A member asked:
Can hpv be spread through indirect contact? for example, if my finger touches a genital wart and i lick my finger with my tongue, can i get mouth wart

No risk: This is one of at least 3 questions you have asked about HPV, all of them suggesting you are unnecessarily worried about catching it. You are at risk of HPV only by sex with infected partners. Nobody can say the risk is zero with this sort of contact, but it is far too low to worry about. If you are sexually active, even with only one partner, that's how you'll get HPV someday. No other way.
