HPV is a sexually transmitted virus that can cause warts, an invisible infection only found on pap smear, or, in the worst case scenario, it can cause cervical cancer.  It is important for a woman to have pap smears every year and to keep the number of sexual partners to a minimum to reduce the risk of getting a dangerous strain of the virus.  Men obviously contract the virus too, but they can not be easily diagnosed if they do not have visible warts.  Condoms can reduce transmission, but are not perfect because the virus infects nearby skin too, not just the penus and vagina.

Genital warts are caused by the human papilloma virus.  Genital warts are very contagious and are spread during oral, vaginal, or an-al sex with an infected partner. They are transmitted by skin-to-skin contact during vaginal, an-al, or (rarely) or-al sex with someone who is infected. About two-thirds of people who have sexual contact with a partner with genital warts will develop warts, usually within 3 months of contact.

Infection with HPV usually does not cause symptoms. Most HPV infections are latent, meaning the virus is present but is not multiplying or producing any signs of infection. Visible genital warts appear only during active infection. (However, you may spread the virus even if you do not have warts.) Warts may look like tiny bunches of cauliflower or like flat, white areas that may be difficult to see.

Medical science offers several invasive and potentially painful methods of removing warts. Electrocautery removes warts on the body by burning them with a low-voltage electrified probe. \n\n    Cryotherapy involves freezing the warts off with super-cold temperatures. And, of course, there’s always traditional surgery. Just have them cut off. \n\n    Of course, if you have extensive scarring from any of these procedures, you could be permanently disfigured. These treatments are certainly risky, not to mention expensive. And there’s no guarantee the warts won’t just grow back

It can be normal.  Some people are naturally proned to getting warts.  Some have them their whole lives and some develope them as they get older.  They my have warts constantly growing on their hands, chest, face, etc.   The warts come back no matter how much treatment is done.\n\nYou should still get these check.  You can catch some VD in a public bathroom or through shaking hands with someone who did not wash after masturbating and then using the bathroom yourself.

I have had one removed with lazers. They numb up the area first then they cut it out with lazers. My wound bled badly and the wart is comming back. Just so you know a wart is a defect in the immune system thats what causes them. Your daughter might have them for the rest of her life. But she is young so her immune systme might take care of the problem eventually. I wouldn't recomed the sugery unless the wart is very large and noticable it is very painful about a day after the sugery. Hope this helps you make a decision.

This is Human Pappiloma Virus (HPV), most commonly known as genital warts. Contagious and incurable, it's most common symptom are small warts around the genitals and anus resembling flesh colored caulifowers. The warts can be removed by a doctor, but the underlying disease is incurable and can be spread with or without the presence of warts. If left untreated, can cause sterility. Use a condom from now on, or send her packin'.

Sometimes if it small. Large warts can actually get knocked off and not come back, a friend of mine had a big wart on his finger and we were playing basket ball, we seen his finger bleeding and he had knocked the wart off never to come back. If, it been there for 2 years it has probably Homesteaded. Many ways to approach this if you want to remove yourself. One, freeze with dry ice, be sure not to touch the ice with bare hands and holding with tweezers/etc. freeze only the wart. Two, take a teaspoon and heat over a fire (Kitchen if possible) then with the rounded side of the spoon burn the wart. Three, cut it off, may take the help of another person, how this work; use needle nose pliers or something to hold the wart and pull it up, then take a razor blade and cut, you may need to feel for where it at, but, usually if done correct you get the roots and it never come back and sometimes not leave a scar. Wart remover can work, the spray stuff do the same as dry ice.

as the lady said on bikini line its ingrowers. if they are around the hole lips etc and are not painful but slightly irritable then they are more than likely warts. although called warts they dont always look like warts you get on your hand.\ni had them and they were just little bumps, they were not big enough to have burnt off ( which is sometimes the case) the doc just painted them i left them for a week then used a cream for 3 days now they are gone. once you have them once they could easily come back but also may never come back. most people carry the infection but they do not always come out

I suppose you can get warts just about anywhere - although I have not heard about warts on the eyes/tear ducts.  It could simply be a sty.\n\nIf you do have a wart on your tear duct, it would almost certainly not be the type that is transmitted sexually.  HPV is a huge family of viruses that cause warts.  Some types of HPV like your fingers, others the bottoms of your feet, and some like the genitals.  \n\nThe type that like your genitals will not transmit to your fingers or other body parts, and the same goes for warts on your fingers - they will not transmit to your gentials.\n\nAs for HPV causing cervical cancer - there are high risk & low risk types.  Low risk usually does not cause cervical cancer, and high risk may.  High risk HPV on the cervix usually does not cause warts.  A Pap smear will show changes in cells, and a doctor can order further tests.

Genital Warts is believed [ maybe ] to be from sex\n\nMiraculous cures of cutaneous warts are as commonplace as they are curious. Ask about them in any group of people, and you will easily collect typical stories.\nThe methods used to get rid of the range from the straightforward to the outright peculiar,with no consistency.\n\nCutaneous warts are not functional problems. They are real discrete, physical organic growths, made up of abnormal tissue infected with viruses.\nNevertheless, they are susceptible to virtually instant healing brought about by belief in treatment that cannot have significant effects on the viruses or the abnormal tissue.

No, this is an old wives tale.  Genital warts arnt caused by normal warts, they are caused by the Human papillomavirus, or HPV.  Genital warts are can only be spread from sex with someone containing genital warts, therefore infecting you as well.
