Can hpv transfer from parent to child?
Help Please! Very paranoid mama. I do not know if I am infected with hpv but I was french kissed by my ex boss(dont know if he is infected). My kids are always eating from whatever I am eating or drinking. There has been a few times I shared food from my mouth to them that needed to be broken down example nut. Is it possible to transmit hpv from pre chewed food to kids? Please help. I'm really worried about this as I am constantly worrying about their health
No this isn't possible. Spreading the virus via saliva is remotely possible but only if you believe you have oral HPV due to sores in your mouth. If not, then it isn't possible. Deep kissing can spread it but its very very rare.
