Brief Answer:
This will pass

Detailed Answer:
Hi and welcome.
condyline is known to be irritative for warts but also for healthy surrounding skin. so this is not unusual that such skin patches occur. it may take several weeks after treatment to disappear. you should just keep area clean and dry,use neutral hydration soap and avoid steroid creams. Wish you good health.
