How High-Risk HPV is transmitted?
Hi everyone. There are a lot of contradicting information at the internet. I am concerned that whether hand-genital transmission of High-Risk HPV is possible. According to this website,
http://www.phac-aspc.gc.ca/std-mts/hpv-vph/hpv-vph-qaqr-eng.php
It is written that :
"The types of HPV that infect the anal and genital (anogenital) areas are not the same as the ones that infect other areas of the body such as the fingers, hands and face."
However, there have been several websites which include CDC, stated that close skin to skin contact during sexual activities, will possibly transmit the infection as well. But they did not specify whether this include High-Risk HPV or not, which cause penile cancer.
I really hope to have some clarification here. I know I posted at another group about herpes exposure through handjob, but this post is specifically for High-Risk HPV transmission. Hope there is someone who can answer me whether High-Risk HPV transmission ( Not other common HPV ) is possible through handjob. Thank you

Hi can someone give me an answer? I really am sorry if I posted or comment too much... but I am too anxious. If I am super unfortunate and are infected with high risk HPV and even more unfortunately PERSISTENT HPV infection occurs, is my chance of getting penile cancer in the future is still very low ? Please allow me to ask this question in this thread one LAST TIME. I really appreciate it. Thank you
Hi. thanks again for replying. I am very anxious about this and I have searched through Internet repeatedly. There are quite a number of websites that support that handjob have small chance of transmiting hpv. I wonder how you are so sure about this?
Thank you. Any reply is appreciated
