Welcome to the Forum.  I'll do my best to comment.   I think you may have some misperceptions about how and how easily STIs are transmitted.  Many of the common STIs (gonorrhea, chlamydia, trichomonas and even HIV) are transmitted only through penetrative sex, i.e. vaginal oral, or rectal penetration.  Others such as herpes, syphilis, HPV are acquired through direct contact with a source of infection, most often a lesion.  With either mode of transmission, most exposures to infected partners do not lead to transmission of infection.  

The situations you describe are virtually no risk events.  Masturbation of ("fingering") an infected partner, receipt of masturbation (the hand job), nd licking a partner's breasts or other body parts are essentially no risk events.  Further, most persons, even most persons thought to be "risky", do not have STIs.  there is no need for concern and no need for testing related to the encounter you describe.  

I hope this comment is helpful.  EWH

Thanks for your reply.So In the event described do you think kissing or touching lesion/vaginal fluid  present on her boobs or body doesn’t pose any risk for herpes, syphilis or HPV that easily?. Also can you  please comment on the red pimple like bump which formed near my anus after this incident.

Correct.  As I said before, this was a no risk event.


i am not able to examine you however most such "pimples" or "bumps" are folliculitis, unrelated to sexual activity.  I would not worry about it but if you are, rather the guess, you should have a trained health care provider take a look.  EWH

Thank you, risk would be still low here even if the lady has Herpes,Syphilis or HPV right?

I’m little relaxed with your replies, thanks very much.

Yes, even if the lady had herpes or syphilis, your risk is extraordinarily low and not something to worry about.

As you know, we provide up to three responses to each client's questions.  This is my 3rd response.  Thus this thread will now be closed without further responses.  Take care.  EWH
