A member asked:
What else does hpv cause to the body apart from warts and cancer? does it assist to worsen other diseases if any? will it ever attack the body?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Only warts, cancer: HPV doesn't cause any health problems other than warts and cancer. Cancer is the main serious problem. HPV doesn't worsen any other diseases or "attack the body" other than warts or cancer. Having HPV is normal: it happens to almost every human being who has sex. If you see any genital area bumps, warts, etc see your doctor; and have regular pap smears. Good luck!
