Gential Warts with out having sex?

Answer 1

Sure.

HPV (the virus that causes genital warts) can be spread by sex (vaginal, oral, or anal) and by any DIRECT skin to skin contact with an infected area. So, even if you never actually had sex, just foreplay or "dry humping" is enough to spread the virus. Any kind of DIRECT skin to skin contact can spread HPV.

If you are concerned you might have contracted HPV and have developed genital warts from it then visit your doctor and have them take a look at you. They are the only ones who can properly diagnose you and offer/provide treatment. Good luck!

Answer 2

its not likely, It could be a skin tag.

Genital warts, also known as condylomata acuminata or venereal warts, are one of the most common types of sexually transmitted diseases. As the name suggests, genital warts affect the moist tissues of the genital area. They may look like small, flesh-colored bumps or have a cauliflower-like appearance. Genital warts may be as small as 1 millimeter in diameter — smaller than the width of a ballpoint pen refill — or may multiply into large clusters.

In women, genital warts can grow on the vulva, the walls of the vagina, the area between the external genitals and the anus, and the cervix. In men, they may occur on the tip or shaft of the penis, the scrotum or the anus. Genital warts can also develop in the mouth or throat of a person who has had oral sexual contact with an infected person.

Although genital warts can be treated with medications and surgery, they are a serious health concern. The virus that causes them — the human papillomavirus (HPV) — has been associated with cervical cancer. It has also been linked with other types of genital cancers, such as cancer of the penis.

Answer 3

Probably not...most STDs are passed from sexual contact alone and although some can be passed genetically, as long as your parents don't have a history of it, it shouldn't be something to worry about. Genital warts also are usually in clusters, so it's not really too much to be concerned about I think. If you are still worried, see a doctor.
