Genital warts (Condyloma acuminata) are an extremely
contagious condition caused by an infection of the
human papilloma virus (HPV), which is spread by direct
contact, skin to skin, during vaginal, anal, or oral
sex with a partner who is infected with HPV. Genital
warts symptoms are fairly easy to diagnose. The virus
may even be contracted if no genital warts symptoms
are noticeable, which is quite common.
The Symptoms of Genital Warts
One of the biggest problems with HPV, is the long incubation
period before symptoms, if any, will start to become
noticeable. It could take as quick as one month or
as extensive as six months until the first genital
wart symptom is identified.

What do they look like?
Genital warts are usually flesh colored, or grayish white, growths. They can be flat, or protrude from the skin and may cluster together resembling a cauliflower in appearance. Usually they are flesh colored and do not cause any pain, however they may sometimes be itchy or cause mild pain
Some other symptoms of genital warts which may occur
are;
Increased moisture or dampness surrounding the growths;
With men: a general itching surrounding the penis
and the base of the penis, the scrotum, or the anus;
With women: a general itching of the vulva or inside
of the vagina, around the anus, or of the cervix.
Where do genital warts symptoms occur?
* Men: The tip of the penis is the most common location for genital warts in men. They may however occur around or in the anus, on the penis or the base, the scrotum or the groin and thigh area.
* Women: The vulva and inside of the vagina, around the anus, or around the cervix.
Risks:
Genital warts and the symptoms are usually harmless
however can be very discomforting if the condition
is not treated and allowed to spiral out of control.
Warts themselves may grow to be extremely large. There
is also a risk of cancer, and various types of cancer
have been linked to genital warts, particularly cervical
cancer. In men it is much less common for genital
warts to lead to cancer.
Conclusion:
Caution must be taken to notice any genital warts
symptom to avoid contaminating others with HPV
virus blisters. This may be difficult as symptoms
can take anywhere from 1 to 6 months to appear. During
this period it is still possible for the virus to
be transferred, even if no symptoms are visible. Exercise
extreme caution and be aware of any strange growths
or discoloration in the genital area.
