Venereal Warts

Venereal warts are lesions that appear in the genital or anal area and are transmitted through sexual contact; they are associated with a very common viral infection. They are also known as genital warts or condylomas.

Common symptoms: They usually present as small bumps or growths on the skin and mucous membranes of the genital region, which may be single or multiple and, at times, cause discomfort.

When should you see a doctor? It is advisable to seek evaluation when any new lesion appears in the genital area or after risky contacts.

Which specialist treats it? The dermatologist, the urologist, and the infectious disease specialist are the reference professionals for its study. A consultation allows the condition to be confirmed, clear information to be provided, and appropriate follow-up to be guided.
