Suggest Treatment For Genital Warts And Vaginal Itching
Hello! I was tested hpv positive in July. Went for a checkup at the hospital. They took another sample and they told me to return next Friday. Since then I noticed I had a genital warts and the nurse froze it off for me. Problem is that my vagina started itching this week. It s very uncomfortable. I noticed a lump as well on my right labia. I haven t noticed any discharge and no smell either. I had sex about a week ago and it was a bit rough. Could that be a cause for the itching or is it the hpv causing some discomfort? I am starting to get really worried. I think I have a bit of abdominal pain too. Barely noticeable. Is it something to worry about?

Hello,
* Human papilloma virus is common cause of genital warts and vaginal itching , which may also present with fungal infection of some sort. My guidelines at present
- keep the area clean with antiseptic liquid or soap
- avoid vaginal or anal intercourse at present
- control of blood sugar
- local application of aloe vera gel
- balanced nutritious diet to combat the issue faster
- discuss the need of prophylactic basis fluconazole with your doc during scheduled visit
- may need topical applications as Podophyllin or silver nitrate application ; surgical removal in some cases to cure warts.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
