A member asked:
What are the symptoms of oral hpv? are the lesions/warts painful? is there any over the counter treatment for them like creams/pills...etc? help
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Usually no symptoms: Oral HPV infections are not rare, but a lot less common than genital ones. Almost all oral HPV infections are asymptomatic and invisible: no warts, bumps, pain, burning, or anything else. When warts do appear, they are painless bumps, often with a "cauliflower" appearance. There are no recommended OTC treatments. Happily, oral HPV is rarely dangerous. If you suspect oral warts, see your doctor.
