Cure for genital warts?


Question


Cure for genital warts?
Hi everybody.


Answer


There is no cure for genital warts, as the virus cannot be destroyed once it enters the body. The warts themselves may be burned off with electrocautery or lasers frozen with liquid nitrogen for easy removal or surgically removed. Podophyllum resin, trichloroacetic acid, interferon inducers, fluorouracil cream, bichloroacetic acid, or trichloroacetic acid can be used as a topical treatment. These medications require several weeks of treatment and may irritate the skin. Pregnant women should be sure to inform their health care provider of this condition, as some of the medications for warts may cause fetal abnormalities. Genital warts can also be treated with injections of interferon, either into muscle tissue or directly into the lesions.brbrUnfortunately, regardless of the treatment regime, genital warts have a high rate of recurrence. Several courses of treatment may be required. Sexual partners should be diagnosed and treated as well. Because of the connection between certain strains of HPV and cervical cancer, infected women should also have yearly pap smears.brbrUNDER THE ABOVE CONDITIONS I SUGGEST YOU TO CONSIDER HAVING SURGERY TO REMOVE THE WARTS, WHICH APPEARS ONE DEFINTE WAY FOR YOU. PLEASE CONSULT YOUR DOCTOR. br
