How do guys get rid of genital warts? what over-the-counter creams do they use?

just curious that's all...How do guys get rid of genital warts? what over-the-counter creams do they use?
Genital warts (or condyloma, or condylomata acuminata) is a highly contagious sexually transmitted infection. Caused by some variants of the Human papillomavirus, typically HPV 6 and HPV 11, it is spread during oral, genital, or anal sex with an infected partner.





Genital warts often disappear even without treatment. In other cases, they eventually may develop a fleshy, small raised growth. There is no way to predict whether the warts will grow or disappear. Therefore, if you suspect you have genital warts, you should be examined and treated, if necessary.





Depending on factors such as the size and location of the genital warts, a doctor will offer you one of several ways to treat them.





Imiquimod, (Aldara庐) a topical immune response cream which you can apply to the affected area


A 20% podophyllin anti-mitotic solution, which you can apply to the affected area and later wash off


A 0.5% podofilox solution, applied to the affected area but shouldn鈥檛 be washed off


A 5% 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) cream


Trichloroacetic acid (TCA)


Pulsed dye laser


Liquid nitrogen cryosurgery





Although treatments can get rid of the warts, they do not get rid of the HPV virus, so warts can recur after treatment. The body's immune system typically clears the virus anywhere from 6 months to two years, but it occasionally remains in the body for a lifetime.[1] The state of the immune system determines the chances of ridding the virus entirely, and can be affected by factors such as HIV infection, certain medications, stress, or illness.[2] There is even some suggestion that effective treatment of the wart may aid the body's immune response.How do guys get rid of genital warts? what over-the-counter creams do they use?
