A condyloma acuminata treatment regimen aims at eliminating the Human Papilloma Virus which causes this. The infection is usually seen as warts in and around the genital area. The treatment in turn is aimed at removing these warts and limiting the infection. This highly contagious virus cannot be eliminated from the genital skin completely. This is why the infection can recur in some persons. The chances of recurrence are higher if you are pregnant or have an infection which decreases your body's immunity.
Treatment and prevention run hand in hand. There is a vaccine available which protects women in the reproductive age from this viral infection. If you are a woman in this age group it would be a good idea to get yourself vaccinated with this. The benefits of vaccination are not just restricted to the infection. You also have lesser chances of developing cervical cancer, which has a high association with this infection.
The crux of condyloma acuminata treatment is locally applied creams. You should not confuse the creams that are prescribed by a qualified doctor with the lotions and creams that are available over the counter. As a thumb rule, you must stay away from any over the counter preparations in this regard. They only end up increasing the symptoms and irritation and this can have dangerous consequences. If you suspect an infection or if your partner has genital warts, go in for a consultation with a doctor immediately.
The doctor will take into consideration a few parameters before prescribing condyloma acuminata treatment. The things you will have to tell your doctor are whether you are pregnant or not, if you have had this infection before and if you have taken treatment for the condition before this. The doctor will prescribe you a cream in all probability especially if this is the first time you are having such an infection. There are still some preparations which can be applied only by the doctor. Most of the creams used for removing genital warts have side effects like irritation and itching. You will have to keep this in mind when you use them. Creams like podofin. aldara and efudex are available. Each has a different mechanism of action, duration of application and success rate.
The other mode of condyloma acuminata treatment is surgery. This is advised if you are pregnant, because most creams are detrimental to the growing fetus. You may also have to opt for this mode of treatment if you have very large warts which cannot be removed with creams alone. Surgery is often advised in recurring cases of warts. Here there is a high chance of cancer developing in the genitals later on. Surgery reduces the incidence of genital cancer, if done earlier. There are various modalities available like cryosurgery, electrocautery and surgical excision. You will have to take the advise of a qualified health care practitioner on the best modality for you. The recurrence rates are much lesser with surgery as compared to creams.
