WORRIED-

Also, if someone did have warts that transmitted to somone else. For instance, if someone had smooth white warts and transmitted them to me, would mine be smooth white warts or pink pearly warts? Wouldn't the same strand of HPV look the same on both people?

Also, if someone has 2 or 3 warts on their buttocks, and they sit on your lap (pubic area), is this a viable means of transmission of the virus?

Idk the answer to question 1, but 2 I believe I can answer. Some say that you will always have the virus, while I've read some say that 90% of ppl clear the HPV infection within 24 months, while the other 10% clear it after that.

Wish I could help - I do know you should get the warts biopsied to know what they are.  I have questions too.

I've had bumps (warts?) below the head of my wiener for years, very small, never changing.  One Dr. kind of wasn't concerned.  Had them removed and sent to the lab for biopsy.  My questions are:

1) Does the fact that there was little or no change in these bumps tend to indicate they were not HPV?

2) If it is HPV am I forever infected and a carrier and will therefore infect anyone I have contact with?
