Genital warts (sometimes called condylomata acuminata or venereal warts) are the most easily recognized sign of genital HPV infection. Genital Warts are flesh-colored or gray growths found in the genital area and anal region in both men and women. But other common types of HPV that cause warts on the hands and the soles of the feet do not cause genital warts. There are over 70 different strains of HPV but only a few of these affect the genitals.
Genital warts are part of the Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) family. Genital warts may be as small as 1 to 2 millimeters in diameter – smaller than the width of a ballpoint pen refill – or may multiply into large clusters. There are cases where genital warts have been found on the thigh and groin. Most do not develop visible warts; the infection may show up on a cervical smear. This is known as subclinical infection. It is therefore extremely important to treat genital warts as soon as you are aware of their presence. There are many kinds of HPV. Not all of them cause genital warts. Most people who become infected with HPV will not have any symptoms and will clear the infection on their own.
