Am I at risk for stds and if so what

Hello, a few nights ago I decided I’d bring my tinder date Over and he spent the night. That night I kissed him multiple times and gave him a unprotected blow job. I feel completely sick to the stomach that I did something like that because this is my first time being so daring and bold I’m so scared of catching anything especially herpes. And I do have a slight concern about hiv I’ve heard a lot that you can’t get hiv from oral sex so that takes down my concern abit about that. However this morning I woke up with something in my mouth that looks like a sore or a ulcer in my mouth it doesn’t hurt or anything and it’s not white it has no color when I swallow my throat isn’t sore. Did this put me at risk and if so for what im so scared. Im a male by the way and I performed it on a male. Im 24 and he was 26

Kissing is only a risk for oral herpes type 1, and that's if you don't have it already. 67% of people under 50 have hsv1 globally (it's about 50% in the US, if that's where you live), so there's a good chance you have it already.  Most people never get symptoms.

From giving oral sex, you could get oral gonorrhea, possibly chlamydia, and syphilis.

A clear sore in your mouth could be anything - a canker sore (not an STI), or maybe you bit your cheek or tongue or wherever it is.  

You can test for gonorrhea and chlamydia at 5 days- and it needs to be an oral swab, and syphilis at 6 weeks. A syphilis sore won't appear for at least 10 days, though it can take up to 90 - the average is 3 weeks. The syphilis sore would appear at the point of infection, and the person would have to have a sore present in order for you to get it.

The chances of you getting oral herpes from giving oral sex are low unless the person had an actual outbreak. Herpes doesn't go from the genitals to the mouth nearly as easily as it does from the mouth to the genitals.

I wouldn't worry. If the sore lingers, see your doctor.
