Genital warts
Genital warts (sometimes called condylomata acuminata or venereal warts) are the most easily recognized sign of genital HPV infection. Many people, however, have a genital HPV infection without genital warts. Genital warts are soft, moist, or flesh colored and appear in the genital area within w
eeks or months after infection. They sometimes appear in clusters that resemble cauliflower-like bumps, and are either raised or flat, small or large. Genital warts can show up in women on the vulva and cervix, and inside and surrounding the vagina and anus. In men, genital warts can appear on the s
crotum or penis. There are cases where genital warts have been found on the thigh and groin. http://www.dermatologistsnyc.com Types of Warts: Verruca Vulgaris (the common wart) These are thickened bumps called papules or plaques. They have a rough surface and frequently will have small tiny spots wh
ich are from blood vessels that have clotted. They are most commonly seen on the hands, elbows and knees. Flat Warts se are flat-topped, smoother looking warts. They are brown or skin coloured. They are most commonly seen on the face of women. They are spread easily by shaving. Plantar Warts are see
n on the under-surface of the feet. They are thickened. They can be confused with corns or calluses. Occasionally they can be quite widespread involving large surfaces. They tend to grow into the skin rather than coming outwards as most other warts.Genital Warts appear in the genital peri-anal skin.

y have a small chance of becoming cancerous. Some of the genital warts have been associated with carcinoma of the cervix, Bowenoid papulosis and Bowen's disease.Warts are usually obvious to the experienced doctor.

cific tests to type the human papilloma virus although these are not done routinely. NYC Dermatology Board Certified Dermatologist NY Dermatology takes care of all these condtions. http://hpvnyc.org
