To complete this How-To you will need: An understanding of wart transmission Step 1: Warts are hardened growths that occur on the skin. Warts are caused by some strains of a virus known as the human papillomavirus, or HPV. Tip: The four types are plantar, genital, common, and face. Plantar warts are most commonly found on the bottoms of the feet, genital warts on the genitals, common warts on hands and fingers, and flat warts on the face. Step 2: Protect yourself by not touching someone else’s wart. Tip: You can also contract a wart virus by touching or sharing things that someone with a wart has touched. Step 3: Wash your hands regularly and thoroughly. Just as frequent hand-washing prevents the transmission of germs, it can also combat the transmission of the wart virus. Step 4: Avoid walking barefoot outside or in common areas like public bathrooms, gym locker rooms, and kitchens. Warts like moisture.

I want honest and mature answers. Anyone with anything juvenile to say can find another question to answer.

If a woman carrying the genital herpes virus touches herself and moments later touches another woman’s genitals, what are the chances of the person without the virus of getting infected? I hear the chances are from little to nothing unless the person carrying the virus is in the middle of an outbreak.

i have genital herpes and my girlfriend doesn’t, what are the chances of spreading it with unprotected sex? she has allergic reactions to condoms and doesn’t want to use them but i don’t want to risk getting her infected.
and yes she knows i have herpes

I would like to know what the actual chances of getting genital herpes are if you have a cold sore on your lip (Herpes Type 1), touch it, and then touch your own genitalia. Anyone who can provide a link with actual statistics on this exact topic will get 10 points on the spot. It seems like, while the risk is there, there is less chance with this than with, say, oral sex.

Please don’t send me some link saying “you can get genital herpes from touching cold sores”….everyone knows that there is that chance. I am wondering what the exact chances of getting it are from touching the sore by mistake and then touching your genitalia.

Thanks.

my 23yo best friend just found out she has HPV and they also found abnormal cells. They are going to run test to see if she has cervical cancer or not. What are the chances of this being cancer?
