Several options: Several are available. The trade names are those in the US and may be different in your country: podofilox (Condylox®), sinecatechins (Veregen®), imiquimod (Zyclara®, Aldara®). Treatments in a doctor's office include freezing, acid treatment (bi- or trichloroacetic acid), podophyllin resin, cautery, surgical removal. See a doctor to confirm the diagnosis and get advice on best Rx for you.

Avoid self-Rx: A guy needs prescription-strength Rx or laser Rx, supervised by a physician with a specialty interest here. There are a variety of good options. A gentleman uses a condom in any case, warts or no.
