Genital warts - condylomata acuminata, venereal warts
From MayoClinic.com Genital warts (or condyloma) is a Sexually Transmitted Disease (STD) caused by the human papilloma virus (HPV). Some people will have a genital HPV infection without genital warts. They may look like small, flesh-colored bumps or have a cauliflower-like appearance. Sometimes they may be only 1 to 2 millimeters in diameter. In other situations, the warts may multiply into clusters, which can be quite large. In women, genital warts can grow on the vulva, the walls of the vagina, the area between the external genitals and the anus (perineum), and the neck of the uterus (cervix). In men, they may be found on the tip or shaft of the penis, the scrotum or the anus. They can also develop in the mouth or throat of a person who has had oral sexual contact with an infected person. Although genital warts can be treated, they are a serious health concern. The virus that causes them - the human papillomavirus (HPV) - has been associated with Cervical cancer. It has also been linked with other types of genital cancers. Signs and symptoms The signs and symptoms of genital warts include:
