Welcome to our forum and thanks for your question. If your only exposure is receipt of masturbation, you are entirely in the clear. this is the case even if your partner used saliva as a lubricant. No problem, no need for concern.
Just to illustrate the point, the CDC, which tends to be overly conservative, states that even mutual masturbation, when partners get each others' genital secretions on each other is safe sex with no need for testing. your exposure was less intense that that.
If you feel the need for testing to reassure yourself, you can be reliably tested for gonorrhea and chlamydia any time more than three days after your exposure. Testing for syphilis should wait at least a month and testing for HIV will be reliable at 6 weeks after the event. As I said above however, there is no medical or scientific reason for testing. I hope that this comment is helpful. EWH

1. No reason to worry.
2. Receipt of unprotected oral sex involves direct exposure to a mucous membrane (the throat of the person performing fellatio) and these infections are transmitted by direct contact with infected surfaces. With oral sex, bacteria are introduced into the urethra of the penis. On the other hand, with masturbation the bacteria are exposed to room temperature and the air which are toxic to them and the bacteria do not get into the penis. No one has ever gotten an STI from receipt of masturbation even with saliva as the lubricant. You are not going to be the first. EWH

No. Once again HSV is transmitted through direct, not indirect contact. No risk for acquisition of herpes either.
