      No need to panic,

      First you need to book an appointment with your doctor. HPV is annoying but the wart type is not life threatening. You can get treatment to have them removed. Most of people eliminate the virus from their body within 1 to 3 years and do not experience recurrence.

      This is very common. Unfortunately it's contagious so you need to advise your partner. Hang in there, you'll be fine.

      Hey, yes this is something that can be taken cared of by your primary doctor. I'm not a health professional so I can be wrong too. It can be folliculitis.

      Yes, warts can never come back once they are removed. Your doctor will tell you you how to handle it if it's the final diagnosis.
