Anal Wart

Hello, I am a 35 year old male who has some messed up nerve disease that has lead me to physical issues. One of them has been impotence and sexual dysfunction that has led me to being so low on myself that I have seen escorts and other greasy women for sexual encounters feeling that no normal girl would ever want to be with me anyways. Nonetheless, I think I got over that stigma and have seen a psychologist to help me deal with these issues. I got STD tested and came back clean but for some reason I had this wart on my bum near my tailbone. I didn't know anything about these warts prior to this and reading up on this has freaked me out. I don't know where it came from or how it got there but it is really depressing now. I actually met a really nice girl and we get along really really well. But now knowing that I have this wart I have no urge to get close to her at all and almost feel like just throwing her away because I feel unworthy. I had some liquid nitrogen to treat this thing a couple weeks ago but it hasn't really gone away and the mark that I see makes me sick to my stomach when I look at this. I have no idea how this thing may heal or heal at all, I am almost ready to spend as much money as possible to immediately try and remove this wart and try to move on. My whole anal area is sore and irritable since I have had this treatment and even when I'm with my new girl all I can think about is my ass!! I don't know how anything about this and I don't want to wait for this to heal. I am filled with all types of thoughts of running away from everyone and everything. I have no kids and want no kids and my new girl also has no kids and wants no kids. She kinda knows about this because I cried to her about it but unless this thing heals and goes away I am going to have trouble moving on with my life.

Can't you see a dermatologist and get it frozen off? Or scraped off? Maybe im missing something. Hate to see you stress out and think of throwing a nice relationship away over a wart. Besides - if she really cares about you she will likely understand your discomfort and offer you support.

I agree about seeing a dermatologist. They know about every blip and bump and will surely deal with things and put your mind at rest. When you think about it a derm doc is SO interested in such things, they have specialized in them, to the exclusion of all else. You are NOT unworthy and the fact that she has stayed around means she thinks you are worth developing a relationship with. Cheers.

dude it's just a wart. Wart virus goes around when people are at primary school. People get them on the bums, on their noses, on their fingers, on their elbows. They come, they stay for a while - and then one day, they just go. It's a virus everyone gets at some point in their lifetime and it just does its thing. It's benign.

Unless it's four inches square I just wouldn't even think about it. Even at 3 inches your girlfriend can always just draw a smiley face on it and call it albert. Knit it a little hat. it's your little warty pal.

And it's not a genital wart. Genital warts are big swathes of tiny bubbles of warty wartness. Which is gross but STILL not actually dangerous although they have been linked to ovarian cancer in women.

No. Albert is just a wart. And she's not going to immediately demand to inspect your butthole the first time the 2 of you get naked. You'd be surprised how long a guy can hold out on the whole 'give me a full-on view of your butthole' thing.

:D

I think you're stressing where you just don't need to. honestly. Make your peace with your little friend. He's just a wart.

Why don't you have your doctor refer you to a specialist, like the others have said? There are many different ways to remove those so I wouldn't stress out over it. I had them on both hands when I was a kid. My doctor gave me some salve and a shot and they were all gone in a few days. That was over 50 years ago so I am sure they have better treatments today.

So make that appointment asap!

God Bless
