HPV Fun Times

[kissoflife]

Back in June I had several external and internal condyloma's removed and I thought all was good in the world (after two weeks of painful recovery). Well, two months later in August lo and behold I have an external wart again. This one has been growing exponentially as time progresses while my former ones stayed pretty small. I didn't initially notice this one because it grew onto of the remnants of a post-operation hemorrhoid. Since I moved to a new city my new doctor is recommending to excise this one as well which means full anesthesia and an epic hospital bill (even with insurance).

I went online to the CDC's website and it seems that they have no one recommended course of action to take in regards to warts caused by HPV. Does the gallery here think another expensive surgery is the way to go, or am I most likely going to be in the same situation in later months?

Honestly I wouldn't go that far to have such an expensive surgery. I would have it frozen or burnt off. butif you fear the new growth of internal warts then that is something you will have to decide on your own

This one is not internal, it is very much external. And the new doctor was recommendeding the same surgery where he would also do an internal inspection then and take out any new internal ones. Looking back I was too shell shocked to ask him to do a more thorough inspection in the doctors office rather than surgery.

why not just have it frozen off?? is it internal? is your new doctor recommending the same surgery or a different one?
