Information about Condyloma

[maherz]

Hello Doctor,
I'm seeing a girl since 3 months now. During the second month my girlfriend got food poisoning and all her body was swollen and itchy. After she went out of the hospital, she was not comfortable having sex and she said it hurts. we thought it's because she didn't have an intercourse for awhile. but later on we discovered that there are 2 bumps near the opening of her vagina. small , white, empty it seems there is no liquid inside. she said maybe it's because she was itching everywhere and even her vagina was itchy at that time. she went to see a doctor -we both work abroad in a developing country where medicine is not that good- the doctor said it's Condyloma and he said he have to remove them for her. she got very scared and accepted.
My questions are:

1- The doctor said it's condyloma only by looking at them, no tests, no blood tests, nothing, only by looking at it. Is it possible that it's Condyloma, Also we already visited her skin doctor a week before that, he saw them and said it's nothing. we visited several hospitals and doctors after this there is no sign for any other bumps and doctors said they can't tell if it was condyloma or not since they are removed already.

2- Is it possible for Condyloma to appear as 1 or 2 bumps only ? as i see from Google pictures it's many bumps.

3- Is there any test to conclude if she has condyloma or not ? and what about me too ? what is the percentage that i got it from her?

4- May you please give me information about what should we do together ? should we separate? should we continue our relationship?

5- if we say it's Condyloma and it has been removed, if we have sex again will i have it from her ? or once the bumps removed then it's okay to have sex and i will be fine?

Much appreciated,

Thank you for your answer, I understand that you guys are volunteers and i will take all information here as a reference not as a medical decision. May you please provide me with some answers for my questions if you have an idea about HPV ? if we agree that it was HPV, is it serious ? is it common ? Anything we can do for it now ? also, what about me ? i don't have anything for the moment and the bumps were taken out a month ago. we already visited multiple doctors and she had her vagina checked with no more bumps. may you give me some information also about me and her now. can we continue our relationship or it's better if we stop it ? can we have sex or not ? if we have sex will i get the HPV from her even if there is no bumps or she should have bumps to give the HPV for someone else?

I'm sorry for asking alot of questions but im not able to get any information from the area that i'm living in right now. and if you don't have answers for my questions please if you have any references where i can get answers that would be great.

Much appreciated

We are not doctor here but volunteers. If you want a doctors reply you need to post in the std expert forum and there is a slight fee.

Bottom line is there are 2 types associated with this term. One is HPV warts and the other is associated with secondary syphilis. It is HPV, it is possible for a doctor to examine them and make an expert opinion. If it was this there is no test to determine that. If it was a syphilis lesion then testing is available but a doctor would not remove a lesion so i would rule that out.. From what you describe i would value her skin doctors opinion.

At this point, if it was HPV and were removed you cant contract it. Just keep an eye out in the coming months to see if any others develop.
