What can we do besides getting tested or treated? I had the HPV from before and had no signs of outbreaks. We do have unprotected sex but we are being careful. My main concern is the genital warts at this moment. If he gets treated and I get checked (and if treatment is needed) will we be okay to have sex again? Is there a chance that my symptoms are on the inside? Thank you so much for the answers. I am very stressed at this moment and will do what ever I can to make things better.

HPV FACTS
Genital warts are caused by human papilloma virus (hpv). They are very contagious and can spread to other parts of the body (such as groins, inner thighs and pubis) or to other person through skin-to-skin contact normally during genital sex, oral or anus. It can also spread through secondary contact for instance through a towel, sharing underwear or like especially if not washed thoroughly..
Since you have genital warts, there is a high possibility that you got it from your sex partner(s). If you only have sex with your partner then most likely they is infected too. It would be advisable to get them to go for check up. To prevent spreading to others, practice sex safe
TREATMENT
Aldara is quite a new kind of drug that use to remove genital warts. Responses to the cream vary from person to person. It is common to experience redness, swelling, itching, flaking or scabbing at or around the application area during the treatment. Treatment with Aldara cream may also result in swelling, small open sores and drainage. Itching and/ burning is included.
You normally need to apply the cream until the genital warts disappear or up to 16 weeks. New warts may develop during the Aldara treatment. It cannot cure hpv though and so far there is no cure for hpv. Your genital warts may be removed but hpv stays in your body. When you body immune system is not able to fight off the hpv, new warts will recur.
Aldara cream may not remove all genital warts, if it does not work, you need to seek other treatment.

Hope this has given u some relevant information Cheers ♥
If you both test positive(or both negative) and are both monogamous then it should be fine for you to keep having sex. However if your boyfriend tests positive and you test negative then you must start using condoms every time and preferably not have sex when he is having a breakout.
You will!
HPV can still be transmitted through protected sex. The condom does not prevent the spread of HPV. Ask your boyfriend to get checked as genital warts can be caused by Herpes, not just HPV. If it really is HPV, its time both you and your partner get immunized by the HPV vaccine.
