Suggest Treatment For Warts On The Penis
Hello Doctor, I ve a wart on the left side,just above my penis since 1990. Over the years it has grown slightly & as of lately the skin at the base of my penis,below the groin area & the skin in between my genitals are itchy. Why the sudden activation after all these years. I ve only seen the doctor once & the medicine didn t help but that was at the height of this wart. So what should I do now please?

Hello,
A topical cream can remove most genital warts.
Trichloroacetic or bichloroacetic acid to treat warts.
You'll apply a small amount to warts once a week and allow it to dry.
It works best on small, moist warts and can be used on penile warts.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
