I went for a routine STD checkup today. I was asked to give my oral swab , anal swab , urine sample and blood sample. For the first three ones I was in the bathroom. The thing is I forgot to disinfect my hands after touching the bathroom door knob after closing and locking it. When I proceeded to take my oral swab with a long stick, my fingers somewhat touched the inside of my mouth. Not too inside but somewhat. After that I also touched my penis with the same hands while giving the urine sample. Am I at risk of contracting stds because of the fact that I forgot to disinfect my hand after closing the bathroom door before taking the swabs?

Do not worry. You have touched your own body, if infection is in side your body, then it's already inside. Hospital bathrooms are generally sanitized regularly. if you are still want to confirm bout the infection then you can visit urologist for physical consultation
