There are no reports of transmission if HIV or hepatitis B or C in contaminated massage oil, even if you have open sores or cuts in the area that is being massaged. I would not worry and see no reason for testing. EWH---

Hi doctor

Thank you

I meant the can of massage oil . Assuming if the masseuse did the hand job with some customers , and then she holds the can of massage oil with some secretions on her hand.

This is my concern

Do you understand what I meant ?

Thank you

Divide up to three responses to each clients question this is your final response. As I indicated earlier, you have nothing to worry about or not at risk for HIV, hepatitis, or either STI. You mentioned STI I’m not transmitted from person to person through on a person’s hands.

This thread will now be closed. There should be no need for further questions. EWH.
