Unusual skin to skin contact and STD risk

[swissjens]

Hi,

From reading many posts i already know that mutual masturbation (handjob, fingering) are considered safe and risk free.

My question is if the other person used her elbow and knuckles to rub the anus (putting elbow and knuckles between butt cheeks and rubbing the anus). Is this considered zero risk like mutual masturbation, or is there ANY risk for std's, especially the skin to skin std's (HSV and HPV). I read that hand skin is "rough" and std's can't really stay on it, the skin on elbow and knuckles are not the same.

Also wanted to ask if it is possible to get any std the following way - if a massage therapist touched my skin (like 10-20 seconds) right after she finished massaging a guy in the other room?

And, can one get any std from using towels at a massage parlor (clean place) or from the massage bed sheets?

Please help with a detailed answer. If you know of any similar posts answered by the doctors please include the links.

Thank you all for your help

no risk at all.

Vence, would you say the elbow/knuckles rubbing the anus is a zero risk or low risk but still a risk for the skin to skin ones (hpv, hsv)

thank you

Yes it is

Thanks Grace for replying to my post.

The reason i was asking the touching was because she walked out of the massage room straight to my room to tell me she will be done in five minutes. So she did not wash her hands and lightly touched my arm and bum. Is this still safe and risk free?

Thanks

they always wash their hands before moving onto the next client so it's not a risk. same as if you are using other body parts, they wash them too.

no, you won't get a std from the towels or sheets.

no, elbows aren't a bigger risk for std's either. they are easily killed with soap and water.

please feel free to pay to post to the std experts with your questions also.
