A member asked:

My friend developed 'ganital warts', treatments?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Easy: Here in the US, we can treat them with topical medicines or lasers. The strains of HPV that make the ugly warts aren't the ones that cause cancer. It's an embarrassing problem, and a reason to use condoms (and there are many others), but it's routine to manage.
