Here’s the relevant safety guides from Stanford and MIT.
In short, if you do a lot of soldering, there are long-term occupational hazards from both lead oxides and rosin. Both guides agree that the main hazards are the fumes (workstation should have a fume extractor or suitable filter) and residue on your hands (wash hands with soap and water before eating).
I couldn’t find any numbers on how much material is removed by washing, but every reference emphasized that soap and water are vitally important.
Well yes, for someone with OCD there are a plethora of behaviors that aren’t the same for them as for ordinary people. I think that would go without saying.

Nearly every activity should be preceded by and followed by a good handwashing. Keeps you well.

Lots of conjecture and misunderstanding in the other comments. Thanks for posting actual sources.
