Warts Specialists FAQ in Valencia, CA

How often do HPV warts recur?

The rate of GW recurrence, defined as the detection of GWs and the same human papillomavirus (HPV) genotype at a site where they were previously detected, was found to be 44.3% after the first GW episode. The number of recurrent episodes could be as high as 10 during the median follow-up of 50.4 months.

Do warts mean you have a weak immune system?

In many cases, your immune system quickly fights off the virus long before outward signs, such as warts develop. If, however, your immune system is slow to recognize or respond to the HPV strain, you’re more likely to develop warts.

Can I have warts but not HPV?

Can you have genital warts without having HPV? No, while not all strains of HPV cause genital warts, all genital warts are caused by some strain of HPV. However, some people mistake moles, skin tags, or other sores for warts. It’s best to have a healthcare provider look at them to know for sure.

Can your immune system get rid of warts?

Warts are almost always harmless for people with a healthy immune system. The body’s immune system often manages to fight the viruses over time, and the warts then disappear on their own.

Are normal warts an STD?

A: No, common warts are not the same as genital warts. Though both types of wart are caused by the HPV group of viruses, the strains that cause each type are different and so are the methods of transmission. Unlike common warts, genital warts are spread through sexual contact, they are an STI/STD.

Is HPV with warts for life?

The warts may go away, stay the same, or grow in size or number. A healthcare provider can usually diagnose genital warts by looking at them. Genital warts can come back, even after treatment. The types of HPV that cause warts do not cause cancer.

Can a wart be cancerous?

Warts are common skin growths. They are not cancer. And they don’t turn into cancer. They are caused by a virus called human papillomavirus (HPV).

Does everyone with warts have HPV?

No. Warts can appear after a person is infected, or you can have none at all, as the body’s immune system fights the virus.

How long does it take a dermatologist to remove a wart?

Wart removal surgery usually takes less than 1-2 weeks for the wart to blister and fall off after surgical removal.

Does it hurt to get a wart surgically removed?

Is wart excision painful? The procedure itself is painless because of the numbing medication, but the site will feel tender for a couple of weeks. You may need pain medications after your session.

How long are HPV warts contagious?

It’s hard to know when people are no longer contagious, because there’s no blood test that looks for HPV. Most of the time, HPV is gone within 2 years of when someone was infected.

What kills warts quick?

Salicylic acid. This is the main ingredient in aspirin, and it should usually be your first choice. Freezing. In this treatment, also called cryotherapy, a clinician swabs or sprays liquid nitrogen onto the wart and a small surrounding area. Duct tape. Other agents. Zapping and cutting.

When should I be worried about a wart?

Warts are usually harmless. In most cases, they go away on their own within months or years. But if they spread or cause pain, or if you don’t like the way they look, you may want to treat them.

Do warts ever stop growing?

Over time, your body will often build up a resistance and fight warts off. But it may take months or as many as 2 years for them to disappear. In adults, warts often stick around even longer, perhaps several years or more. Some warts won’t ever go away.
