Yes!: The virus never leaves your body. You may have had a papilloma removed from you a year ago but you have the virus in your body and it may cause another papilloma to grow in the future. Think of it like a cold sore on your lip. It will go away but it may recur. You can be checked for antibodies to which serotypes you have and if - to 16 and 18 get the vaccine to protect against cervical cancer.
