A member asked:
I have hpv and like my boyfriend is scared to touch me inside my vagina because he doesnt want to get it on his fingers. can you get hpv like that?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Won't infect fingers: HPV strains are rather specific in the tissues they will infect. Common wart strains will infect fingers or other normal skin surfaces. Genital strains will only infect the genitals, or similar tissue in the mouth or anus. They are not easily passed like a strep or staph bacteria. If he remains scared he can glove up with a simple latex or non-latex glove like he would use a condom.
