I'm really concerned because my HSV IgG test came back positive with a range of 24. It's been about a year since I got this virus, and I'm really scared since I've read that there's no cure for herpes. Thankfully, I haven't had any symptoms like pain, swelling, itching, or ulcers on my penis. Next year, I'm getting married, and I'm terrified of infecting my partner. Is there any way to manage or treat this so it doesnt affect my future spouse?

I've got these warts on my face and they're starting to get bigger every day. I had a dermatologist remove one before, but it ended up costing me around six thousand. Is that a normal price for this kind of procedure, or is it a bit steep? Also, what can I do to prevent new ones from appearing in the future?
