What are Genital Warts?

Genital warts is one of the most common type of sexually transmitted disease. They are also known as Veneral warts or condylomata acuminate and can cause pain, discomfort and itching. They are fleshly growths that appear on the genitals or anal area. It consists of fibrous overgrowths covered by a thickened, outer layer.How it is transmitted?

Genital warts and HPV infection are transmitted primarily by sexual intimacy, including oral, vaginal, and anal sex and the risk of infection increases as the number of sexual partner's increases. You may not start to develop warts for several weeks or months after infection. Genital warts affect both women and men, but women are more vulnerable to complications.

Are they dangerous?

They are usually non-cancerous but with time can turn cancerous and dangerous

Researches have proved   that 40%   kind of HPVs   can infect the genital tract and anus (anogenital tract) of men and women. . HPV infection is also associated with the development of other anogenital cancers. The HPV types that cause cervical cancer have been linked with both anal and penile cancer in men as well as a subgroup of head and neck (oropharyngeal) cancers in both women and men.

What do you do if you have been exposed to genital warts (HPV infection)?

If you or your partner is suffering from HPV infection  or appearance of lesions you should not take it lightly and should consult a doctor as there is a risk of its spreading and transmission. Even the absence of lesions does not exclude the possibility of transmission and that condoms are not completely effective in preventing the spread of the infection

The female partners of men with genital warts should get Pap Smears tests done regularly as it reduces the risk of developing cervical cancer. Similarly, men should be informed of the potential risk of anal cancers,
Treatment

At Cosmocare we provide a safe and result oriented treatment for removal of warts. After the consultation, our renowned dermatologist  will decides upon the kind of treatment and therapy to be used  for the wart removal. The duration of the treatment depends on the appearance, location and size of the wart. There are many treatment options for warts, although often warts reappear after treatment, and sometimes multiple types of treatment are necessary. The major kind  of treatment offered at our clinic are:

• Freezing: In this treatment, liquid nitrogen is used to freeze the wart. A blister forms around the wart, and the dead tissue falls off within about a week.
• Medications: Some medications can be applied to the wart to help it forma blister and fall off, such as Cantharidin. Other drugs, such as Bleomycin, are injected into a wart to kill the virus. Aldara is a prescription cream used to treat genital warts.
• Minor Surgery: When other treatments fail, minor surgery may be considered. The wart will be cut away, and then the base of the wart will be destroyed using an electric needle or by deep freezing (cryosurgery).
• Laser Surgery: This procedure uses an intense beam of light (the laser) to burn and destroy wart tissue
