Question 1

washed hands and noticed pain on index finger tip. tiny red dot, not bleeding, no other abnormality. no needle stick that im aware of. can a wart or spider bite present this way? occurred after waking up. didnt hurt yesterday?

Accepted Answer

: Probably minor injury you didn't notice at the time, which of course happens all the time to all humans. Certainly not a wart or likely site for an insect or spider bite. Probably nothing is wrong that matters and it will clear up in a day or two. Nothing to worry about!

Question 2

i was born with maybe a wart or extra layer of skin same color as me im white, but im curious to see what it is, no itchiness or redness, just been there since i was born?

Accepted Answer

: Obtain an appointment with a dermatologist physician for an exam, who may biopsy the lesion if necessary.  Lesions as described are generally not malignant.

Question 3

i have warts. in a suspect situation,  wanted to use bleach on toilet seat before my friend sit there, but  had to wash immediately(in 1 minutes), didn't wait 5-10 minutes. is that enough for kill hpv? can  infect her? she devolop redness on butt?

Accepted Answer

About toilets...: We don't worry about HPV anogenital wart viruses getting transmitted by bathroom fixtures. College-aged persons should already be vaccinated, right? HPV Gardasil-9 vaccine is approved for both men and women, and gives women and men protection against genital and anal warts, and perhaps some anal cancers. Proper cleaning of toilets is good, but one should be careful with chemicals.

Question 4

i have lots of redness in pubic hair area. seems to be near or on hair follicles. im wandering if its folliculitis or warts?

Accepted Answer

Not warts: Almost certainly folliculitis. Warts don't cause redness, are not common in the pubic area, and do not appear in association with hair follicles.

Question 5

genital warts cauterization does redness ever go away?

Accepted Answer

Yes: But it may take 2-3 months.

Question 6

slight burning in piss slit after ejaculation, is this a std? no redness or discharge or warts

Accepted Answer

Fluids: Common, plenty of fluid intake can help.

Question 7

huge painful yello wart on my finger 1 cm in diam. no pus/redness. using duct tape & acv. its lifting/turning white. should i continue? or see doctor?

Accepted Answer

Would see doctor: See dermatologist to make suee that is is just a wart and that you are not doing harm with your home remedy.

Question 8

what do most genital warts look like and to they usually have a hair follicle involved with redness? is their a standard for what a wart resembles or just kind of whatever they feel like?

Accepted Answer

Probably not a wart: Warts have quite variable appearance, but never involve hair follicles and never cause redness. Google something like "genital wart images" -- you can find lots of photos.

Question 9

i had a wart on the ball of my foot frozen 8 days ago and the blister is still really big and there is redness around it. should i call my doctor?

Accepted Answer

Yes: You may need some extra meds to help the inflamed  area, best wishes

Question 10

do gential warts turn dark red over time? or darker brown?

Accepted Answer

: No, probably not. This must be your 25th question (or more) on your possible warts -- which as discussed, probably are not warts at all. Please stop asking about your genital bumps. See a dermatologist and accept her diagnosis and perhaps treatment advice.
