Venereal Warts - STDs - MedHelp

Welcome to our Forum.??I'll try to help.??I worry that your husband?s warts may be putting more strain on your relationship than it should.??Most adults have HPV infections of some sort and to let the fact that he has warts as a manifestation of HPV infection should not be a concern.

Working through your specific questions:
1. What is the difference between genital warts and venereal warts?
I am not sure I understand the question.??Most warts are caused by HPV.??Warts occurring in the genital areas are sometimes called genital warts and sometimes called venereal warts.??The terms are interchangeable.

2. What is the difference between Venereal warts and venereal disease?
See above.

3. Can I get??Hpv and warts in my mouth and on my lips by performing oral sex on him? 4. Can he pass the HPV to me by performing oral sex on me???
HPV and therefore warts can be transmitted through oral sex.??Thus there is some risk for either you or your husband to both have oral HPV infection and give it to each other.??This is not a common occurrence compared to how common genital infections are and should not be a worry or a concern.

5.Will a Pap smear test for all hpv strands?
Pap smears do not test for HPV.??this should not be a problem for you in terms of your health however since what Pap smear tests do test for the important, but uncommon outcome of HPV infection - abnormalities which predict the possibility of development of cancer.??This then allows the abnormalities to be further investigated and treated as is needed.

6.Can a common wart on the hand cause venereal warts?
This would be uncommon.??There are many types of HPV and the types of virus that cause warts on the hands do not typically cause genital infections.

7.Based on what we have done, is there a good chance that I already have the hpv?
Most people, over 80% of adults in the U.S. have HPV.??If you do, this should not concern you.

I hope my comments are helpful.??EWH
