Should I Tell This Guy He Has Warts?

fuckin troll op

 

The thing about HPV is that nobody really knows right? Every internet source tells you something different as well as your doctor. Ok here's what I do know about warts if they were on your hands or feet...which are often treated the same way they would be on your genitals.
Warts on the hands and feet, once cleared are gone. You do still carry the virus of course but if you high five a person that had a wart on their finger 5 years ago, even with a break in the skin, you're not going to get a wart on your hand.
Believe it or not, despite what the Internet tells you, it's the same with GW. I talked to both my dermatologist and my GYN about it. The only reason is spreads when you don't have any apparent warts is usually bc you have warts on your cervix or they are too small and you don't realize you have them.
So I just got a pap and it was normal, I don't have warts on my cervix. I also make her examine me really carefully to ensure I'm clear.
Also, just because you have warts on your genitals doesn't mean it's genital warts. They go by the medical name condyloma acumimatum and those only exist on the genitals and are caused by HPV types 6 and 11 most commonly (low risk) and that's also a different HPV than the one that causes cervical cancer. High risk doesn't cause warts. But guess what, you can get a plain old verruca on your junk like you would on your finger, most likely spread that way and it's not considered a genital wart.

It's like annoyingly complicated and I harassed my poor GYN to hell years ago when it first happened. I didn't give it to him. I also only hooked up with him a few weeks prior and that's not enough time for it to happen. He may have had them the time before that, I'm really not sure.

 

just tell him , damn.

 

You missed the opportunity.

I'd have been like, "Dude! WTF is this shit?!".

 

My thoughts all along were yea he likely knows and thats crazy messed up but also,being that many guys shave too its easy to confuse w ingrown hairs. I dont know abound warts but I know ingrown hairs d herpes simplex, can be difficul to tell. In my honest opinion, you know him, we dont..if you think he tries to be honest ask if hes even gotten an ingrown hair down there...then gage his reaction...and then talk to him about how thats not always what is is, again gaging reaction and ask if he was ever tested and then kindly bring up what you think. But like I said, you know him, you know his character, we dont.

 

Yeah I'm assuming he knows but is maybe in denial or just being a d bag about it. There's no way he could miss them...there's a 10% change it could be skin tags. They do tend to exist in skin folds and they were right at the base...atleast two of them. I'm pretty sure it's warts though. I haven't spoken to him since bc I don't wanna hook up with him anymore and that's sort of all we are. I guess if we talk again soon, I'll bring it up lightly.

 

My question is, are you sure the growths you've discovered on him were warts? Because there are things known as pearly penile papules which are benign. I have them myself. But the thing is that many people mistake them for warts, and visit their doctors only to be told they are harmless.

 

I know that such situations suck, but better to be sincere with your partners and tell them the truth.

 

wow. this post is fairly old. And I can't believe I didn't post here!

Ok, as someone who has caught them several times and gone to the doctor to have them frozen off my junk, I would say yes to all. Honesty is definitely the best policy, and what @LecrameMark said about sincerity is leaps and bounds beyond. I would seriously be happy if a girl trusted me enough to tell me beforehand, but that's just me. And anything beats the let down feeling of having been infected.

The last time I caught them, I remember going to the doctor, but not the actual freezing. But the times before that I can remember. They get you to drop your skivvies then they bring in a little metal flask of liquid nitrogen. It's a bit cold; I think it stings but I can't remember really it was so long ago. It's not fun, but it's a weight off of the chest once it's done.

The problem: I don't know if I have HPV now. Because liquid nitrogen never did anything to cure that. If so, I've likely passed it along to at least several women throughout my life. Very sad because it causes uterine or cervical or other types of cancer in women. I wouldn't be half surprised if it causes some kind of cancer in men as well though.

 

So you've been going around infecting people with cancer?

 

Me? Um, I just don't know.

 

Shame.

 

People, when you are in such a situation, better tell about every problem you see in your partner. My ex-girlfriend had the same problem, she knew about warts she is having but didn't decide to treat them till I didn't tell her. The dermatologist told the options to remove them and she chooses wartremover.net/ ointments to get rid off them. Before we broke up she treated all warts. The point of my story is, tell your partners about all problems you see in them.

 

Dude you want to say that some ointments helped her to remove all those things?

 

@soulcompromise you are crazy mate. I can't judge you, but it is wrong, if you know that you have a problem, you have to cure it. And there are a lot of methods. But just like I mentioned I am nobody to judge and to tell you what to do.

 

Maybe you could share some of the cures. My doctor didn't mention it.

 

When I was in PA school, I had to do a clinical rotation with a general surgeon. One of his patients had HPV all around his anus and up his rectum. The surgeon had to try and treat them but it was impossible to get rid of all of them up inside his rectum. I felt sorry for the guy but at the time (31+ years ago) the only recourse was to take out the rectum and go to the "bag". I had to rotate to a different town so don't know how he came out.

 

I've probably got polyps in my anus. I can't believe someday I'm going to have to go to the doctor and have him stick things in my anus. Life, eh? It's just grand.

 

You Never Know You Just Might Enjoy It......



Cheers Glen.
