Massage parlor HSV scare

Transmission Question

I had an encounter with a woman who told me she has HSV-2. There was NO vaginal sex, NO genital-to-genital contact, and NO unprotected oral. She briefly gave oral with a condom on before I stopped it and switched to a handjob. Later she was laying on a massage table with her legs up while giving me a handjob and my thighs/front upper leg area were pressed against her inner thigh/possibly nearby genital area for several minutes. My genitals themselves never touched her genitals or thighs.

I know HSV-2 can theoretically spread through skin contact and asymptomatic shedding, including the “boxer short area.” My question is realistically how risky does this sound for HSV-2 transmission specifically to the thigh area? I’m looking for honest medical/practical opinions, not just “anything is possible.”
