A masseuse spit on my penis. Will I get STD?
Patient's Query
Hi doctor.
I am freaking out, and I am not sure if I should be. I got a massage. I thought it was legit, but it ended with manual stimulation. At one point, the masseuse spit on my penis during the stimulation, and now I am terrified I will get an STD, specifically herpes or HPV.
Am I overthinking it, or do I have a serious risk?
Kindly help me.
Thank you.

Hi doctor,
Thank you.
There was hand massage with oil and then spit on the penis. That is it.
Kindly give your opinion.
Thank you.
Hello,

You would not have acquired an infection or sexually transmitted microbes through saliva coming in contact with the penis unless there were no ulcerations on the skin of the penis. Avoid such activities in the future.
I hope this was helpful.
Thank you.

Hi doctor,
Thank you.
What does unless there is no ulceration on the skin of the penis mean?
Kindly explain.
Thank you.
Hi,
Welcome back to icliniq.com.
Very rarely, the one who spits on your penis may have bleeding gums. If they suffer from any viral infections like HIV (human immunodeficiency virus), hepatitis-B, hepatitis-C, can shed the virus in saliva in very low concentration. When such saliva comes in contact with skin with an ulcer (a wound over your penis), there are a very low risk of a pathogen entering through the wound.
On seeing your history, there are no chances of infection transmission in your case. Do not worry. Please avoid this kind of circumstances in the future. I hope this was helpful.
Please let me know if you have any more questions on your mind.
I would be happy to guide you.
Thank you.

Hi doctor,
Thank you,
No open wounds on my penis at all.
And it could not enter from the urethra and affect me that way?
I feel most worried about HPV and herpes because I have heard that they can transfer from the mouth to genitals.
Kindly give your opinion.
Thank you.
Hi,
Welcome back to icliniq.com.
It will not enter through the urethra and affect you. So need not worry. Do not worry about HPV (Human papillomavirus) and herpes.
Please get back if you have further doubts.
I would be happy to guide you.
Thank you.
