Human papillomavirus (HPV), or human papillomavirus (HPV) (eng. human papillomavirus , HPV) is a group of viruses from the papillomavirus family, including 27 species from five genera and more than 170 types (strains). It is popularly called a wart and can be localized on any part of the body. Infection through household means is possible, for example, through touch, and enters the body through abrasions and scratches on the skin. Self-infection (autoinoculation) is possible during shaving and hair removal.
Like HSV , the human papillomavirus (HPV) has a visible symptomatic picture and has the ability to worsen and grow.
The papilloma virus can be in the human body, but not manifest itself in any way. However, when the immune system is weakened, stress, or some changes in the body, it can manifest itself. The growths can be both large and small in size and can even be found on the eyelids or lips.
