HIV symptom and negative tests

Hello,
2 months a go i had sexual contact with a sex worker in Malaysia. No intercourse or penetration, she was wearing shorts the whole time. There was some kind of lubricant on her body and when i sucked her nipples something went in my mouth maybe milk maybe lube is that a risk? I also received a hand job and i put my penis between her breasts.I took and antigen and antibody 4th gen hiv test at 7 week which was negative. I currently have a swollen lymph node under my left jaw. Should i test again? Did i have s high risk?
Thank you

Irrelevant question.  A person cannot have HIV symptoms if they were never exposed to HIV.  NEITHER of you ever had a risk for HIV.
OK, but im currently experiencing a swollen lymph node under my jaw, and just for conformation cmia at 7 weeks conclusive?
Your swollen node is your own diagnosis from reading on the internet. We have already established that you can't acquire HIV from any thing you have described. Please see your doctor for your discomforts. HIV is not your concern. This is the best this forum can offer you.

This answers all of your HIV questions, and if you can think of any more just reread about the 3. You had zero risk therefore  testing is irrelevant to your situation because you had zero risk. HIV is a fragile virus, which 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 3 adult risks are the following:
1. unprotected penetrating vaginal with a penis
2. unprotected penetrating anal sex with a penis
3. sharing needles that you inject with.
The only way to get HIV is if you did one of the 3. The situation you describe 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. Doctors have calculated the risk from what you describe to be less than that of being hit by a meteor, therefore no one will get HIV from what you did in the next 40 years of your life either. The above HIV science is 40 years old and very well established, so no detail that you can add to your encounter will change it from zero risk.
You need to stop poking your jaw and irritating it, then pretending you became a doctor and found a disease. Move on and enjoy life instead of wasting it taking tests for no reason.

Thank you a lot for your help i truly appreciate it. Your doing amazing work. But my jaw actually is in mild pain for a week now? Could it be HIV, i know you said no but isn't it a symptom?
Thank you
It is only a symptom if you have hiv, but I am sure you understand that.
This is an hiv prevention forum, and you don't have any medical training so see a doc or dentist if you need a jaw diagnosis.
Thank you again, sorry last question i know i had no risk but is a cmia 4th gen test at 7 weeks conclusive?
Sorry, and thank you
There are no guidelines for placebo test. See a therapist since you doubt the hiv science that you had no risk, and instead you are only believing your own science fiction.
I honestly mean no disrespect from this question but are you a doctor of experienced with HIV?
We rely on the opinion of expert doctors so my advice is effectively theirs. You, on the other hand only believe your own science fiction.
Apart from HIV, what do i do with my swollen lymph node? its been a week or more
See a doctor to figure if it is really a swollen node and if it indeed is, find the real cause of it. There are a plenty of reason that could cause it, HIV certainly is not the reason.
