Avatar m tn i had a shiny hump on the left side of my urethral lining, i visited my doctor about two months ago and he suggested that it was herpes ulcer and prescribed acyclovir cream. now its all reddish inside but the left hump has decreased in size j but the seam to be some fleshy stuff growing on the right side, causes a tingly sensation and at time discomfort pain like i touched it with chillies on my fingers. i am confused , could this really be herpes or warts.
Avatar f tn However the whole time I was using aldara, condylox, podofilox, TCA treatments but the outbreaks kept coming each month and it was stressing me out because I never experienced outbreaks like this before even when I had the warts. I was so sure it was genital warts. My clincian had put me on acyclovir for episodes at first then I went on suppressive theraphy and is still taking it.
Avatar m tn obvious warts won't show up on pap testing. pap testing only looks for abnormal cervical cells. It doesn't routinely test for hpv or any other std. there are over 130 different types of hpv. Of those, about 30 cause infections in the genital area. Of those, some only cause obvious genital warts which are a cosmetic issue only. Of the rest that infect the genital area, we divide those further into 2 categories - low risk and high risk.
Avatar f tn that were continued to be treated with Acyclovir before I was told I also actually had a warts outbreak as well. The warts started rapidly spreading about 2months after the bumps appeared and after the first herpes outbreak. I have now had 4 herpes outbreaks (1 after starting maintenance acyclovir of 2 x 400mg per day) and 10 freezing treatments and nothing seems to be changing. I am on day 7 of the latest herpes outbreak and have been taking 5 x 400mg Acyclovir per day....
Avatar m tn He tested me, and I came back positive for HSV2. I started taking suppressive meds (acyclovir 800mg/day). The bump popped, diminished, then a month later came back, still no itch, no pain. I'm thinking this is a HSV2 outbreak and treat it with increased acyclovir. Time goes by and I'm asking questions on the HSV bulletin boards, and its not adding up. Finally I figure out it must be a wart. I get the medicine and the wart goes away in 3 days.
Avatar f tn «The first medicine used to treat genital warts was called Acyclovir. Acyclovir is a topical ointment that can be prescribed by a doctor to treat a variety of infections, including HPV. It is also used for chickenpox, shingles, and herpes infections in the skin and on the lips. Acyclovir does not cure herpes in patients; its purpose is to provide relief and reduce the severity and longevity of the symptoms. It can speed up the healing time of the warts faster than other solutions, as well.
Avatar f tn For hpv I had type 11 and for hsv 2 I had positive 1.3. Shortly after my doctor prescribed acyclovir 200mg 4x a day.
Avatar m tn I went to the doctors to get checked out, and he took a look and prescribed me Acyclovir. I have been taking acyclovir for the past 20 days and my outbreak is still there no of the lesions have popped and gone away. I have been bringing a ton of water and not eating processed food. Shouldn't it have cleared up by now? This is my initial outbreak and like I said before it has been three weeks since the start of the outbreak now. Any advice would be appreciated.
Avatar f tn However, the doctor in Mexico prescribed acyclovir 200 mg 4x a day. I had been reading that when hsv 2 is so low there is a chance that it could be false positive so I waited till October 25, 2012 to get retested for all std but I went to planned parenthood and the nurse told me the test I had been given was an igg and that my test results were negative with a result of .
Avatar n tn I have been to the doctor and have taken Ampicillin, metronidazole, Acyclovir, ketoconazole in that order. I recently went to the Dermatoligist and he gave me Cloderm to apply to the infected area. Now it is spreading down the penis. I have also had tingling in my fingers and toes but I'm not sure if that is related. I am also very sensitive to Poison Ivy. Can you help me?
Avatar f tn s and my dermatologist, treating me for some psoriasis on my buttocks, indicated I had a herpes sore on the left one. He gave me acyclovir (5 pills a day) and I am on the third day. I have developed another sore on the other buttock and can't tell if it is herpes or not. I began waking up in the middle of the night a couple of weeks ago with terrible pain in the left buttock that sometimes travelled down my leg.
Avatar m tn In the beginning I used Condolox to remove these small warts but it often only works temporally until another one pops up. I WISH MY PENIS LOOKED NORMAL...I WOULDN'T MIND THE OUTBREAKS AS MUCH!!! I hate looking at these goose bumps and my urologist doesn't understand how crazy it gets me. He said there is nothing I can do??? Please understand that I never ever use pharmaceutical drugs.
Avatar f tn I was diagnosed with genital warts in 1999 I was treated with aldara the warts didn't come back until years later and the outbreaks weren't that bad. The outbreaks would come every other year and go away without treatment. However, in August 2008 I started getting outbreaks and I thought it was genital warts but it turned out to be genital herpes and I am still having outbreaks my last outbreak was in November but I am on suppressive theraphy.
Avatar f tn The last time I had sex was August 3, since then I didnt have sex, few weeks ago, I had some perineum cuts. I went to OB-GYNE and had pap test and High Vaginal Swab test, tests were normal, I asked my OB about the cuts, she can't even explain to me, she just gave FUCICORT cream which I applied to my perineum cuts(from vagina to anus), these perineum cuts are like paper cuts, and after I put the cream, after a day, it's gone, then it didn't come back, but since starting of Nov.
Avatar m tn Hi, Fairly low risk esp if there were no obvious sores or warts present.
6528681 tn?1382147006 I had oral sex with someone and I developed after a week small white bumps on my lower lip and gums. The doctor has given me antibiotics, but it hasn't went away. He told me to take acyclovir and that didn't resolve the issue either... Now, he tried an oral fungal medication and that hasn't worked either. I am going nuts... I learned a big lesson from this.... But, what can this be???
Avatar m tn When I looked at my anus today I saw what looks like little purple grapes bubbling up around the opening. There are no scabs. Could these be Herpes lesions or Anal Warts? I have had hemorrhoids in the past, but I don't recall there being so many bumps. These do look a little bit like varicose veins. I'm worried that she could have had Herpes Whitlow on her finger and that it was shedding without any visible lesions. Is is possible to Herpes this way?
Avatar f tn I started having outbreaks in Aug 2008. I thought it was genital warts outbreaks because I was diagnosed with genital warts in 1999. At the time I was treated with aldara but I would get recurrances from time to time.However I went to the clinic and doctor and I was being treated with aldara, condylox, TCA, and podofilox and the whole time it was genital herpes I didn't find out until April 2010.

Avatar m tn My Doctor gave me a prescription for some acid to get rid of the bumps, but they are not warts. I think it is an STD, it itches and tingles. But my doctor seems confused by what it is or could be. Is it hsv2 or is it HPV? Please help, it is irritating. Any ideas on what it could be?
Avatar m tn ve read can be symptoms of an initial herpes infection. I did not immediately begin acyclovir. The freezing made the bumps go away. About 1 month post-final exposure (approx. June 15 or so) I developed pinkish/reddish spots in my upper genital area, many of them, possibly 30 or so. I was worrying and working alot at the time. A few were raised a bit, and I popped one. A somewhat thick white substance came out accompanied by a little blood. After about 5 weeks it had not cleared much.
Avatar f tn I stopped taking acyclovir in December 2011. I have had numerous outbreaks like once a month or every couple of months. I have had HSV2 four years and four months now. My last outbreak was maybe eight weeks ago. Shouldn't my outbreaks decrease since I have had the virus for some time.I would like to know is that too many outbreaks to be experiencing.
Avatar m tn i started taking acyclovir a few days ago for the first time for a mild cold sore breakout. 2 days after i started, the cold sores got more intense, and 2 new huge cold sores came up out of nowhere. i have 3 more days left of the medication, and i'm going to keep taking it, but what should i do? these cold sores are not going away, and it seems like its getting worse! so done with these friggin things...
