Can STD Contract With Small Cut On The Arm?

yes please! Okay this may sound very stupid and ridiculous, but I just need reassurance please... I was layin in bed with a man and I was massaged his penis a few times.. and there was pre-ejacualtion, and there were rumors that he had std's , so I confronted him about it and he said he did not and gets tested about every 4 months anyway... so I was wondering after it got on my hand I wiped it off on the sheet, and stopped.. I dont remember having any cuts, or anything on my hand... could someone get an std through a papercut? or does it have to be a deep cut?? and should I be worried? and should i be tested? sounds so silly,, i knoe

thank you for query.the modes suggested by you are usuall rare until there is abrasions or open wounds.some infections may be transmitted by this route.as there are no abrasions you need not worry about acquiring STDs.It is better to have protected intercourse like using condoms if either of them have multiple partners.
