After touching a metal thing in a public restroom, my son accidently put his fingers in my mouth. i am concerned that i could get hiv.

NO: HIV is not transmitted by casual contact like that. There is no chance he contracted HIV from hand/mouth contact. Relax and go to CDC website or other HIV site to learn about HIV transmission.
