Thank you for any input.
You had no HIV risk and a test will be a waste of time. You interact with others who cough on your food and door knobs so sickness and colds (plus neck aches from posture or exercise strain) are to be expected at any time.
HIV is instantly inactivated in air and also in saliva which means it is effectively dead so it can't infect from touching, external rubbing or oral activities. It doesn't matter if you and they were actively bleeding or had cuts at the time either because the HIV is effectively dead. there is no need to put anything in your eye because any virus that landed in the eye is already dead.
Only adult risks are the following:
1. unprotected penetrating vaginal
2. unprotected penetrating anal sex
3. sharing needles that you inject with. Knowing these 3 are all you need to know to protect yourself against HIV. Your situation is a long way from any of these 3.
Even with blood, lactation, cuts, rashes, burns, etc the air or the saliva does not allow inactivated virus to infect from touching, external rubbing or oral activities. The above HIV science is 40 years old and very well established so there is no detail that you can add that will make any of your encounter a risk for HIV. No one in 40 years of HIV history got HIV from the situation you are concerned about so it is unlikely that it will happen in the next 40 of your lifetime either.

Besides, you read this forum per your other post and since the advice can't change, so there is nothing left to say.
Are You sure because the cdc Said it’s still a low risk?
Some docs are overly conservative and use theoretical risks that have never manifested in 40 years of hiv. We use the opinions of expert doctors, and don't pay attention to other sites or this would be a debating forum instead of one providing useful advice to prevent HIV. If you believe the theoretical risk that has never happened is a real risk, then you will have to test to provide an answer to your question.
