HPV (Human Papillomavirus) is a common sexually transmitted infection.

Treatment for genital warts caused by HPV:

Topical treatments: Imiquimod cream, Podofilox solution, or Sinecatechins ointment

Cryotherapy: Freezing the warts with liquid nitrogen

Surgical removal: Excision or laser treatment

Antiviral medications: Interferon or Cidofovir (in severe cases)

Consult a dermatologist or a urologistgynecologist for proper evaluation and treatment.

Note: HPV itself cannot be "cured," but the symptoms (genital warts) can be treated.

I went to a general surgeon for constipation and noticed a small flesh near my anus. After a proctoscopy, she said I have grade 1 piles inside and a fissure outside. She suggested laser surgery for both as a permanent solution but I'm unsure if it's necessary since grade 1 piles can often be treated without surgery. Is laser surgery risky or should I consider other options first?
