Is genital warts curable?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Genital warts can be treated, but they can't be cured. You're removing the warts, but you'll still have the virus that causes them. The virus may go away at some point on its own, but there's no way to know for sure. Some people will get warts again and others won't.

View allI've been dealing with a bit of a situation and could really use some advice. I had this small pimple on my forehead, and I ended up popping it early. I cleaned it up, but there was a bit of bleeding. I used some undiluted Dettol on a cotton swab to clean it, but that just made it worse and caused some irritation and a burn. I've tried soothing it with aloe vera gel, but now there's this dark circle, and it's been a few days. Any ideas on what medicine could help clear this up quickly?
Clinsol gel for local application is advised for 3-6 weeks.
