Hi,
You are never really cleared of HPV virus, as it is a virus which lies dormant in your body for the rest of your life. Once infected, you are infected - even though you may not show any signs of infections. In short: No, the cold and joint pain is not indicative of recurring (or chronic) HPV.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
