need some help here pleaseee

Ok so ive already went and had warts removed twice and bout to go for a third time its getting better...hopefully this will be my last time. There is 5 to 6 littler red dots that show up around the rim of my penis head when erect but aren't visible when it's not could they be warts? my dermatologist said it was just part of my penis and didnt really even look but he couldnt have seen them even if he did. Anyway Ive read on the expert forum that having a low immune system doesn't really effect genital warts im not saying i have a low immune system bc I am in extreme physical shape at 19 years old, i work out hard 3-5 times a week and run at least a mile a day to 3, im just saying i tend to drink alot on the weekend could that effect the warts reappearing? Ive also read where the body usually gets rid of the virus or at least suppresses it completely within 2 years is that true and how common is genital warts? how common is it for a person to have hpv 6 or 11 strain but never show signs? and one last question will it effect me going into the military? My goal is to become a navy seal and i plan on doing it. I have been extremely depressed bout this for the last couple days I feel all alone and pissed at myself for letting this happen i had no idea the girl had anything wrong with her which pisses me off why wouldnt you tell somebody about that? theres no way i could knowingly give somebody an std It's hard for me to even think about sex anymore sometimes i think i may need to go to a psychologist bc it bothers me so bad its all i think about 24/7. I would just like some info on all this please answer me it would be greatly appreciated thank you.

Are you sure you have genital warts? You said your dermatologist told you there was nothing wrong with you. Did you get a second opinion? Genital warts are extremely common but they are treatable, I'm sure there's no reason to panic. I had warts a few years ago and in my case, a herpes cream called ZOVIRAX was very effective. My warts were permanently gone in a few days. I'm not a doctor and I'm not sure if ZOVIRAX will work for everyone but it doesn't hurt to try.

hey jack,

Don't let it get to you man, whats done is done. Did your dermatologist ever tell you that you can clear the virus in time? Its possible, so just keep getting the warts treated so they won't spread. Also, the immune system is said to play a huge part in suppressing/clearing the virus. Don't drink because that lowers your immune system, don't smoke. Keep up with being healthy and take daily vitamins.

  Im not gonna let this thing control my life, its just a cosmetic problem which can resolve itself with time. Just stay healthy and in the near future all of this will all just be a minor inconvenience.

Just breath and do whatever it takes to make your immune system fight this thing, drinking is not gonna help.
