Hi, guys I'm posting a lot these days LOL,so I'm sorry for the inconvenience. When i was relapsing there were a situation in which i was still relapsing and there were emergency happened in the same time, for my younger brother(11 years old) ,so he needed me to give him a lemon fruit (he was vomiting),so i picked up one and washed it with some water quickly and my fingers tips and i gave it to him. If I'm infected with hpv can this transmit hpv to my brother and cause him cancer ? Please answer me, I'm talking seriously. Because I'm so afraid of causing such a thing for my younger brother. Because my cousin from mother's side had lymphoma because his both Grandpa died with it.
Only a few variants of HPV can cause specific cancers. The odds of him contracting it from you touching a lemon and him eating it and then it giving him cancer is so monstrously low that I don't think I could put enough zeros to make my point.
Hey there. First of all, hpv is spread through sex of any type (oral, anal or vaginal) which means that at least one of sexual organs have to be included for a person to get or give another person this disease. So the chances of you transmitting your hpv (if you have it) to your brother is zero as no genitals were included in the process which you described so do not worry about it anymore.
İ think so,but since i read that there is possibility of non-sexual transmission and the ocd loop started in my head. But let me thank your assurance and your efforts. And I'm really sorry for everyone i might annoy him.
Still do not worry, even if that would really happen only in very rare and extreme scenarios he would get this hpv but it's extremely rare (1:10000000000)
My worries about myself is always nothing in comparison to worry about the others. İt's not only because he's my brother, but that's how I'm. And that's another reason to abandon my career because I'm a nursing student.
Because I'm a nursing student and i read as i told you and I've just remembered a bad memory which is I've been assaulted when i was a child. It's not a so vivid in my mind but it exists but i can say that i did be assaulted by anal sex but rubbing genitalia. It's a thing i didn't want to say before.
Ok now I understand you and I feel sorry for you it's a trauma and it's not so easy to move on like people are saying. But however you must move on try to meditate and take care of yourself and your brother as much as you can. God be with you.
P it it o Thanks for your support. Actually, i don't know if I'm infected or not but to think that i may be the reason for causing a problem to someone else this idea is killing me. Thanks bro for your talking to me.
You're welcome. This is what this community is all about to share our problems so that we can together solve them. I also know that in many cases hpv cures itself with time.
Why would you or anyone want to have any cancer at all as it can escalate to longterm diseases and situations where you lay on your bed sick and tired not able to do anything useful. It's not just about life or death it's about that even little cancer dramatically reduces the quality of life that one experiences so stop talking like that.
