Q: Hpv In My Mouth?
asked by: westiferus on July 11th, 2005

I recently discovered a small white cluster of bumps on the inside of my upper lip. About a week earlier I had received oral sex from a woman I don't really know that well. This is the only way I could have gotten any std and I was wondering if it is possible that these are signs of hpv. The bumps have spread across the inside of my upper lip. I have told my girlfriend about my infidelity and shown her the bumps, but as of now she doesn't have any. I think maybe it's possible that I got something, gave it to my girlfriend and then gotten them in my mouth after going down on her. If anyone has any helpful info, pls post it.

I thought oral hpv was very rare as well. I've got an appointment tomorrow, so i'll post the diagnosis.
