How do I treat a wart near my genital area?

Doctor's Answer

For the treatment of genital warts, there are a few options. Liquid nitrogen is commonly use to freeze and destroy the wart. A few sessions spaced every one to 2 weeks may be required.

Ablating the viral wart with laser or electrosurgery is another option. Topical creams like imiquimod and wartec can be used but these are prescriptive medications.

You can visit your dermatologist for treatment of the warts. Some GPs may treat it too. For subsidized treatment, you can go the the DSC clinic in Kelatan lane.
