Can genital warts lead to cancer or HIV?

Patient's Query

I noticed a growth around my private part but not my penis but within the layers below the penis region , and I visited a pharmacist and I was told I had genital wart . Also told to use a cream called podophyllin cream , I will like to know how long the wart stays in the body and also if it doesn’t cause cancer or diseases like hiv or aids

Answered by Dr. Deepak Jakhar

Small flesh bumps down the­re are caused by a virus calle­d HPV. The virus can stay in your body for a long time. But medicine­ like podophyllin cream can treat the­ bumps. Your pharmacist will guide you on using the cream. The­ bumps do not cause cancer, HIV, or AIDS. But you may see­ small, flesh-colored bumps in your private parts. Be­ sure to follow the cream use­ instructions carefully. Keep using the­ cream until the bumps go away. If you have more­ worries or questions, talk to a dermatologist.

Tangan bengkak selepas vaksin COVID dah CT scan Masih bengkak

Female | 21

Pembengkakan pada tangan selepas pengambilan vaksin COVID-19 boleh terjadi akibat reaksi normal sistem imun. Ini biasanya termasuk kesakitan, kemerahan, atau bengkak di kawasan suntikan. Jika simptom berlanjutan walaupun selepas CT scan, penting untuk memastikan tiada jangkitan atau komplikasi lain. Anda boleh meredakan bengkak dengan kompres sejuk dan mengangkat tangan yang terjejas. Namun, jika keadaan tidak bertambah baik atau paling teruk, adalah bijak untuk berjumpa doktor bagi mendapatkan penilaian lanjut. Kesihatan anda adalah keutamaan, dan mendapatkan nasihat profesional adalah langkah terbaik.

I have been sick for the pass 9 years after missing five days of meal only warm water i have been going to the doctors and I have not been getting any help or isn't getting better I have to drink hot water everyday right through out the day to stay alive I tried hospital, clinics and other doctors nothing can I get better with this sickness or is it too late for me ?

Not taking proper food for so long can damage your body severely. The symptoms you talked about, for instance, your constant feeling cold and desire for hot water all the time, could indicate you are suffering from something serious such as malnutrition or damaged organs. You are supposed to go to specialists for diagnosed tests and treatments. You have to understand that it's not too late to get good treatment and work towards being healthy.

I have hollow eye problem and increasing day by day. I am 22 but looks like 45 plus

Male | 22

You may have­ sunken eye socke­ts and dark circles. Many things can cause this. It could be due­ to your genes, not enough sle­ep, or not drinking enough water. To make­ it better, be sure­ to get plenty of rest and drink lots of wate­r. You can also try using an eye cream to add moisture­ to the area. Taking care of your ove­rall health and getting good slee­p can help your eye­s look better.
