Is HIV Transmission Possible Through Oral Sex?

I recently met with a man and gave him oral sex he came over the bed sheet and his hands and then shortly after put his fingers inside my bum. Before meeting with him I remembered there was some blood when I was cleaning my bum and there was a little bit of blood when cleaning after the meet up. I was very worried and 4 days after meeting I started experiencing night sweats along my chest and stomach which have lasted five days. Along with this I had a pain in my gum again after 4 days which on the 8th day I saw was a sore. Looking up both these symptoms I saw these can be a sign of early HIV so again I m worrying a lot. I ve asked the man several times his status and he says he s negative but I cant trust people over the Internet. If you could let me know the chances of this being hiv please as I said I m really starting to worry myself. Thanks

Hello and thanks for your question.
It's my first priority to help you.
Well chances of HIV transmission from such incident are 1 in 10000.
And if there was active fresh bleeding at that time then I would recommend to go for testing after 4 weeks and 12 weeks for a precautionary measure.
Still such symptoms are not conclusive for HIV.
Hope this helps.
I find this answer helpful
