After finding a family of frogs while cutting grass this past weekend, I wondered, do frogs give humans warts?

Over 10 years ago, I was diagnosed with human papillomavirus (HPV).  I have hundreds of tiny warts all over my body but mostly on my legs.  My dermatologist took a biopsy just to make sure.  Sure enough, it's just a bunch of tiny warts.  Over the years they have spread.  I was told the reason they exist is because the body doesn't 'see' them.  Since they sit on the surface of the skin, the body doesn't recognized them as 'foreign' and doesn't attack them.

I was told that high doses of Tagamet, which inhibits stomach acid production, sometimes makes the body recognize (HPV) and attacks warts.  I tried it but it didn't work.

I've had (HPV) for over 10 years now.  They are as high as my chest.  I'm hoping they don't end up on my face.
