How To Get Rid Of Genital Warts That Are Not Responding To Cryotherapy?
Question: Hi. I have genital warts and have done for around 3 months. I've had 6 rounds of cryotherapy and just finished my 6th round of warticon and still I have warts, old and new ones. Please help?
Thank you
Thank you
Brief Answer:
Continue treatment with warticon
Detailed Answer:
Thank you for contacting HCM with your health care concerns
You have been troubled by genital warts for 3 months and despite cryotherapy and warticon your warts are still present. There is very little else that can be done. Some offices do offer laser therapy which maybe your next best choice. I recommend you discuss this option with your doctor and if needed get a referral to a doctor that performs laser therapy.
If that is not an option then I recommend you continue with the warticon.
in addition to the treatments it is necessary that your over all health improve. One of the reasons your warts continue to grow could be that your own immunity is low. With a lower immunity your body is unable to fight the viral infection and allows it to continue to grow unabated. To booster your immunity you need plenty of rest and I mean 8-10 hours of sleep if that is feasible. Also a good nutritious diet without fast food. And avoid smoking and alcohol or other drugs that may reduce your immunity.
In summary
1. Try Laser therapy
2. Continue warticon
3. Improve immunity
4. Sleep and rest
5. Eat good nutritious diet
6. Avoid alcohol and cigarettes
I hope this answers our question. If you have any further questions or comments please contact me again at HCM
