Can HIV Survive In That Oil Medium?
Question: Dear sir, 3 days back I visited a massage parlour in which I did the mistake of receiving a manual stimulation from the masseuse. She brought a bowl of oil and started pouring it using her fingers from the top of my penis and it passed through my urethral opening. Other than this, no other form of sex was done..
Sir, my question is if this oil was previously used on an HIV infected client and since she contaminated the bowl everytime by dipping her fingers into it, what if his precum contaminated it and when she let it flow on my urethral opening, could it infect me?
Sir, can HIV survive in that oil medium if it was protected in the previous clients' precum?!
I don't know exactly when the bowl was used on the previous client, for all I can vouch is atleast for a period of 15 mins the bowl was inside my cabin in front of my eyes sir..

Thank you sir, will the virus become inactive even if enclosed inside precum drops transferred inside the oil bowl?!
Is there any need for me to take a test since the oil was poured from the top using her hands coming in contact with my urethral opening sir?!

Brief Answer:

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Welcome back.
Precum will not have infectious dose of HIV virus as that of semen as such. It is like saliva, urine, tears and sweat which are not infectious for HIV disease. You are not a HIV positive individual. So there is no question HIV mixing with precum.
Precum does not containing WBCs or CD4 cells. HIV are viable only inside these cells of any body fluids.
In the absence of WBCs in precum, that too outside the body, it cannot be contaminated with HIV of another individual's body fluid.
The same procedure is carried out to all their clients in almost all the massage parlors across the country.
So you need not worry and you don't need any test for HIV.

Brief Answer:
No STI can be transmitted through massage oil, even if it is contaminated
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Welcome back.
Syphilis also cannot be transmitted through massage oil contaminated with other's body secretions.
Almost all the organisms causing STI are highly fragile, can't survive in the outside atmosphere, so only prefers to be sexually transmitted. They can survive either in body fluids or in an environment with moist warm climate with a partial anaerobic conditions which are prevailing in the human genitals.
