Do genital warts grow fast?

      In daily life, many people know that genital warts are a very painful thing. If left untreated, do genital warts appear to be fast or slow-growing? Genital warts seem to grow quickly and are more common in the foreskin belt, coronal groove, excessive foreskin, urethral orifice, male genitalia, anus, and perineum. Genital warts patients, especially those with a high risk of virus infection, have highly contagious disease and can infect relatives or others. Therefore, genital wart patients should seek treatment as soon as possible.

      What diseases can genital warts cause?

      1. Genital warts may be highly associated with malignant transformation. Clinical epidemiological data shows that genital warts are closely related to genital cancer. According to reports, 5% of genital and perianal warts exist in situ carcinoma and invasive carcinoma for a long time, 15% of penile cancer and 5% of female vulvar cancer occur in genital warts basically. Many experiments and scientific studies have also confirmed the logical relationship between HPV, genital warts, and genital cancer.

      2. Ulcers, bleeding: After the skin changes, it can cause foreign bodies and discomfort. Because the lesion is too long, it is located in the foreskin, urethral orifice, vulva, female vagina, anus, and other parts, and is prone to microbial infection, causing ulcers, pus, bleeding, pain, and expansion.

      3. Infant infection, affecting pregnancy quality: Pregnant women carrying genital warts may infect the baby during delivery depending on the baby’s birth canal, resulting in infant HPV infection. This is a serious genital wart.

      4. Non-genital site infections: Direct contact or indirect contact with objects contaminated by the environment can cause papillomas in the eye and oral mucosa.

      Urethral genital warts are generally asymptomatic, but the extension of the damage can cause hematuria, and large warts can cause urinary tract obstruction. Anal genital warts can occur in infants and young children. Women and children can develop genital and throat warts. Most cases are in infants, and the key is caused by HPV6 and HPV11. The route of virus transmission during fetal birth or postnatal infection is not clear. Subclinical HPV infection in the anal canal of the reproductive system is mostly subclinical, and less than half can be detected by histology, and a large number of clinical subclinical infections can be detected.
