So let us now introduce what women should do if they have genital warts.

1. Surgical treatment

Single, small warts can be removed surgically; giant warts can be removed using Mohs surgery, with frozen sections used to check whether the lesions have been removed cleanly.

2. Cryotherapy

Using liquid nitrogen at a low temperature of ~196℃, the freezing method is used to treat genital warts, which promotes the necrosis and shedding of wart tissue. This method is suitable for warts with a small number and small area. It can be treated 1 to 2 times with an interval of one week.

3. Laser treatment

Genital warts are usually treated with a CO2 laser and ablative therapy. This treatment is most suitable for warts on the vulva, penis, or perianal area. Single or a small number of multiple warts can be treated once, while multiple or large warts can be treated 2 to 3 times, with an interval of one week between treatments.

5. Drug therapy

(1) Podophyllum resin This treatment is suitable for warts in moist areas, such as warts on the glans penis and perineum caused by excessive foreskin but without circumcision. However, podophyllum resin cannot be used to treat cervical condyloma acuminatum. Apply 20% podophyllum resin tincture to the lesions or before using the medicine, first use oily antibacterial ointment to protect the normal skin or mucous membrane around the lesions, and then apply the medicine. 4 to 6 hours after use, wash with 30% boric acid water or soap water. Repeat the medication after 3 days if necessary. This drug is the first choice for the treatment of this disease abroad, and it can usually be cured with one use. However, it has many disadvantages, such as being highly destructive to tissues and causing local ulcers if used improperly. It is highly toxic, with the main symptoms being nausea, intestinal obstruction, leukopenia and thrombocytopenia, tachycardia, urinary retention or oliguria. Therefore, it must be used with caution. If the above reactions are found, the drug should be discontinued immediately.
