Hello
This comes under the category of transmission of HIV by other contacts :
As you mentioned that sex worker had a sex with another person and she fingered in your anus .
No doubt she took shower but if her finger or under the nail (s) there was contamination ( presence of virus ) chances of getting infection is more .
So it is very difficult to say something about you got infection not .
In my opinion you should wait for 3 weeks and there after get in "RAPID antigen antibody test for HIV 1 & HIV 2 ".
Enzyme immunoassay ( EIA) , Western blot is highly sensitive , specific and most accurate test.
Hope this will help you.
