I hope not as I’ll be breastfeeding my new baby later this year. I was assulted an got high risk hpv and also possibly low risk warts as I have unexplained (so far unexplained) itching and burning in my vulva vag and spread to anus, and discharge. Yep been testing multiple times for everything and no answers. No doc can see visible warts but something is not right. As most people don’t have itching etc they just tell me it’s jsut in my head. I’ve only been with my long term partner other than this one off assult so I know how I’m feeling not right as I’ve never felt this way before. I’m still with my kids dad and since giving him oral sex my throat burns too. He goes down on me too and then like licks my nipples etc so I was terrified of getting hpv on my nippe esp high risk and then giving my baby oral hpv through breastfeeding:( I feel so diseased and don’t want to disease my kids! They talk about hpv like it’s no big deal but it is !

Oral tranmission is a lot less common. I kiss others on the lips without fears of exposing them. Try not to worry, talk to your sis about your fears openly and agree to use care.

if you touch her lips, wash your hand and try not to touch yourself, maybe wait out 2 hours.

There is no way HPV can transmit through clothes or towels. HPV is transmitted only through skin contact and only on genital area or mouth (not on nipples or eyes)
There is no reason to be afraid.

No, maybe if she used a towel to wipe herself and you touched your genitals right after with the same towel. (more a risk for couples who share intimacy and objects) Even that would not carry a high risk but to be safe do not share anything like that. Washing clothes is fine. I live with others and share laundry, cooking, all the normal life stuff. I am careful to always wash my hands after using the bathroom.

No, the process of washing clothe and letting it dry is long enough to let the virus die out. Zero chance getting HPV virus from fresh clothe. Sharing underwear is a different issue though

There are many strains of HPV, all warts are caused by HPV but each strain is site specific. I have never seen anything regarding gential warts found in eyes or on nipples.

If you are asking can HPV be spread via objects, transmission can't be ruled out this way. It's rare and there needs to be an entry point. Most often gential HPV is spead via skin to skin gential contact.
