HPV and Anal Rimming

Hi,

Recently I've been diagnosed with a condition of Anal warts. Currently I'm under treatment and uses Aldara as prescribed. I usually have protected sex and I thought I was exposed to this STI due to recent obsession on anal rimming. Just wanted to clarify the chance of one getting anal/genital warts through unprotected rimming??? How does the types of viruses that results anal warts get transmitted??? is it only through skin to skin contact or can there be a chance of getting these types transmitted through oral sex practises like sucking and rimming????

Thanks and look forward to hearing from you

Hi Viper,
I know this thread is very old, but I just wanted an update to your condition. I had the same exact scenario as you. Did the warts go away? What did you use? Any reoccurrences?
Thank you!

Thanks for commenting...I'm sure i may not be able to find out from whom I got this though I had limited contacts....i did check for visible warts today and coudn't see any except for the fact that my skin around anus has damaged considerably.Is there any solution that i could apply for fast recovery....I think damages have not come from the use of Aldara but my Doctor used some acidic liquid to remove warts initially....Also advice how to get a long with the normal sex life going forward...I'm somewhat concerned now and I'm sure this is affecting me mentally

HPV spreads  through skin to skin contact with an active lesion... condoms do not provide full protection, not more than 70% because you can't cover all the genital skin with a condom... oral to genital or genital to oral transmission is extremely rare but oral to oral... the strains those cause genital warts do not like the oral enviornment...
