I’m a bit confused about these things. I know HPV is the virus that causes warts and some genital cancers.

Okay, so, say a guy has a wart on his toe.

Can that wart on his toe cause a person he’s intimate with to get genital warts?

Since the virus is in his body, can it just pop up anywhere? Like the genitals?

Even though his foot isn’t anywhere near my nether region? Could I get genital warts from his little toe wart even though I never touch it?

I’m wondering because my boyfriend and I both have one of the cancer causing HPV viruses (he infected me with it about 5 years ago), but now he has a wart on his pinky toe and I’m just a bit anxious about it. He’s never had a wart before, that I know of.

Could you show me some links with proof to your answer?

Until a month ago, I had a huge problem with warts growing on my hands. It started with one, which stubbornly refused to die for 2 years. Then, one day, several others grew. I tried to kill them in a few over-the-counter methods, none of which worked. I had a doctor (general practioner) freeze them, and they came back. Finally I made an appointment with a dermatologist (he can’t see me for 6 months), and in the meanwhile I decided to try one more over the counter treatment. It can’t hurt right? So I picked up a treatment that uses a bandaid to apply 18 percent silaic acid to the warts. To my pleasure, I killed five warts this way–or at least got the visible portion to fall off. Then, to my graet suprise, just after the five warts fell off, abruptly *every* other wart on my hands, of any size or age, shrank away. It took under a week.

Does anyone know why this happened? Did my immune system suddenly "recognize" the HPV virus? I’m deeply curious as to what cause this turn of events.

Are plantar’s warts caused by any other virus? Or is it only HPV?

Is it possible that warts are caused my living in very cold weather? I have recently been living in a place where temperatures go down to – 40C. Also is there any relation between warts and cancer? Is it possible to get warts when you are not sexually active?

Whenever i go to the seafood store to buy crabs the people in the store always have warts and boil looking things on their faces. I’ve always wondered why they had those and thought that it might be linked to crabbing or deep sea fishing. Is that the cause of it?

I have had a wart on my arm all my life,well for as long as I can remember so now that I’ve read up on it & found that warts are caused by HPV does that mean I have it and have had it since I was a child(I am currently 21 yrs. old)

I have tried freezing and the Aldara cream, neither have worked. My doctor told me that he is going to put to sleep to try burning them off, but there is going to be a lot of scarring. Is this a true statement? If so how much scarring and will occur and will it ever go away? Also is it common for them to put you under while they do this procedure?

A friend of mine accidentally burned me while he was smoking. The burn turned into a scab, which I admit, I picked at. It finally healed, but now there’s a bump on my finger. It’s hard with a rough surface, and it hurts to put pressure on it. There’s no more traces of blood or scabbing.. is this a wart?
