How likely would I get Herpes from receiving unprotected oral sex

Hi, it's been sleepless nights for me worrying if I am infected with herpes.
One month ago, I met a total stranger whom I knew from the internet. That was the first time I received a blow job. I did not know if she had any cold sore when performing the oral sex and IF there was any, how likely would I be infected with herpes? This really freaks me out! I really hope you people could help out! thanks!

I'd err on the side of caution and get urine testing for chlamydia and gonorrhea just to cover the 2 most common bases.

thank you so much! I feel relieved now. I did not do urine test as the sensation lasted only 2-3 days. Is that an indication of any STD?


I've learnt lesson now. Thank you.

you would've had obvious symptoms of genital herpes by now if you had contracted it. I'd stop worrying about herpes at this point.

did you ever get some basic urine testing done when you had your burning sensation?

oral sex is not safe sex. we recommend it is always protected. saves you worrying, saves you testing and protects you!

to add on, i had burning sensation when urinating the day after that encounter. But it quickly recovered within 2-3 days. Is this a symptom for any STD. Please advise. thank you in advance
