HIV risk from performing oral

I met a guy recently, which the status is unknown and I performed oral to him. I also did deep throat, and I noticed he had pre-xxx. Would that increase the risk of getting hiv? Also I had a sore tongue (due to canker sore/ ulcer) and a sore throat or infection when I did the oral. Would that increase the risk too? Please kindly advise.

He didn't ejalulate in my mouth but outside the body. I am worried that if there is a possibility that the semen dropped to the anus or the lining that may make the transmission possible. Please kindly advise.

I am so worried about the above scenarios.

Thanks. But how about in the scenario that he suddenly "pushed" his gential inside my mouth, which may touched the lining of the throat (with sore throat or infection).  I didn't wash my mouth with water or swallowed (my mouth water) after exposure until I went home 35 to 45 mins later. Would that make a difference?

Also, I read some information that one should not brush his teeth immediately after the exposure. So I waited. But then, when I was lying on the bed later, I was so tired and got asleep and didn't brush my teeth until the next morning. Would that make a difference as well? Thanks a lot for your advice

You are just rephrasing your original question, likely because you are spending so much time Googling HIV - you can read anything on the internet and some articles use theoretical risks that have never manifested in the 40 years of HIV history.  
Since you don't have any medical training.t is unrealistic for you to think that you can become a novice HIV diagnostic expert after doing some Googling.

. The only thing in your mouth is air and saliva so it doesn't matter what detail you add, the result is the same. Zero risk=zero disease=zero reason to test.
Thank you very much for your advice.

Saliva contains at least 12 chemical compounds that would neutralize the virus before it's able to infect. Air has the same effect.

The only ways HIV is spread are:
-Unprotected vaginal/anal penetrations.
-Sharing needles to inject drugs.
-Mother to child.

All the best.

I would appreciate it very much if you would comment on the follow up question that I posted just now as regard to the scenario about deep throating and the other issue that I indicated. Thank you.
