Genital warts?????????

I know this sounds nasty, but I have a fiance' with a wart on his foot, and now on his genital area. Is it possible that he spread the wart himself, or can you only contract genital warts from genital warts. I have seen him scratching his privates alot, so I thought maybe this was the cause of the wart. Anyway, I guess he is prone to warts. While he was growing up he often had warts on his hands or feet. Serious answers only please. Thanks!

I've researched the web, but different sites give me different answers.

Genital and more common warts are caused by the same virus [HPV - Human Papilloma Virus] but by different strains.. So the strain of the common wart isnt the same strain as the Genital wart. Common warts strains arent as highly contagious as Genital wart strains, but the likeliness is that he contracted genital warts elsewhere from his foot.
It is advisable that he seek medical attention [possible HPV vaccinations] and also yourself for that matter as they can flare due to warts shedding skin, and being transferred through scratching to hands and other parts of the exposed body that comes into contact besides the region around the genitals..
But to answer you original question, no i dont think it was caused by the wart on his foot.

I highly doubt it. He may have been carrying it for a while (the virus) but didn't show any physical symptoms until now. \

You should get yourself tested for HPV.

just goto the Dr. and get a serious answer. Do you really think your going to get one here?

he probaly already had hpv and just finally had a flare up.Which probaly means u have it.GET TO A DOC! there have been many links to warts spreading to genitals but no concreate evidence.
good luck

well I feel you should consult your doctors before getting wrong information i dont know if foot wart is the same as genital wart

Warts on the hands and feet are of a completely different source. Warts on the Genitals are Genital Warts more commonly known as Herpes. They are spread from sexual contact. Sorry to spread the bad news to you lad.
