A member asked:
Is it possible to get genital warts (or hpv) just from masturbating? i've never had sex before but woke up with a white lump on the shaft of my penis.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: You do dot get them that way. They are passed from infected genital skin on one person to uninfected genital skin of another person.
