You're not at risk and nobody has ever been reported or even suspected to have caught HIV or other STIs from fingering, with or without cuts on fingers. If you remain worried, you may wish to get tested for reassurance -- but from a medical or risk perspective there is no need, and it is safe to continue unprotected sex with your husband.
