Doctor:
I am a healthy 23 year old straight man, sexually active, polygamous and have had unprotected sex until these anal warts were discovered. Nowadays I’m inactive. I have also done the other STD tests (HIV/Syphilis/Hepatitis) and I give a negative as a result for which I’m happy.
Thinking that I had hemorrhoids, I went to the proctologist hoping to confirm my hypothesis and I discovered not only that they weren’t hemorrhoids, but that I also had a fecal incontinence –stained the underwear. He directed me to a dermatologist to check on the problem in the anal area. He also said that whatever it was, it was also inside my anus.
They were anal warts. The dermatologist told me to apply Wartec cream once every day until it was gone; possibly after some weeks or even months. I’m still applying the cream after two weeks of treatment and some breaks because of the irritation it provides.
My father, back home, went to his doctor, an immunologist, and commented the problem. He right away suggested & prescribed me taking some pills which I would start taking in some days when they arrive. The pills: Isoprinosine, every 4hrs for 7days. Plus Cell Protector and also vitamin C supplements even after the 7days. He’s very sure they will work.
1. ¿Would you suggest the pill treatment alone, together with the Wartec treatment or not at all?
2. The fecal incontinence problem stated above started being very evident at the same time as the warts started being very irritating. Is it possible that they link as one -warts- being the cause of the other -incontinency-? Or they link at all? Proctologist said it was very rare for me to have that problem being 23 only.
3. Once the warts are gone completely around the outside of my anal area, am I likely to transmit the virus to somebody I have safe sex with –even if she doesn’t physically touch the warts? Or should I wait 6 months/1 year to be almost sure of not transmitting?
Thanks for your time.
