I have a project on this and I cant find the symptoms, can someone please help me?
Most HPV infections have no signs or symptoms. so someone can be infected and pass the disease on to another person without knowing. however, some people do get visible warts.
People often don't have any symptoms from genital warts — the warts usually do not hurt or itch, which is one reason why people may not know they have them. Doctors can diagnose warts by examining the skin closely (sometimes with a magnifying glass) and using a special solution to make them easier to see. A Pap smear (a test that is performed during a gynecologic exam) and other tests can help diagnose an HPV infection.
Experts believe that when a wart is present, the virus is active and more likely to be contagious. When the wart disappears, the virus is still there but may be less likely to spread.
There are over 100 different strains of HPV. most people never show symptoms, or even know they have it. Women generally find out if a pap smear shows abnormal cells on the cervix. Aside from an outbreak of gential warts, men will most likely never know if they have it as it is not included in standard STD testing. It is estimated that 80% of the sexually active people in this country have HPV. most women will come in contact with 5-15 different strains in their lifetime. your body will usually kill the virus on its own. If you have had sex with more than one person who has had sex with more than one person, you've probably come in contact with HPV.
i know for hpv2 (genital herpes) usually when someone gets infected with it they have a really bad cold/fever and then bumps show up within a couple of days and if you get on medication they will be gone within 2-4 days
In most cases there are not any symptoms of HPV and the only way that you can tell is by having regular smear tests. in some cases they can cause genital warts.
