Possible: Excellent local hygiene and washing hand before relationship would prevent this however.

Rare: It is possible to get a UTI (urinary tract infection) from sex, including fingering. If you got a UTI from that and it was untreated, it could develop into a kidney infection, or pyelonephritis. This would be rare, but it is possible.
