Was I at risk?

So in November 2019 I gave a guy a blowjob, he said I caught my teeth on his penis (although I didn’t notice this) and it started bleeding, I had his blood in my mouth and it wasn’t a lot but I don’t know his HIV status. I also think I had a slight wound at the back of my gum at the time but it was small and not bleeding. We stopped but then we had sex instead and I thought this would be okay as we used a condom, but it was bleeding inside the condom. We checked after and it didn’t break but I am concerned that somehow the blood ended up inside me and on the top of the condom when he was putting it on. How long does HIV survive in air? I asked for his HIV status and he said he hadn’t been tested in 10 years but he was confident he didn’t have it and was clean. I got a canker sore 1-2 weeks after for about a week. Is this an ARS symptom? I have been reading and apparently it is. I got no other symptoms apart from a cold 2 months later but I don’t think this is related. I have a home test kit on it’s way. I can’t stop worrying.

Hi , First thing to remember is that HIV is the least infectious of STI's , for example Hep.B is 50-100 times more infectious , so effectively it is unlikely for you to have contracted HIV from the activity you describe . In normal circumstances there should be no bleeding from the penis , so this suggests that it was already damaged in some way . A sore can be a symptom of syphilis . It is much more likely you have caught some other STI if you have caught anything , and that is what you should test for .

How did you home testing kit results go, and was there a syphilis test as part of that ?
