The only risks for HIV in adults are:
1) Having unprotected anal or vaginal sex, or
2) sharing intravenous needles with IV drug users.
You had zero risk and there is no need to test for this event. HIV is never transmitted via a finger, even if it has cuts and scrapes.

Thanks after I removed my finger I did ejaculate myself is this a risk probably as there would have been vaginal fluids on the finger ?
Please re-read the ONLY two risks for HIV, and realize that you did not have either one of those risks.
