this is the second time I've posted questions, please help

[Richard562]

it definitely looks like a raspberry

It started as a raised looking wart, I used compound W and it took care of it, it came back and I used compound W again.  For whatever reason that one wart is now what looks like to be three close warts.  I've applied Compound W again in hopes that it will take care of it.

First of all, not sure this wart on my penis is serious or is it?

Will it get worse?

does it ever go away all together?

I don't have medical, what do I do?

IMHO.

It is a genital wart caused by HPV.  It is contagious.  If you put vinegar on it, and it turns white, BINGO, it's a wart.  

Depending on it's location, you can try the Compound W Freeze Away wart treatment.  It will freeze it similar to the treatment done at a doctor's office.  

Also, apple cider vinegar (this is not the same as normal vinegar) can be applied liberally to a small absorbent pad and then place that over the area.  The acidity of the apple cider vinegar will "kill" the wart.  It should turn black and slough off after a couple of days of treatment.

what does IMHO mean?

Will it get worse?

does it ever go away all together?

I can't answer the other questions, but I do know that IMHO means "In my humble opinion"

Firstly...Id just like to say, the viniger test has been found to be inacurrate, as it tends to highlight any lump or bump that may or may not be warts!

Secondly if they are warts, GO and get the,m treated by a MEDICAL PROFFESIONAL who knows what they are doing and ask them questions as theyll know what theyr talking about. The sooner you get it treated the sooner the warts WILL go away and potentially stay away. If left untreated, its possible and likely they will get bigger and or spread, treating better helps your body to fight the virus into remission/possibly  clearance.

Even medical specialists/medical researches dont know wether the virus leaves the body completely or wether it just lies dormont at an undetectable level. Which ever, USUALLY (90%) ppl "clear" the virus within 2yrs (of not having any symptoms) and are safe to have sex and dont have and likely never have any again! With this said there are ppl who have them reoccur thru their life, but this is unusual, sometimes they do occur again if a person is VERY ill (ie:cancer, or wen woman are pregnant) but rule of thumb is "the longer theyr gone, the less likely they are to cum back"!

Hope this helps and good luck!

I've been clear of warts for 3 years now.  I thought I was done with them.  How I got it, I have no idea.  I have my suspicions and have called out 2 girls but both have denied anything.  I've been having protected sex with my current girlfriend and have told her about my past occurence with genital warts and even brought her to see my doctor to consult her and we both advised her to get the gardasil vaccine.  Unfortuneately, she has just been diagnosed with genital warts and her paps came back abnormal.  I guess it was too late.  Maybe there was some forplay friction prior to protected sex...I don't know.  I feel horrible.  I thought I tried to do everything I could do to protect her from me.  But HPV continues to haunt me and this recent event has put me back into free fall worrying again.  I realize that it is supposed to be common, but I can't deal with going through these feelings again.  The treatment is painful enough.  The lifetime of telling new sexual partners is equally as bad.  Thinking of who the hell gave this to me also makes me angry/depressed.  I feel horrible.  I never meant to hurt anyone and feel very trapped in any kind of sexual relationship I have.  Any comments welcome.

I do feel for you... I realy do. But Every person out there wants to blame some one. The only one to blame is ones self. You have to know I started really young. I was 13 and had sex way more then I should and non of which was protected 100% of the time. But now I am sure I have HPV and my doc seems to think they are skin tags,. I dont want to take any more time so I begged and he finally just gave me the aldara drug. My wife is supportive but does not want to have sex. LOL i think it is kind of funny. She thinks she does not have it even if I do. I really hope she doesnt but it is proven after one sexual incounter you have a 60% chance to get the virus. It is very scary when some one says STD! Just remember one thing........ ALMOST EVERYONE HAS IT!!! 80% of everyone in the world will get this some time in there life. Anyone that make you feel as if you are dirty or a ****. Well just think of it like this. There Mom most likely has it! hhahaha Just do not give up and do not get embarrassed!!!! It is more common to have this now then to have a damn job. There are bigger problems out there then a small spot on your peepee ! hoped I helped a little bit.

I think that last post was meant for boby618.
All of the above is true!!! AND...its possible she got this before you! i have been clear for 2,5yrs and my BF of 6months is fine! He knows about it, it doesnt bother him, he has chosen to not use protection, knowing the risk!!!
It was probably the hardest thing Iv had to do, telling him about my past with warts, but he could not be more supportive and careless!
To be honest, this has helped me realise how minor this really is and how irrelivant it all is in the bigger picture, if there truely is love there.
Even tho I was devistated when this happened to me (and im a prude-apparently!), I couldnt be happier now!
Good luck
