I'm really worried about a situation that happened about a week ago. I had an encounter with a commercial sex worker where I was grinding, rubbing, and poking her nude vagina for around two minutes. I had my underwear on, and there was a release of precum, while she was completely naked. She mentioned that she experienced a leakage of fluids. I'm concerned about the possibility of her fluids getting through my underwear and reaching my urethra. Is there a risk of HIV or any STDs being transmitted through this kind of contact, even with my underwear on? Should I consider getting tested, or am I overthinking? I've read some things online saying it might be nothing, but I would really appreciate your advice.

You do not need to worry about HIV transmission in this scenario, as the virus does not pass through intact fabric like underwear. Naked frottage (grinding without penetration) carries an extremely low to negligible risk for HIV. However, if you're anxious, you can do an HIV test (4th generation) after 4 weeks for peace of mind and rule out other STDs with a routine panel. Rest assured, your described exposure is highly unlikely to result in any infection.

View allI had a massage yesterday that involved body-to-body contact, but no kissing or penetration. I did insert my finger in her vagina a couple of times, but my fingers had no wounds. She gave me a handjob afterwards. Now I'm super anxious about whether my penis might have accidentally touched her vagina, even though I didn't notice any fluids. To ease my worries, I got her tested today for HIV, hepatitis B and C, and syphilis using the HIV RNA PCR, p24 AgAb CMA method, and everything came back negative. She also said she's never had penetrative sex. Can I be sure I'm safe? I'm really stressing out and I don't think I'll go to a massage parlor again. Would appreciate any advice.
Based on the tests conducted, which returned negative results for HIV, hepatitis B and C, and syphilis, and considering the massage therapist's confession of being clean and not having penetrative sex, the risk of transmission appears low; however, to completely alleviate concerns, consider consulting a healthcare professional for personalized advice and possibly undergoing additional testing after the recommended window period for maximum reassurance.

I'm feeling quite anxious about something that happened over three weeks ago. I got bitten on the hand by a bat, and when I saw a general physician, they suggested just a tetanus shot. They mentioned that rabies vaccines aren't necessary for bat bites here in India. But I'm getting worried now. Is that really the case? Should I be doing anything else to protect myself from rabies?
its better to take rabies vaccine as a precautionary measure
