    Typically by the external signs or blood. Obviously you can't see the virus, but external warts caused by HPV are VERY visible. If they look anything like these http://picturesofgenitalwarts.org/genital-warts-pictures/then you know you need to do something about it.

    The diagnosis is usually made by examining scrapings from the warts under a darkfield microscope. If the warts are caused by HPV, they will turn white when a 5% solution of white vinegar is added. If the warts reappear, the doctor may order a biopsy to rule out cancer.
