Finger cut in tip and fingering
Hello. I am from Spain and I am really worried because 2 weeks ago I fingered a Sex Masseuse for a couple of minutes. I would´t be worried except that when I arrived home, 2 hours later, I found I had a 5 mm cut (a bit wider than a paper cut that started form the nail) because it hurt a little bit when I touched my pillow (it was like a paper cut , but a bit wider). When I saw it I got really scared. I thought HIV could have been transmitted into my bloodstream.
When I saw it, the cut was not bleeding. I don´t remember when I had it, if it was the day before or 3 hours before the fingering. It was deep enough to see like the red layer of the skin. I poured some medical alcohol 96 degrees to try to proof if it was free enough to let the virus in. When I poured it it didn´t hurt / sting. It thought to me it was already healing, but I am not sure. 2 days later scab began to form (at the moment of exposure it wasn´t yet formed). Now, 2 weeks later it´s completely regenerated (you can´t notice I had a cut). Have I had a risky exposure to HIV? Do you think I should get tested?
4 days after exposure I began with a mild sore throat and afterwards I had some coughing for 3, 4 days. I have been very stressed since the incident and a bit anxious. On day 13 I started with some nausea that remains until today. Not vomiting, bus a bit nausea that comes and goes during the days. ¿Could it be the onset of HIV symptoms? I am very stressed and anxious. I don´t know how much I can stand living in this situation.
Thank you very much for your help.

Hello again. I am very worried now because on day 13 after possible risk I began with nausea that still remains today (day 17). 4 days with nausea!!!Could nausea alone be an ARS hiv symptom? Thanks in advance for your answer but I am feeling a bit nervous .
