Q: which hpv stains long term persist in our body (hr or lr)? does persistence hpv always show bulky cervix by tvs for woman?

: Either high risk (HR) or low risk (LR) HPV strains can persist for months or years. On average, HR strains persist longer than LR. The large majority of persistent HPV infections do not cause "bulky" cervix or any other visible abnormality.
