I had a massage for 30 minutes, nothing untoward, this was physio therapy. the therapist may have had scabies all though i don't remember seeing anything upon her hands. would i be at risk? this took place 3 weeks ago?

If you don’t have any symptoms, then you do not have scabies at this time. Scabies is very itchy and it leaves a rash, especially on the hands between the fingers. If you don’t have any symptoms like that, then you do not have scabies. Good luck to you!
