitted to begin with, and why nonsexual contact with other persons almost never has any chance of passing the infection.

The contacts you describe with your "sexual services" partner (a female commercial sex worker or CSW) were completely free of risk for any and all STDs. I suppose the "something" on your penis was simply the result of superficial physical contact; no STD can show up within minutes of catching it. Regardless of whether your finger had vaginal fluids on it, you could not possibly transfer enough of it by touching your penis to transmit an infection.

So all is well, no risk at all. Assuming this is your only potential sexual exposure, you do not need testing for anything and if you have a regular partner, you can safely continue your normal sexual relationship with that person without risk of transmitting any infection.

I hope these comments are helpful. Let me know if anything isn't clear.
