unlikely by hand job

Hi
Thank you for query. I am Dr Bharatesh D Basti answering your query.
Hand job can transmit herpes infection if there are active lesions in the area of contact. If there are no active lesions in the area the chances are unlikely. If you have not got any lesions so far then you are unlikely to have herpes.
HPV can be transmitted by touch or skin to skin contact if HPV virus present.
It is not clear about the current status of you and your wife regarding these infections.
You can get investigated for herpes and HPV if in doubt
Hand job chances of transmission is very rare.
You can get back for any clarification .
Thank you
