How to remove genital warts?
in Health ·
I was diagnosed with anal condylomas about a month and a half ago... maybe closer to two months now.
First, my dermatologist applied this chemical treatment; I had to see her every seven days for about a month before moving on to cryotherapy. Toward the end, it started stinging pretty badly because she was trying to clear them out thoroughly.
Right now, they’ve all cleared up on the surface, but there’s still one inside the anal canal, which is a bit of a headache since she can't really reach it there. She referred me to a surgeon for an anoscopy, but the local hospital doesn't even have the equipment on hand—it hasn't been used there in ages—so I'm currently stuck figuring out where to go for the exam. The surgeon did mention they'd use cauterization under anesthesia, though. I’m just hoping it’s limited to that one internal spot and hasn't spread deeper. So far, I don't have any scarring from the chemicals...
They first showed up around July, though it's hard to pin down the exact moment...
By October, almost everything was gone—basically cured. So, it's not exactly the end of the world.
So, that's my experience. 🙂
Hey everyone. Just a word of advice: don't try to DIY this. It is much easier when you have professionals handling it. Even though I live in a small town, everyone was incredibly helpful and, more importantly, they actually respected my privacy.
