What is the STD risk for genitals that briefly touch?

Hi All,

I am 29, male, straight, and recently came in for an erotic massage.  I would like to know based on the below details if I would be as risk for any STDs/STIs.  I know I'm not at risk for HIV in this case, but I am more worried about herpes, HPV (warts) and syphilis, as well if it's even worth testing for.

She rubbed her breasts all over me while occasionally using her hands on my penis.  I also rubbed her butt/vagina with my fingers, no insertion.

While on my back, she was on top of me.  My penis wasn't rubbing against her vagina/butt, but the tip of my penis did briefly touch her vagina/clit (not even 1 second) while she was using her hands on my penis.  Her vagina was touching my stomach in the process as well (below belly button, well above my penis).

I was also licking her nipples, not too hard, no sucking.  She also did not appear to be lactating.  No visible sores around her nipples either.

Please advise.  I'm probably overreacting.  To her credit, the woman I saw was really good about cleanup: lots of sanitizer, hot towels, etc.  On top of the above actions described, is there also a risk of getting any of the afformentioned STDs from a massage bed?  Many thanks!

"Please advise.  I'm probably overreacting."

Yep, you are. :)   A touch of a second isn't enough to transmit an STD, and there is no risk from touching body parts with your hands or mouth, or even breasts. To transmit STDs, there needs to be mouth to genital, genital to genital, or anal to genital contact, and either penetration or friction.

There is also no risk from things like tables. STDs die pretty quickly once exposed to air.
