Hello
Thanks for posting your query at DoctorSpring.com. I can understand your concern.
You seem to be having anal warts. These are caused by hpv virus. This is usually sexually transmitted. I would recommend application of aldara cream on the warts which would resolve them.
You will need a prescription for the cream. Please let me know if you have any queries.
Take care

Okay, thanks for the information. Should I be worried about anything to do with HIV? I known warts are a form or HPV. I just didnt know. I was tested roughly a year and a half ago and I tested negative for all stds and I have only had 1 sexual (protected) and oral partner since then. I'm sure I'm just being worrisome but I was just wondering.
Hello
Thanks for your reply.
It's not necessary that since you have anal warts you would have hiv. However, anal warts suggest a high risk sexual behavior. Since the tests have revealed that you do not have hiv, it would be ok to assume that you do not have hiv. But it's best to get regular testing done and have a protected sexual intercourse.
Take care

Okay. Lastly, do canker sores of the mouth have any relation to hpv? I just have bad canker sores at the moment. I drink a lot of acidic drinks and such. But I wasn't sure. Thanks!
Hello. Thank you for writing to us again.
Canker sores in the mouth are not related to hpv.
It can be due to the acidic drinks.
