Not to worry

Hi, thanks for using Healthcaremagic.

I went through your query and understood your concerns.

Chances of transmission through oral sex very negligible , if there were any cuts or broken mucosa, then chances are there.
You wait for your results , not to worry as chances are very rare.

Hope I answered your query. Feel free to ask further related query.

Wish you a good health.

I often bit my tounge and inner cheeks and I do t know if there is cuts but about sores I'm sure I dot have what I remember is my mouth was not hurting me but there is a concern I don't remember if I had a temporary crowns on my two teeth and that's what's worries me the most
And I often bite my lips but all I remember is no ejaculation in my mouth and I don't know if the person is infected or not and also I did a herpes test and it's negative

Brief Answer:
Chances of Infection can't be ruled out

Detailed Answer:
Hi, thanks for follow up query.

Break in mucosa could be from ulcer or any cut in mucosa, chances of virus entry into blood is possible.
Though no ejaculation inside mouth, Precum do contains virus.

HIV infection may or may not be infected with herpes.

Hope I answered your query.

Wish you a good health.

Just one more question since I have a herpes and hiv negative blood result what my chances to get other std? Since the incedent took place six month ago.

Answered by Dr. Vidya KR (13 hours later)

Brief Answer:
No risk of other infection

Detailed Answer:
Hi, thanks for follow up query.

If you had no symptoms after exposure, then no risk for other STDs. Usually STDs manifest immediately with few days of infection. So if you are not symptomatic, then no chances of infection in your previous exposure.
