Brief Answer:
Imiquimod and pophyllin
Detailed Answer:
I commonly prescribe Imiquimod (Aldara, Zyclara) or Podophyllin and podofilox (Condylox) to my clients for removal of warts. I will advice that you try as much as possible to prevent this product from irritating the surrounding skin. It would be best if some other person could help you to apply this drug to guarantee precision on exactly the warts.
I hope this helps and addresses your query fully. Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be and I will gladly respond to.
What is the possible origin of these warts? Is your sexual partner healthy or contaminated as well?
