Oral and hiv

Hi, an escort practiced me oral sex , the escort had mouth pains and, once removed the condom this touched the glans. If there was blood on the condom, am I at risk? Thank you and sorry for my grammar

You had no risk of HIV and are so safe that you don't need to test.
HIV is instantly inactivated in air (and also in saliva) which means it is effectively dead so it can't infect from 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 unprotected penetrating vaginal or anal sex or sharing needles that you inject with but you didn't do that so you had no risk. Oral is not penetrating anal or vaginal activity and has no risk. This sentence is all you need to know to protect yourself against HIV.
Even with blood, lactation, cuts, rashes, burns, etc the air or the saliva does not allow inactivated virus to infect from oral activities. The above HIV science is 40 years old and very well established so nothing you can add will make your situation a risk.
No one got HIV from oral activities in 40 years of HIV history, so likely no one will in the next 40 years of your life either.

Some experts feel that there is NO risk to hiv via oral means, again why they call it a theoretical risk.

The saliva kills the virus

The experts call it a theoretical risk which means on paper there is a chance. However it is so unlikely that it is not to extent to be worried about. You have more chance to be struck by lightening twice.
