Bad wart day

Okay, so I’ve had warts for about a week now and they are horrible! They hurt, itch and burn! Am I the only who’s afraid of peeing? Geez, it’s too much! If I go to the gyno can I get them burnt off? What’s if it’s something more serious? Honestly, how do you guys manage with the pain? I thought I was okay, but I’m not. The thought of having these for months or years to heal... I cannot wrap my mind about it! I’m in a relationship and I don’t like to think how long we’ll have to wait to be intimate again.

Are you sure that you have warts? Have you got it checked by your doctor yet? As I know, genital warts usually cause pain, itching and discomfort while genital herpes is characterized by burning sensations during urination. Genital warts are described as soft skin growth but genital herpes are painful blisters. To make sure, I think you should get it checked immediately. To ease the pain, some home remedies like green tea, apple cider vinegar, baking soda and castor oil may help you. Moreover, you can also apply topical anti-viral creams for quick relief. Good luck!

Not all Avc burn the skin. You should find the product made of natural ingredients approved by FDA. You can research online or ask your doctor or a pharmacist for help.

I’ve had several tests done with my gynecologist and he says it’s HPV and genital warts. I asked if it was herpes because I was comparing the symptoms, but he said no.

With genital warts, patience is key. It can take a while for them to go away, but they will eventually stop recurring. Change your diet to a good one, take vitamin B, C, E, exercise regularly, lower your stress and you can try applying a topical cream called Vidarox to stop the warts and inactivate the virus HPV. My friend has had genital warts for years and I gave this cream to her. She applied it 3 times a day and after 4 days her warts completely subsided. She said that this cream didn't burn her skin as other creams that she had used. Now it's been a year and she saw no wart return. So, just keep getting your genital warts treated and stay healthy. Best wishes for you!

Thank you guys for all of your replies. I went back to the doctor and what I had done wrong was that I put the Aldara cream all over and not just on the warts. Since this cream is supposed to “burn off” the warts it burned my healthy skin too, which lead to the severe pain in urination. The doctor stopped the treatment and I feel much better. I am feeling the itching from the GW again, but I’m going soon again for another check up.
