I drug tested positive for something I’ve never used?

I was administered a saliva drug test and the doctor told me my results which had a small trace of cocaine in my system. I don’t use cocaine so how did it get in my system? For context I work in a bar could it have been something I touched? How do I take precautions to avoid this happening?

It's probably a false positive some chemical similar enough to cocaine to trigger it. That is not a good test. I use urine or serum and then can even send out for further chemical testing if positive for a confirmation test.
