Confused and need your help

Hi All,

I have a doubt about HIV transmission. I recently when to a massage palor and took a massage. The therapist was wearing her clothes. She offered me a handjob and i accepted. I made her to wear a gloves and completed the handwork. Before doing the body massage i made her to clean her hands using sanitizer. I am worried about one thing. I had a mosquito bite in my leg and noticed that a samll in her finger. I asked she told it occurred when she was cooking (hot oil might has toouched her finger and got hurt). Do i need a testing after this incident . Worried if her finger touched my leg where mosquito bite wound is there. I believe she was not bleeding.

No Oral, No Vaginal and No Anal intercourse occured. Am i at any risk? Do i need testing?

Please help me so that I can forget this and continue to work.

People already gave you the risks of how people get HIV.  They are, again, unprotected vaginal or anal sex with penetration or sharing IV drug needles. That's it.  No, oral sex is not a risk nor any other scenarios that your anxiety produces.  
Thank you. You guys say only hiv transmits via three mode only which you have mentioned. Some says cuts can transmit whether is correct or wrong? My situation as mentioned above massage touched my field where I had a small mosquito bite wound tip opened. If she had slight bleeding finger touch my leg whether transmission accurs?? As I said earlier no sex intercourse. Whether I need to test? Am I at risk? I have a family I don't want to pass it to my wife ( if any thing)
You have already been answered.  No matter how many times you continue to ask the question, it will not change. You can not get HIV from a massage in which a woman touched your mosquito bite.  The ways you get hiv were outlined.  That's all anyone can say to you.  Non risks are non risks. And you had NO RISK.

Thank you so much. My mind is free now. Just to educate myself. Hiv virus will not survive (immediately) when it is exposed in air right. To transmit it needs a deep penetration which occurs only via anal or vaginal sex. correct?

It has to be unprotected penetration exactly as Chima said. Hiv prevention is straightforward.
Thank you so much Chima7 and AnxiousNoMore for clearing my doubts i will move forward and will not testing as HIV will not survive outside the host. I did not indulge in any unprotected oral or vaginal or anal sex.

Thank you

You can forget this and move on with your life because you had no risk. In an adult, only unprotected anal or vaginal sex and sharing IV drug needles with infected users carries a risk for transmission of HIV.
