Best Genital Wart Removal Treatment Available

Genital warts are caused by certain strains of the HPV ( human papillomavirus) and are the most commonly diagnosed sexually transmitted infection. Most people infected with the virus do not display any symptoms; however, they are still contagious and can go about spreading HPV unintentionally. The best way to avoid contracting genital warts is by protecting yourself with the Gardasil vaccine and using barrier protection during intercourse, such as condoms.

HPV may also lead to certain types of cancer and is believed to be responsible for most cervical and anal cancer cases in North America and cause other cancers such as throat, vaginal and penile cancer.

If you suffer from genital or anal warts, do not try to remove them on your own, this may lead to bleeding, pain, scarring, and infection and may cause warts to spread further to other parts of the body.

Genital warts may appear anywhere in and around the genital area, including the vagina, penis, scrotum, anus, vulva and thighs.

When it comes to removing genital warts, it's a relatively simple procedure; nonetheless, it should be performed by a trained medical doctor to avoid infection and scarring and ensure the best outcome.

There are several wart removal methods; here are some of the most common procedures performed:

• Cryotherapy - using liquid nitrogen, the doctor will freeze off warts until they fall off on their own.
• Electrocautery - using electrical current, the warts are burnt off.
• Laser Removal - one of the latest methods uses a light beam to remove warts.
• Surgical excision is typically reserved for more prominent warts or ones in hard-to-reach places; the doctor will carefully cut warts off using surgical tools.
• Over-the-counter kits - these are tailored for warts found on hands and feet and are not recommended for use on the sensitive skin in the genital area, not to mention, in most cases, they fail to remove warts altogether.
