I was wondering if you could transmit the oral kind of genital warts through kissing mouth to mouth. If anyone has some input on this, it would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

AS FAR AS I KNOW, it's rare to pass hpv to the oral area.

it is rare to get warts in your mouth even if you are giving oral.It is a slim chance.Besides warts is not a kissing disease.It is spread through sexual contact...

Warts and any other strain of HPV is transmitted through skin-to-skin contact, but it's VERY rare to pass it along orally, ALTHOUGH the American Medical Association has reported that 20% of all oral cancers are attributed to HPV. But it is VERY rare.
