I was diagnosed with HPV 5 years ago, had one outbreak, one treatment of freezing, and nothing ever since. All of the pics I have looked at of HPV and herpes look nothing like what I have. It's a hard red bump, didn't itch that bad the first week, but does a little now. My husband only had one outbreak when I did 5 years ago and was treated and it never came back. If HPV goes away for some and not others, could I reinfect my husband?

Understand that HPV is not curable. Some people never get symptoms.

If your husband is already infected you cannot reinfect him, he is already infected. The freezing, from what I have learned so far, is just to get rid of the particular outbreak, not the entire virus.

So, since your husband is already infected, you cannot re-infect him.
