Cause of Condyloma, Condyloma risk factors

Health Description
Health Consultation Description: I am 20 years old, I have never had sex (or any variation: oral, ect) I have never even been touched in my private areas, nor have never touched another person's. I have had a wart-like thing pretty much on my anus. I was younger, and thought it was some sort of hemorrhoid...a few months ago I went to the gynecologist for the first time- they checked it out, I had surgery to remove it- then a couple months later I get a letter in the male from the gynecologist saying "condyloma confirmed" I didn't even know what that was. I've done research and everything I have ever read said it HAS to have a genital-to-genital contact to be transmitted. I am not one to doubt doctors, but what is the possibility I have been misdiagnosed?

Condition analysis:
Thank you for query.the possibilities of misdiagnosis after histopathology is unlikely.warts can be transmitted by skin to skin contact .it could have been infected to you in the child hood by skin to skin contact.The incubation period varies from days to months to years.Many times it would not have been significantly noticed as it is not in a visible area to you.i hope you get the doubts cleared.You can get back to me for any clarifications with the details.

Instructions:
Cause of Condyloma: Although genital warts are caused by human papilloma virus (HPV), many more people are infected with the virus than have warts.  While HPV infections are not reportable as a sexually transmitted disease (STD), there is no question that they are indeed sexually transmitted.

HPV is a papillomavirus containing double-stranded DNA.  It is the same shape as the herpesvirus.  It does not appear to be blood-borne.  Because some condyloma spontaneously disappear, as do some common body warts, it is clear that a large role in the infection is played by the individual patient’s cell-mediated immunity.

About 30$ of women who have HPV of the cervix, as diagnosed by Pap smear, go on to develop cervical dysplasia.  It is clear that some forms of dysplasia and cervical cancer are caused by HPV.

Recently, researchers have been typing HPV; there are now over 45 known HPV types.  Of these, HPV type 6 and type 11 involve the genitals in about 10% to 15% of cases.  HPV types 16, 18, 31 and others are found mainly in cervical, vaginal and vulvar carcinoma.
