A member asked:
Does non-sexual hpv regular wart viruses also cause warts on the regular skin on penis shaft?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Yes: Ordinary warts can occur anywhere on the body, including the penis. This is an important point; just because you have warts on your penis does not mean, necessary, that they were transmitted to you sexually.

Is it possible to be infected with HPV virus and get labia minora skin warts without sexual contact?
53 year old. If last sexual contact was 8+ years ago will I likely be free from HPV virus that can cause genital warts? More worried that prospective partner may be vulnerable. Never knowingly exposed, just want to be sure?
When i was 8 a dog licked my genital. Its sad and depressing. Later i noticed 2 warts around my penis. Idk if i had them before the event. Urologist told me they were normal warts no genital hpv. That dogs cant infect us and i have no sexual events
Are there any confirmed cases of genital hpv (warts) being transferred via fomites? Eg non-sexually. I get a lot of anxiety about accidentally transmitting the virus to a friend or family member?
Ive heard HPV can be transmitted by skin-to-skin contact. So, if a caregiver has HPV, can I or my children get it by being around her? No sexual intimate interactions but hugging or holding? Is all HPV considered as STD even flat warts on the face?
