You are not alone; HPV (human papillomavirus) is the cause of genital warts and is one of the most commonly transmitted STDs in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada and worldwide. Although there are hundreds of HPV strains, only about a dozen lead to genital warts and cancer. Most people will encounter some strain of HPV throughout their lifetime without developing symptoms and go on infecting others, unaware they are contagious.

HPV is responsible for most cases of anal and cervical cancer worldwide. However, it may lead to other cancers such as cancers of the throat, mouth, vagina and penis. Genital warts are small fleshy skin growths that can appear in and on the vagina, vulva, inside the cervix, penis, scrotum and in and around the anus. If left untreated genital warts can spread over a larger area, get irritated, bleed and cause discomfort. In some cases, they can grow large enough to abstract the birth canal and interfere with vaginal birth.

Genital wart treatments and removal options available in Hamilton:

Genital warts can be a rather sensitive topic, and you might not want anyone to know you have contracted an STI; however, trying to remove genital warts on your own can cause further damage to the delicate skin in the genital area as well as bleeding, scarring, pain and may lead to an infection.

Choosing to have your genital warts removed by an experienced doctor at our clinic in Hamilton will help ensure the procedure is performed correctly and with the proper sterile tools and help avoid severe pain, prolonged recovery and scarring.

Once you arrive for your free no-obligation consultation, one of our healthcare professionals will perform a physical examination and discuss all the treatment options best suited to your unique situation. You will be able to make an informed decision that best suits you and your budget.

Here are some genital wart removal techniques the doctor may discuss with you:

1. Cryotherapy - Using liquid nitrogen, the doctor will freeze warts allowing them to fall off independently.
2. Surgical excision - the doctor will cut off warts using surgical scissors or a knife (scalpel); this may require some downtime.
3. Laser removal - using a medical-grade targeted laser, the doctor will burn off warts quickly; this method provides immediate results and requires minimal recovery.

In most cases, no recovery time is needed after our procedures; unless otherwise instructed by the doctor, you may return to your normal daily activities the following day. There might be some discomfort in the first few days; however, if you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to bring them up with the doctor; they will be happy to answer all of your questions and put your mind at ease.

What are you still waiting for? Your healthy, beautiful skin awaits.
