There are probably loads of different ways but quite frankly I wouldn't want to know all of them.

Genital warts (or condyloma, or condylomata acuminata) is a highly contagious sexually transmitted infection. Caused by some variants of the Human papillomavirus, typically HPV 6 and HPV 11, it is spread during oral, genital, or anal sex with an infected partner. \n\nGenital warts often disappear even without treatment. In other cases, they eventually may develop a fleshy, small raised growth. There is no way to predict whether the warts will grow or disappear. Therefore, if you suspect you have genital warts, you should be examined and treated, if necessary.\n\nDepending on factors such as the size and location of the genital warts, a doctor will offer you one of several ways to treat them.\n\nImiquimod, (Aldara®) a topical immune response cream which you can apply to the affected area \nA 20% podophyllin anti-mitotic solution, which you can apply to the affected area and later wash off \nA 0.5% podofilox solution, applied to the affected area but shouldn’t be washed off \nA 5% 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) cream \nTrichloroacetic acid (TCA) \nPulsed dye laser \nLiquid nitrogen cryosurgery \n\nAlthough treatments can get rid of the warts, they do not get rid of the HPV virus, so warts can recur after treatment. The body's immune system typically clears the virus anywhere from 6 months to two years, but it occasionally remains in the body for a lifetime.[1] The state of the immune system determines the chances of ridding the virus entirely, and can be affected by factors such as HIV infection, certain medications, stress, or illness.[2] There is even some suggestion that effective treatment of the wart may aid the body's immune response.

There is no treatment available over the counter for genital warts.  Please don't use any old wart tincture - it won't work.\n\nYou need to see your GP or STD clinic.  The most common treatment is to freeze them off with liquid nitrogen.\n\nThey are highly contagious so you'd be wise to avoid sexual contact till you get the all clear - unless you want a miffed off partner.

Genital warts are a virus, called Human Papilloma Virus (HPV). There are over 230 different virus types that are considered HPV. \n\nYou need to see your doctor or gynecologist and have the test for HPV. Once a positive result is achieved, there are several ways to get rid of the warts. Keep in mind that the VIRUS itself never goes away, even if all of the warts are removed. An outbreak can happen at any time. Be sure and tell any sexual partners you may have in the future that you have warts, because they are contageous (obviously).\n\nUse of condoms during sex will prevent the spread of HPV. \n\nTypically, if the outbreak is small, the biopsy of the wart can remove it. If not, there is laser treatment. If that doesn't work, then your doctor can freeze them off.\n\nInbetween your test for HPV, biopsy, and a single given treatment, you will need to have a pap smear to determine the results. \n\nAfter you are wart-free for a full six months, your ob/gyn will go back to recommending a pap smear annually. \n\nGo to www.webmd.com for more information on what HPV is, how to test for it, and treatment options. Please visit your doctor, soon, though, because *some* of the HPV viruses (about 20, in fact) may lead to cervical cancer over time.

Genital warts are only spread  with skin to skin contact during anal or vaginal sex so it is not possible to get it from a toilet seat.

They are two separate STDs. Talk to your doctor about this. Having genital warts is not a sign of HIV.

Genital warts often occur in clusters and can be very tiny or can spread into large masses in the genital or anal area. In women the warts occur on the outside and inside of the vagina, on the opening (cervix) to the womb (uterus), or around the anus. While genital warts are approximately as prevalent in men, the symptoms of the disease may be less obvious. When present, they usually are seen on the tip of the penis. They also may be found on the shaft of the penis, on the scrotum, or around the anus. Rarely, genital warts also can develop in the mouth or throat of a person who has had oral sex with an infected person.\n\nAs for masturbating, that could definitely cause them to spread around your genital area. I would definitely get them treated as soon as possible.

The HPV that causes warts on your hands and feet is different from the HPV that causes genital warts. So, no, you won't give a girl genital warts. Unless, of course, you're infected with genital HPV. The problem is that there are no real symptoms in men, other than the actual genital warts. There are some strains of HPV that don't show any outward symptoms.\n\nAs far as condom use goes, condoms are great for preventing HIV and pregnancy, but they don't necessarily work for preventing HPV. Your best bet is to practice abstinence, but if you must have sex, use a condom. In fact, the CDC is recommending that you change condoms in between sexual acts - so maybe one condom for oral sex, then a new one for vaginal sex. Good luck to you.

There isn't a "natural" way as far as I know, but they recommend using duct tape to get rid of warts- you could try that..

human papilloma virus\n\nThere are two different kinds, one causes genital warts like herpes, the other is the major cause of cervical cancer.  Pester your doctor into telling you which kind you have.  Make her do a test of the cells on the inside of your cervix, it's like an advanced pap smear; I think it was called colposcopy when I had it done.    Keep in mind before you get all panicky that OVER 85% of females who have had any sort of sexual contact at all are carrying this virus.  You can carry the virus and have nothing ever happen from it.  You are not alone.  Go do a google search and you will see what I mean.

I suppose you can get warts just about anywhere - although I have not heard about warts on the eyes/tear ducts.  It could simply be a sty.\n\nIf you do have a wart on your tear duct, it would almost certainly not be the type that is transmitted sexually.  HPV is a huge family of viruses that cause warts.  Some types of HPV like your fingers, others the bottoms of your feet, and some like the genitals.  \n\nThe type that like your genitals will not transmit to your fingers or other body parts, and the same goes for warts on your fingers - they will not transmit to your gentials.\n\nAs for HPV causing cervical cancer - there are high risk & low risk types.  Low risk usually does not cause cervical cancer, and high risk may.  High risk HPV on the cervix usually does not cause warts.  A Pap smear will show changes in cells, and a doctor can order further tests.

Genital warts are the most common STD there is.  I read somewhere that over 90% of all humans carry it.\nAre genital warts serious?\n\n    * They can be. For most people warts are only a bother, and are treated if you wish. If a woman has warts on the cervix (opening to the womb), they can be a problem. It is rare, but sometimes having warts can cause a woman to have a pap smear that is not normal, (including changes that may lead to cancer). For this reason, women with warts on the cervix should have a pap smear test (part of a pelvic exam) every six months to one year. Men and women who have warts on or inside the anus should have an exam every year.

As your body develops an antibody response to the virus you can see a remission, which varies in degree by individuals.  However I am concerned that you say this is yor 3 year old niece that has the warts.  It is extremely unlikely a 3 year old would have genital warts unless they were sexually molested.  If that is the case you need to take steps to protect her and root out the molester, immediately.\n\nNote the new vaccine that was recently approved is only effective against the two genotypes of HPV that cause cervial cancer - it has no effect on the genotype of HPV that causes genital warts whatsoever and is not applicable.

You might want to go see your doctor to get checked.  It is spread by skin-to-skin contact so wearing protection wont help.  You could possibly get genital warts.  You should do a search on the Internet just type in HPV and it'll give you a lot of different articles you can read up on.  It will also help you understand the severity of the virus.
