Hi,
Welcome to HCM.
You wore double condoms. You didn't have any real penetration. The wound over the inner aspect of thigh is not at all at risk.
So you need not worry about HIV. Sinusitis and throat infection can occur to anybody without a HIV infection. You can relax. If your mind got disturbed much, it is better for you to have blood check up after 12 weeks of the suspected contact to rule out totally the possibility of HIV.
Wish you a speedy recovery from your cold.
