Aldara for genital warts?!
Question: I've been using it and it doesn't seem to work...it's been months. Are there any other medications for my condition? Like I read a lot of places, the Aldara burns for people when applied. Nothing happens, I don't feel anything when I put it on the wart...

Aldara doesn't work for all types of visible Genital Warts. You may have an HPV 16, 18 mosaic type known as Bowenoid Papulosis. Aldara does NOT work on these related types and needs to be treated as if it were a skin cancer. Luckily, there are many treatments available. (Florouracil and Podophyllyn etc) And yes.. even if removed.. you are still contagious.
