HPV Positive. What Should My Concern Be?

My doctor just informed me that I tested positive for HPV, I had not had a partner for 2and 1/2 years and then fell in love again, I thought he had been monogomus, he had been married for 38 years and had lost his wife 1 and 1/2 years ago. We have been intimate for about the last six months, what do I have to worry about and should he be tested and can this effect him? Should I tell him what my doctor found? She said I could be tested again in 1 year but that seems like such a long time to worry?
