Question 1

what is the quickest and painless way to move a wart?

Accepted Answer

Several options: There are several options to treat common warts.  You can try over the counter compound w type products. Some studies even have shown placing a small piece of duct tape over a wart for a few weeks will work. A dermatologist might use liquid nitrogen, acid or another compound to treat warts as well as surgically trimming the wart down. If a wart is larger or persists a physicians help is needed.

Question 2

there any good, fast, painless wart removers out there?

Accepted Answer

Salicylic Acid: Removing a wart with an over-the-counter salicylic acid liquid may be performed by cleaning the area, applying the acid, and removing the dead skin with an emery board.  Depending upon the location, it may take up to a year to remove a wart.

Question 3

should i treat a plantar wart that does not hurt?

Accepted Answer

You should: Try any of the over the counter treatments for the wart. Left untreated, it may grow and become painful.
For good health - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Drink enough water daily, so that your urine is mostly colorless. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form. 
Practice safe sex.

Question 4

i have a really small bump on my anus. it is pink in colour and does not hurt, it hasn't changed in size or colour at all. could this be a wart?

Accepted Answer

Could be: It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without additional history, physical examination and may be some tests. A wart is a likely finding. If  your are sexually active it would make that more likely. It would be prudent to see your doctor.
Get HPV vaccine.
Wish you good health!

Question 5

i have this white hard wart under my tongue it does not hurt and every time i pop it grows back in 2-3 days its scaring me what can it be? help please

Accepted Answer

Wart under tongue: What you are describing does not sound like a wart. Warts can occur in the mouth and under the tongue but they are not usually hard and cannot usually be popped. I recommend you see a dermatologist or your doctor to better evaluate this lesion. You might need a biopsy to identify this lesion.

Question 6

how important is it to get warts removed? i have aquarter size wart on my foot no pain.

Accepted Answer

Not that important: Plantar warts are not dangerous and removal is not important unless causing you pain with walking etc..They do get harder to remove as they get larger, but otherwise it is not a dangerous thing to have on your foot.
U can try some otc product such compound-w etc...
If so desire, consult doc for office removal or prescription medicine. Good luck.

Question 7

i have 2 small round, raised bumps on my penis shaft. they are painless and brown in colour and don't look like warts or fordyce spots?

Accepted Answer

Cannot diagnose: Without the ability to examine these after obtaining a full history, it would be foolish to try and predict what these might be.  See your doctor or perhaps a dermatologist.

Question 8

i have what appears to be a wart/unusual lump on the head of my penis that doesn't seem to be going away. it is painless (mostly) and cauliflower like. what should i do? and is it common amongst men?

Accepted Answer

See dermatologist: sounds like a wart, that we call condyloma accuminata. would see dermatologist for dx and tx.

Question 9

hey! i'm a 22 year old white male and recently i've discovered these small white bumps on my penis shaft. they're painless and look like skin tags. they seemed to form after i had some warts removed from my elbow, which leads me to believe that it may be

Accepted Answer

Probably normal: Every male has &quot;small white bumps&quot; on the penile skin, normal sebaceous glands and hair follicles. If you are sure this is new and/or abnormal, see your doctor or a dermatologist. In the meantime, this description doesn&#x27;t sound at all like genital warts. And common skin warts don&#x27;t get transmitted to the genital area, so that&#x27;s really not something to be concerned about. Best wishes.

Question 10

hi, had raised bump on penis, no pain look like wart. develop more the last few days and develop warts on hands. what could this be?

Accepted Answer

Skin lesions: These could be possibly warts. Recommend to see your PCP or dermatologist to evaluate for other possible causes and to get treated for warts if that's what you have.
