Do I need testing??

[GT222]

Hi guys, thank you for this excellent forum!

I had a sexual experience with a sex work in South Africa. I believe it is a country witb seriously high HIV rates.

The women performed condom protected oral sex on me. Amd a handjob, I also touched her vagina on the outside for mayne 3 seconds. The condom was really tight on the base of my penis, but a bit long on the top part. I am completely sure it did not come off. I pulled it off and it seemed intact. But I stupidly did not inspect it. She performed oral on me for about 15min. I am not 100% sure the condom was intact through the whole episode, but everytime I looked at my penis I did not see any holes. It was a latex condom.

She also kissed my chest. Thats ALL. Nothing else happened. Her nails were pretty long, so I am scared that maybe she created a tiny whole somewhere on the condom during the hand and blow job...
Is this a possibility?

My question now is, am I at ANY risk for HIV or anything else??

Thanks in advance

Risks for HIV are:
1) having unprotected, penetrative anal or vaginal sex, or
2) sharing intravenous needles.

Nothing else that you can think of, including the event you described, is a risk for HIV.  There is no "what if" that you can add to this scenario that would make it a risk for HIV.

Thank you very much, all the information on the internet regarding HIV made me really stressed! So the virus in salivia is dead? Without a doubt? That's why it cannot be transmitted via oral sex?

But what if she had blood in her mouth? I would obviously not know, can I become infected this way? Last question, my penis head was red because of the friction of the condom, would this "wound" be a viable transmiss route for salivia containing blood?? Because I really think my uretra was covered by the condom...

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.
If you didn't have one of the 3 then you are just worrying about your own hiv theory - which is unrealistic for you to think that can become reality - so you should move on back to your happy life instead.

Thank you very much, in other words I really do not require testing?

Two of our members have accurately advised you that you didn't have a risk for HIV.  Thus, there is no reason to take a test.
