Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Iam 42, 178cms in height and weigh 65kgs. I have warts on my genitals and was asked by doctor to apply podo wart solution. After the application the warts die out in about 2-3 days, but again reappears some times at the same places else other places around the tip of pennis. On my second visit the doctor adviced me to apply Tretinoin cram which is less irritation, how ever the wars persists. Can you please advice

Hello, Welcome to HCM,
Human Papillomavirus (HPV) affects only the skin and it will be localized to the wart. Once the wart is cleared by topical application of cream you will become free from infection.
It is transmitted to your partner, if you indulge in unprotected sexual activity during the presence of lesion. Once the wart is cleared by the topical medicines you can have normal sexual activity and you will be non infectious.
5% Imiquade cream should be applied over the wart on alternate days for 4 months. Before application of this cream you need to apply Vaseline over the wart and then you have to apply the imiquade cream.
Mean while you have to boost up your immunity which helps to clear your wart. To boost the immunity you need to take orally capsule Zincolac, daily for 30 days. Thank you.
