Let's look at the facts of HPV, shall we?
There are 100 strains, and 60 of them cause warts on the hands and feet (and occasionally other limbs). The remaining 40 are sexually transmitted. Not all of these strains are harmful, but those that are are usually VERY harmful. The highest risk strains can be responsible for cervical cancer.
HPV can also cause genital warts, however, 90% of genital warts are caused by low risk strains of HPV.
You have a wart on your finger, so it is VERY unlikely that you have a sexually transmitted or high risk strain of HPV. Most people who notify others of their infection have a sexually transmitted strain.0 0 0 0HPV is dangerous for women because it can lead to cervical cancer. So yes, I would say it's a pretty big deal. I would suggest heading to your doctor as soon as possible to see if they are able to screen your for it, or give you an idea of whether or not your symptoms could have been a sign of it. I would recommend not having sex until you figure this out, or at the very least using condoms. It would be best to let your partners know that you're concerned that you may have HPV. Good on you for paying such close attention to this.

But yeah. You definitely need to go to the doctor and get screened. Plus, you should be getting regular STD screenings if you're sexually active.0 1 0 0If you don't know then don't say anything. It's best to just see a doctor for a check up

0 0 0 0there's so many types of HPV. Warts are not a big deal and aren't the same as genital warts (a big deal but still treatable) and thats not the same kind that gives people cancer (I think). If you're really worried, just see a Dr.
