Has STD. Genital Warts, Scabs, Crater, Whitish Sticky Film. Used Apple Cider Vinegar And Neosporin. What Can Treat It?

To be fair... I only just now realized this was a paid site. Please forgive my ignorance. After discovering my wife had an affair with her loser high school boyfriend, leaning she gave us both an STD and dealing with the catastrophic fallout you can probably... I'm quite desperate! Unfortunately the credit cards maxed out so I've no way to reimburse you for your services however if you're feeling giving, I will resubmit my question in hopes you'll lend me you're expertise for a moment.


I used apple cidar vinegar to treat two genital warts. After about a week it turned black, scabbed up and fell off. Now I have a crater/ant hill looking wound that may or may not be a chemical burn? I actually have two of them on my shaft about the size of bee-bee. They are a little raised and hollowed out in the center. The center Looks like it has a white-ish sticky film on top of what may be a scab? Also, it's surrounded by a light pinkish tone circle that makes up the crater. For about 3 days now I've been bathing two to three times a day and keeping it covered in Neosporin. I put fresh aloe plant on it a couple times too. It's not really getting worse, maybe a little better or at least not as bright? If it is improving though, it's VERY slow!

So thats it... am I doing what I should be doing? Any ideas would be very much appreciated?

Thanks!

Hi,
Welcome and thanks for posting your query to HCM.
I can get from your query that you suffered form genital warts. These warts you tried to burn with Cidar Vinegar. Now presently you have raw surfaces left after fall of warts.
Its a good thing that you are maintaining good hygiene and applying a antibiotic cream over the same. You have not mentioned since how long the raw surface or we should say frankly "ulcers" are present over the area. At this time you can keep maintaining good hygiene and do not try to pinch, squeeze or pull the scab over the raw surface.
Generally it takes 7-14 days for complete healing. If it is more than that then that, or any time you feel pain or any pus coming out of this area then it is better to consult a dermatologist or your family physician or at-least to take oral antibiotic under medical guidance.
Hope this information helps.
