could you provide some advice?
Greetings. Could someone give me some advice? Awhile back I had condom protected vaginal and oral sex with a commercial sex worker in Hong Kong/China. I do not recall clearly. I’m paranoid that during removal of the condom the same tissue that was used to remove it was then used to wipe the head of my penis, contacting the vaginal fluids with my urethra. I was told that this was no risk by my sex health counselor and Dr. HHH. However, I had sticky mucus type sinusitis/post nasal drip about a week afterwards, which lasted for a week. Two months later I had a cold and sore throat for 2-3 days. Following the cold I had a stuffy nose which had to be cleared constantly. Eventually it developed into a post nasal drip. The post nasal drip has persisted (over 1.5 months!) and the mucus or phlegm drips down my throat. My doctor said these are not symptoms of early HIV. Do you agree? I also discovered two swollen lymph nodes, which my doctor said were normal swollen nodes. I tried to get tested but he advised against it. The length of the PND has kept me worried because I read somewhere that PND is a symptom of HIV or AIDS patients. Secondly, I recently had protected vaginal and unprotected oral with a Toronto escort. She told me she does ecstasy, but I don't know if she does needles. After foreplay, her vagina was wet, even on the outside. When putting on the condom, I accidentally momentarily touched the head of my penis near the surface of the vagina, wet with vaginal fluids for around one second. I realized and quickly moved my penis and slipped on the condom.
1) What are your thoughts about my PND problem and first situation and the second situation?
2) What is the risk of herpes from my second situation?
3) I plan to get tested for HIV next week, but given the new encounter, should I just wait for another month and get tested for both situations? Should I get a full STD screening?

Even if the head of me penis contacted the outside surface of the vagina for a second with vaginal fluids there?
Protected sex is considered to be safesex. Please follow your doc. If you are freaking out get tested after 6-8 weeks.
