Question : Hello Doctor, i visited a sex worker. Did nothing with the condom on she gave me a hadjob. i didnt kissed her neither touch her body? is there a chance of getting any infection like HIV or STD
Brief Answer:
Unlikely.
Detailed Answer:
Dear Friend.
Welcome To HCM. I am Dr Anshul Varshney.
I understand your concern.
By just giving hand job it is highly unlikely that you can get HIV or STD's. Only remote possibility is if she is suffering from HIV infection and has a cut in her hand and you too have a cut or abrasion in your hand then only you might get it.
I would suggest you to stop worrying and promising yourself that you will never ever anyhow in any state would repeat such mistake.
Stay Healthy.

Thank you doctor, i know what i did was wrong. I didn't have a cut near my pvt parts neither her hands. One more question, i used a local brand condom while she was giving me the hand job, but after an hour i notice little redish 3 small dots..on my penis..will it that be an infection of the condom?
Brief Answer:
Detail Follows.
Detailed Answer:
Dear Friend.
If you were wearing the condom during the hand job then chances of getting any infection are nil.
Probably the reddish dots you have developed are a result of Irritant Contact Dermatitis from condom.
Wait for 5 days. If they increase write to me.

2.) Reddish dots are not anything major
3.) I have a family to support, i did a blundered, hope i would ever get any disease like STD or aids by this act.
4.) what can i do for my mental rest, i am at guilt right now

Dear Friend.
Following are your answers:
1. Yes it is safe if no body touch was there even through hands and there was no Tear in the condom.
2. They seems to be mild based on your description. Attach a photograph for a better diagnosis.
3. By the act you described there are least chances of getting any STD. However no one can guarantee you!
4. Just forget whatever happened. You are a human being thats why you do mistakes. You just need to learn and commit yourself not to repeat them.
If you have any further query please ask me else close the discussion and rate it.
