Genital warts can be passed on from skin-to-skin contact during vaginal, anal or oral sex. The symptoms are the warts themselves – they may look like warts you get on your fingers or hands, or they may look flat and hard. They can spread and get bigger. So if you think you might have warts, it’s a good idea to get them treated as soon as you can.
Treatment comes in the form of creams, liquids or, depending on their size, freezing them or even surgery. Genital warts can be treated successfully but, because they’re caused by a virus, symptoms can appear again when you’re run down or ill.
