HPV affects the skin found in areas of the body exposed to moisture - including the mouth, rectum, cervix and throat.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The highly contagious virus is commonly contracted through unprotected sexual activity. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
According to the NHS, over three quarters of sexually active women contract HPV at some time in their lives.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Because the strand of HPV found in the mouth has strong links to sexual activity, experts have warned it is highly likely oral sex could in turn cause mouth cancer. </div>

Dr Helen Webberley, GP for Oxford Online Pharmacy, highly recommends using condoms or oral barriers when engaging in oral sex.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
She said: “We have known for some time that many genital cancers including vulval, cervical, penile and anal are associated with the wart virus, so it seems a logical conclusion that the same should apply to mouth cancers.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“The HPV vaccine programme… should also be embraced and will help to reduce the ongoing prevalence of these cancers.” </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The NHS estimated almost 7,000 people in the UK were diagnosed with mouth cancer in 2011. </div>
