[Question #5338] Need Advice on STD's & HIV and mostly Peace of Mind

Hello Doctor’s,
I am a male in my late twenties in a long term committed relationship
with a woman (we have unprotected sex). This weekend I did something I had
never did before (and will never do again), I visited a Peepshow with booths. I
was watching a video masturbating and I thought I was by myself when I felt
something touch my bare leg. I looked down to find there was a hole in the wall
with a dude’s arm touching me leg. He persisted and touched my leg once again for
which I left the booth. On my way out I saw him and he told me he likes to
perform oral sex on random guys. I told him no thank you and left. I used hand
cleaner when I returned to my car and took a shower a couple hours later. Then
I started to look on the net if this event could be risky. I looked up what the
CDC said about “How is HIV passed from one person to another” and touching did
not make the list (thank God). Then I looked at “how well does it survive outside
the body” and It is not spread by “other sexual that don’t involve exchange of
body fluids (touching)”Even after all of that I am still nervous over some dude
touching my bare leg with his hands, I have no idea if he had blood, cum,
precum on his hands or if he had an STD (HIV, HSV, Syphilis etc. )I have no
open cuts or sores on my leg which I believe would help.
Am I at risk for STD’s (all of them)?
Do I need to get tested?
