Emergence pattern: When you have genital warts you may find that several tissue areas will show lesions that emerge on their own time line. The chemical creams applied to kill the emerging warts is not like an antibiotic you take by mouth to kill a bacteria. It just helps kill the warts as they emerge. Other tissues where the virus is already inside the cells will form a wart on its own timeline.
