Ne I risk of transmission.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

The hepatitis C can't be transmitted through urine to non intact skin.
It needs blood to blood contact to be transmitted and less through sexual intercourse.
I think you don't need to worry about urine to skin contact.

Hope I have answered the question.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
Thanks.
