Brief Answer:
Less likely, I would have suggested not to worry.

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Good to hear from you.

The fact is that acquiring an STD from receipt of masturbation is simply not a realistic concern. The skin of the hand is very resistant to any of these infections because this skin is thicker than on other parts of the body. As a result, the occurrence of any of these STDs on the hands is very, very rare and when lesions are present, they tend to be obvious.It is just not a big enough concern to worry about.

Hope, I have answered your query. Please accept the answer if you have no follow up queries.
Wish you good health.
Note: Hope the answers resolves your concerns, however for further guidance of skin related queries consult our Dermatologist.Click here to book a consultation
