A member asked:
I have warts on my scrotum. i always use condoms when having sex. can the hpv virus infect my penis? and what are the chances of hr-hpv?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possible: The strains that cause warts are not considered high risk,but you get hr strains the same way.Condoms reduce but do not eliminate transfer of HPV strains. If you have warts, you may also have hr strains but not have any visible lesions.
