just diagnosed with hpv/ genital warts. I have a lot of questions
Ok so the same girl that i got hpv from i also went down on. I heard that genital warts in the mouth is rare, but i still would like to know what it's like. Does it feel like fever blisters/ cold sores? Does it look/ feel exactly like the warts in the genital region? Do they hurt like cold sores?
And what really are the statistics? How many people with genital warts have them also in the mouth OF the people who gave oral to the carrier. I just need to know where this will lead me. What will happen?
It's not a couple of warts that i have to freeze off every month in my genital region that bothers me. What would i do if i got it in the mouth...and in the eyes? It would be COMPLETELY life changing. Already my life has been changed.
If i could get some answers that would be great,
Thanks,
Jesse

Thanks. Your help was much appreciated.
Cold sores are from the herpes virus and warts will not feel anything like cold sores. Warts in the mouth look like a raised bump, usually the same colour inside the mouth or white, but all warts look slightly different on different people. They will not be painful. If you develop warts in the throad or vocal cords, you may experience a hoarse voice or uncomfortableness.
I don't know the statistics exactly, but I know it is rare. Warts in the mouth are less contagious than in the genital region.
I've never heard of getting genital warts in the eyes. If you notice bumps in your mouth then see a dentist or an ENT and they will biopsie it and remove it depending on the location.
Just to add, don't let this virus determine your life. It is a very emotional thing but it is manageable and not life threatening. Be careful you don't get paranoid and start imagining things that aren't there, because it happens to a lot of people and it leads to lots of anxiety. Try your best to put it to the back of your mind, work on getting healthy and if you happen to notice anything in your mouth (odds are you wont) then get checked
