Can HIV Be Contracted From Semen In The Fingers?
Hi there, I recently has a very brief sexual encounter with a man where is briefly held by testicles in my hand after he had been masturbating himself. I have shaved 'down below' 28 hours earlier and though I don't believe there were any cuts I am worried sick I may have contracted HIV from some precum on his fingers. Is this likely?
