Generally, genital warts don’t cause any symptoms, but they might be painful, itchy, and unsightly. Luckily, there are a number of treatments that can help. For external warts, these treatments include:
Creams, gels, and ointments:-
Cryotherapy (freezing off the warts)
Surgery
Acid solutions
Creams, Gels, and Ointments
Options for gels, creams, and ointments are imiquimod cream, podofilox gel, and sinecatechins ointment.
Imiquimod is a cream you apply yourself to boost your immune system. You apply imiquimod 5% cream at bedtime, 3 times a week for 16 weeks. You apply imiquimod 3.75% cream every night. With either strength, you should wash the treated area with soap and water 6 to 10 hours after you put it on. You should also avoid sex while imiquimod is on your skin because it can weaken condoms and diaphragms.
Podofilox and podophyllin resin are gels designed to kill the warts. After they are applied to the wart, the area needs to air dry before coming in contact with clothing. Podofilox isn’t recommended for warts on the cervix, vagina, or anal canal. It’s also not meant for larger areas. If you use too much or don’t let it air dry, you could spread the gel to other areas and develop side effects. Because of thiss risk, the CDC no longer recommends this treatment.
