A member asked:

If my husband of 10 years has his hpv reactivate does it mean mine will too? i'm afraid i will get warts from him like "kissing warts"

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: There are numerous different wart viruses. Perhaps your initial infection came from him, or his came from you. If you each have a different wart virus you might transmit it to the other person. Even though both have been latent all this time there was a risk of transmission during latency. So you are not likely to get more warts from him but it is possible.
