HELP, Possible risks, I am very worried

Hi, I'm very worried.

19 days ago I performed oral sex on a man for several minutes, my concern is because I had a big wound near my tooth, is there a risk of getting HIV?

And the second question, which also has me very worried. The man rubbed his finger on my anus, and he had a wound. If I had blood on your finger and touched my anus, is there a risk?

As our members have clearly stated, you never had a risk.  Tests you take are negative because of this and any future unnecessary tests you elect to take after will remain negative.  We wish you well and are closing this discussion.

Neither of you had a risk for HIV from his finger "falling" on your anus...……..even if there was some blood.

Thank you. In the same way because of so much anxiety I did the quick test after 29 days, it came out NOT REACTIVE. A test at 29 days, almost 30 is enough?  

And excuse so many questions, is that I had been very anxious, nervous

My question is this, I have something worried.

The man put his finger on my anus, and he had a wound on his finger, if he had blood on the finger of a wound, that the blood of the finger has fallen on my anus, could he get HIV?

You had no risk and a test would be a waste of 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.

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.

Thank you.

Today, when I was 30 days old, I took the test and it came out not reactive.

I'm calm now

God bless you.
