A member asked:

I just found out i have hpv. does that mean that my 1 year old has it too? i found my first wart several weeks ago.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Hard to say: At least with the wart strains you have visible signs that you have it. Babies who deliver vaginally can acquire the virus during birth and have it show up as genital or vocal cord warts that would show up within 2 yrs of birth.In most cases the mother has warts at delivery.Shedding of virus happens most then & might after the warts clear but not often.Some actually have a c-section to avoid expos
