| 5 | Genital Warts | Stinging and Burning | My Doc froze my warts several times, but they never totally went away. So she gave me Condylox, told me to put it on my warts 3 consecutive days a week twice a day. okay. well, the first go round was not pretty. She didn't really stres how careful you should be to NOT GET THIS ON YOUR NORMAL SKIN. I had a bunch in the area between my vagina and my rectum, and I got some on skin down there, I was in pain for a week. You can't sit, walk, do ANYTHING. But, they did go away after the first week. They came back a couple weeks later and a few are in some tricky spots. But this time it isn't half as bad. I take my time and make sure to get it directly on the wart and make SURE it dries first as well. That would be my main advice, take your time, be accurate and make sure they dry and you'll have no problems. This gel is awesome at curing warts if you do it right. | F | 21 | 1 months | 11/9/2009 | 5 | Anal Wart | Intense burning and itching after Day 3, on first day off treatment. Exacerbated by movement. Lasted for four days, on the fifth day off the treatment normal activities could be resumed. It would wake me up during the night, that's how intense it was. | Give yourself time to do nothing but sit on the first day of rest, time it so it falls on a free weekend. Neosporin cream with pain relief with be your best friend, apply with a q-tip. For me sitting helped, even in sleep. I took to sleeping in a chair for a few nights. Extremely effective, just be aware of the side effects. Using petroleum jelly in unaffected areas to keep from getting it on your skin is highly advised. | M | 21 | 3 days | 11/8/2009 | 1 | GW on anus | Burnt healthy skin, rawness, oozing, light bleeding. malodor. misery. | Ebola virus in a tube. Doc didnt advise me well on this stuff. I put a dot on the wart on my crack, which rubbed against the other cheek, burning on both sides of the equator. Painful to walk, sit, do just about anything. Prescribed to take for 10 days, if I did ten days of this stuff, it would probably eat straight through to my colon. Doc sliced the wart off, then prescribed this to keep it from coming back. now i just hope the rest of my skin down there grows back. BE SUPER CAREFUL WITH THIS STUFF! | M | 24 | 3 days | 10/16/2009 | 5 | GW | I had one big wart and some smaller ones and after the first day of using Condylox I only had the big one and one small one left. After the third day they are way smaller and are almost all gone. Judging from the rate of success from the first week, by the end of the second week I expect them all to be completely gone. I'm glad I read this posting before I started using Condylox. I made sure to not get it on any healthy skin and I used a hair dryer on cool to let it dry. I experienced extreme itching and pain one of the nights and the day after it kind of hurt to walk but then the pain went away the next day. It wasn't anything unbearable and it was definitely worth it! I might try neosporin the next week which might help with the itching. | I only dealt with itching and slight pain on one of the nights. I would definitely recommend this product. I used Aldara the week before and saw no results. After the first day of using Condylox I only had two warts left and they are almost gone after the third application. I have also been taking 2,000mg of vitamin C everyday, eating healthy, not smoking cigarettes and getting lots of sleep which is probably helping my immune system. | F | 18 | 3 days | 9/25/2009 | 3 | GW on pubic area | mild buring and iching | i have not seen any changes in my warts. The Dr did not do a good job explaining to me what was going to happen or what i might expect during treatment. Now there are red spots over the warts which i hope is a good thing. My warts are still there so i hope they start to go away soon. | M | 28 | 2 weeks | 9/17/2009 | 5 | Genital Warts | One little dot of gel on the wart works!! If you have big warts go get them frozen off, it doesn't hurt at all and if you are embarassed, do what I did, find a female dermatologist!! | M | 40 | 2 weeks | 8/28/2009 | 3 | Genital Warts | Burning and pain. | This treatment is on par with the others I have had. Aldara was the only thing that didn't hurt but I had an allergic reaction to it. Cryotherapy was the most painful I have ever done, because each wart is frozen. I have about 50 warts due to a severe outbreak because I am diabetic and I couldn't take the pain. My last acid treatment left a sore. I am praying that his will finally do the trick. | F | 27 | 2 days | 8/21/2009 | 3 | shaft warts | i havent noticed any of the severe burning. its a mild stinging for a bit. its hard to get it exactly on the tiny warts. its harder waiting naked for it to dry. i use a cotton swab with the cotton removed, its just a stick. i refuse to use the applicator tube because it will waste the medicine and possibly not store as well or last as long. | the reason i want it to last a long time is because it waws $240!!!!!!!!! standing there with them knowing why i had to have the gel was one thing and then standing there with $30 in my pocket and a credit card...sucked. i had to charge the stuff but i must stop any growth or spreading. im starting the 3rd day and they dont appear to be dying. | M | 2 days | 8/21/2009 | 2 | Anal Warts | Excruciating pain!, stinging, burning, odor, rotting skin | Just did the 1st three day treatment and I am at home right now, cannot even walk from the pain. I have never felt such severe pain in my life. I think I would rather wait for the warts to fall off on their own than to use this medicine again. I would literally start crying when I sat on the toilet to apply the gel just thinking of the stinging and the pain after that. The warts are still there, as big as ever and they seem swollen, I cant go to the bathroom coz I cant wipe due to the pain. Im just miserable. On top of that I cant even shower and scrub btwn my buttocks coz of the pain. I now have a nasty odor on my privates like rotting flesh, and it looks like my flesh is rotting down there. Will throw away that medicine for sure. At least I only paid $35 with my insurance. | F | 30 | 3 days | 8/18/2009 | 4 | Molluscum | I had a few Molluscum spots in my genital area and since I did not like the idea of scarring due to freezing, my Dr, gave me condylox. The first two days of its use, i felt nothing, light burning on application but fine after that. Third day it started to feel that something was going on as the are started drying up. After the 4 day break I started applying Condylox again, and on the 2nd day of my 2nd course, the area became very very painful. I had issues walking, sitting, sleeping. I immediately went to see my Dr, and he told me that i now have an infection and gave me Bactroban. Thatw as a miracle gel and the pain and the Molluscum went away withing 3-4 days. So my take is this. Use condylox and Bactroban togethr. You will have a strong likelihood of bacterial infection come in when the condylox starts working on the virus, and that is what causes the pain. Bactroban at least in my opinion took care of the 2ndary infection | This gel works, is very possible, but you have to be patient. My molluscum disappeared on the 2nd course, but it is so powerful that it caused infection to creep in and thats where the pain came from. I would ask the dr to also give you some anti bacterial gel to rub once or twice a day. The condylox is though no guarantee that Molluscum will not happen again. Mine disappeared but in 1 and a half months a few more popped up. Now I know the routine so attacking it with the condyloc Bactroban combination | M | 39 | 12 days | 8/2/2009 | 4 | GW | Some discomfort with the effected areas after application. the non infected skin must have gotten the gel on it cause there is a patch of dried, slightly tinted red skin. It looks dry and crackled. Does anyone know after applying the gel if you're supposed to let it sit here or wash it off after it dries or what?! | Aside from what i said over there, i'm wondering what everyone else does after applying the gel? Do you let the gel just stay there or do you let it dry for a bit then wash and dry before going about your day? the box doesn't really say. | M | 24 | 4 days | 7/28/2009 | 3 | GW | Painful, burnsss | So I was diagnosed with HPV about two years ago, and I now have my first symptom, GENITAL WARTS. At first it FREAKED ME OUT! I had no idea what it was because I was cleared from HPV, so I thought I didn't have it anymore. I was prescibed condylox from my doctor, and it BURNS!!! I have to literally prepare myself before putting it on. And once I put it on I had to breathe like I am having a baby and count to twenty. I do not know how many warts I have, but at first it was a little thing, but the first doctor prescibed me aldara and it seem to make it worse. So then I was given condylox, I am on day two and they seem to be getting better, but I am not competely sure, right now I am just looking forward to the four day break, and hoping they are gone before the next three application days. And like everyone else said DO NOT GET IT ON THE HEALTHY SKIN, I seen little red bumps around my warts, which I thought were maybe more warts growing in the process, but now I am starting to think I was WRONG. I will be back tomorrow, hopefully I have luck like some of these other ppl and they fall off by the third day. | F | 21 | 2 days | 7/23/2009 | 3 | Genital Warts | About two months ago i realized I had some wart like bumps on my pubic patch. I went to the doctor she thought it was folliculitis because I shave and I was relieved. I then went to the dermatologist today because they have recently been worse and I wanted an answer. I whiped it out and he saw them for all of 2 seconds and said they were warts and I was shocked. Told me to use condylox and I will post soon and give an update. | I used the gel for the first time a few hours ago and have not felt any burning or itching yet so I hope it doesn't occur. Its a total mind blow that I could have genital warts at age 19 | M | 19 | 1 days | 7/23/2009 | 4 | hpv anal warts | Burning for about a min after condyloz is applied.. some iching not much. | I have used aldara I had no problems with it matter of fact my hpv infection was gone for 4 years thought it cured me. But I have reached a outbreak and can't get ride of them. I used aldara again. And they won't go away just makes them smaller... so I applied a ton of it and it lit my ass on fire lol.... that's only eay I could see a affect... so I just finished my first wee treatment today and the area looks white.... as if its been soaking in water... haven't experience dry affect yet or crust.. no order either.. looks like it has remove some warts I had 3 small ones and 1 bigger one that were white colored ne ways... some blood after applying condylox just spots... and I think there looks like there is a hole where a wart may have been still to early to see full results... but this site is good info for peeps with hpv | M | 24 | 3 days | 7/19/2009 | 3 | External Genital Warts | a lot of burning, skin peeling, redness everywhere...hardcore stuff | I was prescribed it about a week ago...the doc said i had 50-100 bumps it was pretty bad. But i used this for one week and they are gone! i might have one or two but im waiting to see exacally whats goin on before i do it again because the gel is made my pubic region really sensitive and red and im missing some skin :(. But as of now im pretty satisfied with the product, we'll see in the next coming week. | M | 20 | 1 weeks | 7/19/2009 | 3 | GW | omg....it burrrnnsssss...if you do not carefully put it on the affected area..AND let it dry...it will burn..ALOT..its like acid on the skin...and im not exaggerating..i cant sit or walk straight..every ounce of me wants to head to the gym but i cant move...and some of my skin has peeled off | the warts did go away though..i've only been using it for three days..and the doctor prescribed it for me..for a month..so im debating whether i wanna keep using it even though all my warts are gone..plus i heard to ease the acid pain is by using neosporin..i juss used it..and its working okay... | F | 23 | 3 days | 7/18/2009 | 1 | GW | I was prescribed this medication is 1991 for warts. I suffered a severe chemical burn that was so very painful. The vulvar skin never healed and I had to have reconstructive surgery b/c the "acid" I will call it burned me to pieces. Since that time, I have not had children, cannot have sex, and live in chronic debilitating vulvar pain. How is that for a side effect from this mediaction? Get your warts lasered!! | NEVER USE THIS. IT ALTERED MY LIFE FOREVER. PLEASE PLEASE DON'T USE. I TRIED TO SUE THIS PHARM COMPANY AND LOST. THEY DON'T CARE. A TAKE HOME ACID?? COME ON?????? | F | 38 | 6/26/2009 | 4 | Genital Warts (anal) | It burned a lot, and I really couldn't move for the couple of days I used it. But - it reduced the size of my warts drastically. | Make sure you put it on the warts ONLY - It will cause sever pain and bleeding if put on skin. | M | 18 | 6/17/2009 | 1 | Genital Warts | Stinging, difficulty moving if it stretched affected skin, moderate pain at all times, | Do not take condylox gel. It is very painful and takes too long. It's also very expensive. (It cost me $200 WITH insurance.) Just have them frozen off. I know that sounds scary, but the pain is rather minimal and the it doesn't hurt very much at all after. The skin dies more quickly and flakes off within 5 days. Condylox didn't take away as many as freezing did and I only had to go to the doctor's office twice for treatment. Only two warts had remained after the first visit. They don't even know how condylox gel warts...that in itself should be scary. | M | 18 | 3 days | 6/14/2009 | 4 | GW | Burning, Stinging, Pain, Soreness, Odor. | This stuff works, but like everyone else has said previously- BE CAREFUL! Only apply to warts not healthy skin. It stings upon application and hurts starting around the 2nd day of treatment. This is the second time I've used it and it took a lot for me to even do it again because the last time I couldn't sit, stand or properly wipe myself! But like I said it works- and I will take pain over embarrassing warts any day! | F | 25 | 3 days | 6/11/2009 | 1 | Anal GW | None except for the fact that I now have 2 holes in my anus. One I was born with and the second one was from this horrible acid called Condylox. | Worst pain ive ever felt. The scariest part is that I can visibly see missing flesh. I cant sleep at night. I cant walk. Im debating whether I should go to the ER right now. I used the appropriate amount. It just spread around the area when I walked. I cant imagine a pain worse that this. In just 3 days it has eaten about a depth of 1cc of skin right off. bloody too. Im not kidding. | M | 19 | 3 days | 5/25/2009 | 4 | Molluscum | I am on day 4 for Molluscum, NOT FOR GENITAL WARTS. First two days felt nothing, but day three it started to itch a little, skin got harder and it felt itchy. I applied the medicine exactly as was perscribed, i.e only applied to the molluscum that had popped up. Well day four it burnt a bit, was scratch, though a good scratch, and the skin has turned brittle and dark. Lets see what happens next, though on physical examination, the molluscum seem to be drying up | M | 39 | 4 days | 5/15/2009 | 1 | genital warts | n/a | ive never used condylox. i use yellow dial soap. sounds too good to be true (and for those that have many large warts it might not work) but i only get one or two medium sized warts maybe once a year and yellow dial soap gets rid of them in less than a week. sounds crazy i know but it works for me and NO PAIN...also i try to keep a very good diet so that my immune system is healthy. | F | 26 | 0 days | 5/5/2009 | 3 | anal warts | not taken yet. | So, the surgeon told me to have my anal warts removed at surgery. then i went to a GI doctor and he told me that they normally do surgery in my community because we have lots of surgeons available and this is a easy task. I asked him about condylox and he prescribed to me, Im now afraid to use it because of all of these comments below, it seems like 1 or a few days of pain from surgery is far less pain than everyone here having to go through it for possibly 4 weeks. any suggestions? | M | 27 | 0 days | 5/2/2009 | 2 | genital warts (rectal) | Stinging and burning for about 90 seconds. Slight to moderate discomfort for the duration of treatment. | I had about 20-30 warts total of various sizes about 6 of them were pretty large and seemed to be main ones which the smaller ones were growing around. I went through 1.5 small bottles of Condylox paying about $130 USD for each bottle. I used it for 4 days on then I would take a week off. After the first treatment many of the smaller warts were gone and the larger ones became smaller. After many weeks of treatment all but 1 large wart were gone. This 1 very large wart would swell up during the treatment then shrink down to the size it was before the treatment week. Getting frustrated that I could not get rid of this last one I searched for alternative treatments. I read that Apple Cider Vinegar can get rid of all warts. I tried this which I would pour some on a cotton ball or balled up tissue and dab it all over the infected area. There was only a little bit of stinging for about 20 seconds and no discomfort after the application. I did this about 3-4 times a day morning after noon evening and before I went to bed. In about 2 weeks the final wart was gone. It has been about a year now and the warts have not returned. My suggestion is to anyone w/any wart infection to try this if you don’t have any allergies to Apple Cider Vinegar. Its far less painful and very inexpensive and a natural treatment as opposed to an unnatural chemical one. | M | 33 | 6 months | 3/30/2009 | 3 | gw | I had 1 wart on my anal region. Experienced severe pain, redness and bleeding, mild odor all around the area where the gel got on the healthy skin tissue on the 2nd rest day after 3 days of treatment. | I cannot stress enough DO NOT let this gel get on healthy skin tissue. It is very severe pain and bleeding. I feel like my skin is raw and peeling away. When it says let it dry wait at least 30 minutes to move at all. I think the product does its job considering the wart is about gone but so is my entire anal region. It didn't effect me like this until the 2nd rest day but I'm telling you it is so very painful if it gets on healthly skin. I have been using neosporin with pain relief which helps, but I'm wondering how long it will take that area to heal. It is so tender and it burns when I walk. It truly is horrible pain. And it is bled alot that 2nd rest day. If you apply it correctly with patience it will work, however BE CAREFUL! Had I known how bad it was gonnna be I would have been more careful. | F | 27 | 3 days | 3/11/2009 | 4 | genital venereal warts | PAIN - SWELLING | I misused the drug due to the fact that i didnt read the directions or research the net about it. I wish i would have found this page before i used it or read the directions that were given to me when i picked up the prescription. Being a dumb ass man, i just put it all over my penis and on the warts. My penis swelled twice its size it seems and was very painful. I knew i was suppose to use it for three days then rest. I did so, but was missusing the gel everywhere on my penis head and shaft. Finally instinct told me to stop using it and rest. Im on day 3 of rest and my penis is back to normal and the warts are deadening and old skin is coming off. Now reading this I will start up tommorrow AFTER my showers and apply ONLY on the warts themselves with a cotton swab applicator a small dot on the warts. I only have three and expect they will disappear soon. They are already dead it seams, but when I shower they turn white and are noticeable. I will apply only for three more day | M | 39 | 3 days | 3/3/2009 | 2 | HPV | a little itching | I'm starting my third treatment week and my wart still remains. I've had no pain, just a bit of itching. the wart has gone down slightly in size but just barely, I'd imagine this is going to have to be surgically removed. I'm disappointed. | M | 26 | 2 weeks | 2/24/2009 | 3 | HPV, Warts | 1st day I felt nothing, 2nd day had slight burning & itching, 3rd day more burning & itching. On my 4th day (my 1st off day), I had tons of pain, burning, itching, tingling, open sores, a little bleeding. This is day 5 and still as bad as day 4. I wanna cry! | The medicine is working, but this seems like a lot of pain to go through. My doctor told me that taking this medicine was the pain free route to take and so far it's been farrrrr from pain free. But they are slowly falling off which is something cause I've used Aldara before and that was a waste of time. | F | 26 | 5 days | 2/18/2009 | 1 | GW | Very Painful | I used the gel about a year ago. It did great, but afterwards I continued to feel itching around my vaginal area. Went to the dr, and she said it was a yeast from the antibiotic. Most of the itch went away with yeast infection meds, but a little didn't. The problem is I put the gel on healthy skin, and it caused a itch that has never went away. I am not sure if it's a yeast or bacteria from the gel that will not go away. Please, Please someone if u can help please e-mail me. | F | 29 | 4 days | 2/10/2009 | 4 | HPV / G. Warts | Day 1. I have 13 warts on base of my shaft and 1 about a little over an inch above my shaft. I applied it about an hour ago. Not feeling any burning or tingling on the wart itself. The only pain I have experienced is some of the condylox gel rubbed on my inner thigh and had a slight burn until I washed it with soap and water. Hopefully I put enough on because I can not feel any burning onthe warts. I'll send day 2 update tomorrow | I just advise be very careful when you apply it. Don't be sloppy with the gel and rub it all over, That might hurt a little. | M | 28 | 1 days | 2/7/2009 | 1 | wartsonmydaughters belly | i stupidly brought my daughter to a dermatalogist for two warts on her belly that in 3 months of treatments spread to 6 and now one over her eye, shes only 8 and i dont know where it could have come from, i was told its a virus, now when i searched for this new cream they prescribed i see its for genital warts and it annoys me that this could be prescribed for a child, and im so retarted i didnt think of searching first, after 900 dollars out of pocket for this medicine i see its a big mistake, i was told to do it twice a day on each wart and what she has is a big red burnt areas around her stomache and chest, that burned the crap out of her, so not acceptable for a kid to go through, so dermatalogist provides a cream called desonide which after i read up on it now it is a steroid and should not be put on children!! I'm so fed up with this! i cant believe this is happening to us!so anyone that reads this before buying for a child, do not even try to put on ur kids, also this cream is f | for what it does it may be good for an adult but definitely not for a child! | F | 8 | 5 days | 1/15/2009 | 4 | genital warts | after the first cycle of using this gel i could barely walk, i WAS swollen, had open sores and it burned soo much. I didn't take any medicine for the intense pain. After three days I was able to go back to normal and my vagina looked normal again and I was clear from all the warts i had. two months later I saw warts appear and everytime I see one, I put the gel onto them. I am careful now and never have experienced the pain I went through the first time | this medicine is very expensive but very useful. make sure to only apply to warts n let dry until the wart looks white. | F | 21 | 3 days | 1/13/2009 | 4 | hpv warts | not too much.actually maybe a little itching, and a little discmfort by the ones on my "nacha" (not your vagina / not your butthole) | i've read the commentsabove and i have to say i was pretty impressed. i was so scared to try it because of burning and the sore i read above, but within the first application i noticed they were smaller. well at least the ones that were similiar to tag moles. the larger warts i noticed looked a bit dryed out. this morning i applied my second application, they are sore to touch but no scorching burning pain. but i applied my gel with a q-tip and i had a magnifying mirror to make sure i was applying it ONLY to the warts themselves. i dont completely cover my entire warts either. just the head of them, maybe that would help cut down the burning on the other people who are experiencing pain. but also i take a shower before each application. but i'll be back in a couple of days to let you guys know how it goes. i also started taking vitamin c each day starting yesterday when i did my first application to help boost my immune susytem so maybe that will be a factor in the healing process. i r | F | 27 | 2 days | 12/18/2008 | 4 | Genital warts. | General sorness. kind of hurt to walk. | I think the main thing with this is making sure you DO NOT hit healthy skin. I have about seven..some were rather large. I'm on day two and they are over halfway off. I'm having some pain. I'd call it just sore feeling though and it hurts to walk a BIT but nothing like anybody else is saying. I hvae two doese left and seeing as how they are hanging off i know they'll be gone in one round of treatment. It takes me nearly thrity mins. to put this on. I cannot stress that enough GET A HARD MIRROR IF YOU ARE A WOMAN AND MAKE SURE YOU DONT HIT ANY HEALTHY SKIN. I ALSO PUT A MINIMAL AMOUNT ON AND IT DID THE JOB. I'm pretty sure a lot of people are overusing this. Also ladies if you have a hair dryer put it on cool and dry it with that...that way it doesn't migrate. | F | 28 | 2 days | 12/17/2008 | 2 | Genital Warts | I have not had any side effects. My doctor told me I would be in pain and possibly could not walk. Well I am on the second week and I have not had any pain or discomfort at ALL!! | I keep wondering if I am not putting on enough or if I am not letting it dry long enough. Well that cannot be the case because I completely covered every visible wart with the medicine AND let it dry for at least 30 minutes before I put clothes back on. I am so frustrated!!! | F | 22 | 2 weeks | 12/14/2008 | 5 | Genital Warts | Burning, SORE!!, swelling, redness. | Condylox worked great on me! I had MANY lesion and tried a variety of things such as TCA, salicylic (sp?) acid, teatree oil, etc. This cleared almost all of the warts (apprx 15-25 present) after the first week. I am on the second week and only have 4 warts left...its amazing and i am so happy/relieved!!!!! During the three day treatment, it was about day 3 that I started feeling sore, some swelling and pain. During the off days, the warts were discolored (white) and peeled off. I soaked myself in a warm bath for 20 minutes to help shed the dead skin off and then washed the area with mild soap and warm water. If you put too much and get it on good skin, the gel will kill healthy skin so apply carefully and NOT all over! applying the gel to skin other than the wart will result in increased pain. The pain wasnt THAT unbearable and at this point, I was so desperate to get rid of the warts that I was willing to deal with the side effects...Give it a shot, its worth it! | F | 22 | 2 weeks | 12/10/2008 | 3 | genital warts | oh my goodness be careful!! If you want to get ride of them it totally works but you may have to deal with some pain. | I was recently diagnosed with genital warts.... I havent had sex in two years and BOOM all of a sudden there they were. So to answer the comment for the guy experiencing bumps 9 years later it is DEFINITELY possible with HPV... it incubuates for a long time and usually guys carry it for years before it affects them, if it even does. Men usually just carry it and give it to others without knowing. As far as treatment goes I've been doing some research and hear that tea tree oil may help cure the disease, I figure its worth a try! Good luck everyone!! | F | 18 | 3 days | 12/1/2008 | 1 | to get rid of genital warts | Wow. uh it totally is not worth the pain. i have barely been able to walk for 3 days. My labia was sore 3 times its normal size and i had visible holes in my skin. the neosporin did help, but i can't imagine ever taking this knowing the side effects are so serious. what is worse is that my doctor didnt warn me of anyting serious and my pharmacist had no idea what to do. | Don't do it! Try everything else before you try it! Getting rid of a few warts is not worth this pain and suffering! | F | 18 | 3 days | 11/30/2008 | 3 | doctor told me to | i was experiencing an intolerable itch in my netherlands, both near the anus as well as le vagine. he removed two warts about 3 weeks ago but the itching still persisted so he prescribed this for me. i also have lidocaine/prylocaine that is a numbing agent but even that couldn't assuage the burning and swelling produced by the condylox. | i am on day three and my lady love was so swollen this morning that i could barely get out of bed this morning and it kept me up all night. i showered this morning and waited a few hours before reapplying after reading comments here that the swelling seemed to be "normal" side effect and now i'm just holding tight. the itching seems to be gone i guess, either that or my brain receptors are only picking up on the bruised, painful swelling. peeing hurts, yes; as well as wiping, drying after shower, sitting, wearing pants, pretty much everything. tonight is last application before i go 4 days without so keep you posted. | F | 24 | 3 days | 11/12/2008 | 3 | Genital Warts | During the 3 day application process, I had to stop using it on the 2nd day because my vagina was swollen so bad! My doctor didn't warn me about the side affects, and I didn't take the directions on the box very serious because I didn't think it was that powerful! But this pain is...ugh. I can't pee, and when i do, the open sores will burn and if I try to wipe, it stings like crazy! But I think it may be working because there have been small drops of blood..Anyway, if it works, it was totally worth it because warts are nasty and embarrasing. | I think Condylox needs to warn you more about the serious side effects. Great results, but serious side effects. I think I will try neosporin because everybody on her says it eases the pain. | F | 18 | 3 days | 11/11/2008 | 3 | Genital Warts | Got it a bit on the surronding skin...painful burning, redness...i literally just finished putting on the final application of day 3. Now 4 day rest. So far, havent seen any results. But im staying confident. | Had warts down on the very, very end of my shaft...where it hits the pube area. Must say, it is painful. But im hopeing it is worth it. Ill be back in 4 days with an update | M | 22 | 3 days | 11/3/2008 | 5 | genital warts | The solution burns slightly when applied. | I had my doctor freeze my warts off (embarrassing but just man up and get them treated) and I then used Condylox for 4 weeks after they had fallen off. Never have had any more for over ten years now. | M | 34 | 30 days | 10/4/2008 | 3 | gw | Im not experiencing anything after my first dose.. Im wondering if I put enough on there but with what everyone is saying Im skeptical about over using it | M | 1 days | 10/3/2008 | 4 | haven't started...... yet? | None, just have a question for the people on this forum.. | Just noticed possible warts... the problem is I don't now if that is what they are.. the look extremely similar to the photos online so I suspect that is the case. BUT, it has been 9 years since I was with an infected gal? She told me after the fact... I figured after a few years I got lucky. Is it possible they could show up 9 years later? I have been with my wife and only my wife the entire time? ( she had only one partner previous to me and has never had signs herself ). I suspect it is from my past, but 9 years, I haven't read of anything incubating that long? anyone have any comments... I am going to try the condylox soon to maket sure this doesn't get out of hand.... | M | 39 | 0 days | 9/4/2008 | 4 | HPV | Burns a little.... but it is worth it!! I tried freezing them off myself.... then Aldera ( waist of time and money) I am telling you i tried everything under the sun... | Now I got Condylox and this stuff works!! It is war.... the warts stand no freaking chance!! | M | 30 | 8/28/2008 | 5 | gw | stinging, burning, omg!!!!! | i just recently noticed the bumps around my rectum so i check it out on the web, the first thing i do is freak out!!! the second is call my doctor. and he confirmed it, girl, you got genital warts. So he gives me this 261 dollar prescription and tells me" make sure u only apply on the warts, be very careful" Well, i guess i missed (they were so small and few) that i couldnt help but to apply the gel to my skin. didnt wait for it to dry (i wish he would have told me) and now im in AGONY!!!!! someone help me please!! i hear neosporin works well, but is it quick? im taking up 15 units right now in college and i cannot afford to miss any days!!! I can hardly walk, stand up, sit down, or move from side to side, i need something fast!!!!! Any suggestions? | F | 3 days | 8/27/2008 | 4 | warts | pain.. but they started comming off after a few days.. i waited to see if they would go away by themselves before asking for treatment.. so i had a few that were about 2yrs old.. clustered around the base above my penis and in the pubic region.. its scabing and i can only find them by feeling for them. im on my second cycle and man it hurts to walk, but i can tell its working.. its kind of comforting knowing im not the only one that has had this pain.. | M | 25 | 2 weeks | 8/20/2008 | 4 | warts | Have trouble spotting warts in hard to see areas? I recently found an amazing solution that has helped me manage my warts...a USB hand held microscope attached to a Laptop! This has had a profound affect on my condition- i spot them sooner with self exams, they spread less. I feel i have greater control now. | I researched and found this one: Dino-Lite Digital Microscope. It magnifies from 20 to 200 percent. I consider it the perfect tool for personal wart detection. Just wanted to share this with all of you. | M | 10 months | 8/3/2008 | 4 | Genital Warts | Very rapid deterioration of skin. A strange bitter taste in mouth that wont go away. | Don't over do it! only apply where needed! Applied it at night for 5 days, with no application for 2 days. Stuff will burn a hole right through your wiener if your not careful. Overall painful experience, but after the flesh stopped falling off, the warts were gone! =) | M | 33 | 5 days | 7/31/2008 | 4 | Warts | None Yet | Everyone says "Let it dry". Okay, how long does that take? 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 1 hour, 4 hours? can someone please help me out? it's not like you can rub the area to see if it's dry or not... | M | 44 | 1 days | 7/22/2008 | 4 | HPV | pain, slight itching. if you overuse or spread too much.. you'll want to die. | Misdiagnosed for hemorrhoids, got a prescription cream which of course turned a few problem areas that i couldn't really see into a ridiculous mess. I had a lot, and used it for 3 days, spreading WAY generously.. yeah, mistake. it works, but you HAVE to be precise. i couldn't walk or stand or function at all, worst pain ever, but it worked. its been a few months since i used the stuff and i have significant scar tissue. just be careful and make sure to get it only where you need it. Also, i hear carrots are natural aids to clearing it up and smoking affects how fast you heal (or if you don't heal) | M | 21 | 3 times | 7/16/2008 | 2 | Yes | Burning, skin peeling, scabs, itching. | I wanted to post this information so it may benifit someone, and save them from the pain I went through. I read a couple of the post and I guess the pain level depends on the person and the infected area. I had what I thought and a doctor told me were genital warts around the base of the head of my penis. Turns out after using Condylox, freezing, and aldera............they weren't even warts at all. PPP a condition that has nothing to do with warts or sex. Here is a link to the condition. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pearly_penile_papules As far as the condylox.........use it carefully. I was in severe pain for days (3 days after the first cycle of treatment). Had to take off work for one day due to the pain. Only use it on the bump. Which was hard for me to do since my bumps were so small. | M | 34 | 4 weeks | 7/11/2008 | 4 | warts | redness, itching, swelling, pain. | Ive completed one treatment week, but it's been hard to walk for the last few days, i havent tried the neosporin that other people used, but i have spread preparation h over everything, which helps, along with taking it easy and some ibuprofin for the swelling. I think it'll be another week before i can get the last few that are left. My problem was that the Pharmacist Told me to put it around the warts on my good skin, to speed the process up, so i did. for 3 days. So now 3 days later my labia are swollen twice as big as normal, and i'm red and sore EVERYWHERE. I think it actually would be a great product if i hadnt listned to my pharmacist, and stuck with the directions in the box, because 95 percent are gone. That's cool. | F | 26 | 3 days | 7/3/2008 | 4 | HPV/AGW | burning swelling smell bleeding itching | I am on my 3rd week of using condylox the first week worked great, I had a bunch of warts around my anal region and all but 2 have gone. I think im doing something wrong though. The doctor told me I could use vaseline to prtect the healthy skin so I used A&D onitment. I have been having a hard time getting rid of the other 2 I wonder if it has anything to do with using the a&d ointment. my recommendation would be to use neosporin or a&d after the 3 day cycle. | M | 23 | 3 weeks | 6/20/2008 | 4 | Wart | Slight burning a few hours after the first day, which made me think the stuff was working. Also the skin around the area because extreemly rough and dry. | 3rd day of the rest period. First treatment went well i think. There is a rough sore over the area there was a wart, not sure if the wart is still under there tho, hopefully when the skin clears up its gone. | M | 22 | 3 times | 6/19/2008 | 5 | Warts | Burning, slight aftertaste of Juniper or Pine tree sap 30-minutes after application which is probably from the medication getting into the bloodstream and being picked up by the taste buds and olfactory sensors | I've had genital warts for about a year and tried many different medications - over-the-counter, Aldara, etc. Don't waste your money on over-the-counter or Aldara. The doctors bounced me around from doctor to doctor, and one even did a biopsy to check for cancer. It was obvious the outbreak was genital warts, but in my opinion, the doctors saw an opportunity to remove money from my wallet and my insurance company. Do not use Aldara - VERY expensive, and very ineffective. The last doctor finally reluctantly prescribed Condylox. He warmed me it would be painful. It can be painful, but it is not bad. You must be careful to not get the medication on uninfected skin - it will burn the skin. The treatment seems to kill skin cells, both infected, and non-infected if it contacts them. Follow the instructions - two treatments a day for three days, followed by four days of non-treatment. Wash and keep the area very clean. For me, by the third day of treatment the warts had turned to | M | 34 | 2 weeks | 6/14/2008 | 1 | hpv warts anal | OMG, I used this product for three days. Tried only to get the medicine on the warts but i guess that i didn't let it dry properly. On the 4th day, I started to get pain and then on the 5th day, got extreme swelling, redness and foul smell. I think that I had an infection. I went to the doctor and now have to soak and apply antibiotic lotion / cream. I have some blisters from it. If you use it. Be very careful, apply small amounts to your warts - and don't worry if it doesn't do anything - it's a cumulative effect. Anyone else have these problems? I guess the area is just sensitive. | M | 34 | 1 weeks | 6/11/2008 | 3 | Genital Warts | Well the burning irritation is right on the money, I have a lil bit of blood and some swelling. | I have a good maybe 8 - 10 warts around my anus. Thats a very difficult spot to treat im on day 1.5. I made the mistake of not letting it dry the first 2 times I applied it. That might be why I feel kinda chaffed. Its raw and slightly annoying. I have a 1.5 treatments left before the rest cycle I hope I see some results. | M | 23 | 1.5 days | 6/4/2008 | 5 | HPV | Itchy, burning, open sores | I completed the 3 day regimen than on the 5th day began applying neosporin to the sores- highly recommend doing so. Neosporin helped a great deal. I thought I would have scarring because the areas were so inflammed and painful but it completely healed. | F | 25 | 3 days | 5/28/2008 | 5 | Genital Warts | Burning, Peeling, Ulceration, Slight Bleeding | I was recently diagnosed with HPV/GW- I have on the base of penis and top of shaft. i was immediately given Condy and burned the 2 at the base. I will say the i have done 2 separate treatment weeks. the first upon initial diagnosis, and the second about a month later upon return. The sooner you use the gel on emerging bumps, the quicker it works and the less side effects you have. Also, it seems to limit the spread when applied early. I seem to be fortunate that this has been my only treatment option as it works. Also, i find that using neosporin (pain relief) works well, but also for the bumps on the shaft. . .using "nuskin". it is antibacterial and it forms a layer of skin over the wound durring the day. .yeah it stings but it works | M | 31 | 2 months | 5/22/2008 | 4 | Genital Warts | Burning, Itching, Soreness | I have had a few warts for about a year or so and finally decided to get treatment. My doctor gave me Condylox. I am currently in my first week of treatment. I am on the 2nd day of rest. I believe one of the very small ones came off today with a little sore underneath, nothing big. I have about 3 or 4 big ones that have since turned a blackish color, which makes me think that they will soon fall off, but they are very sore. I got some on regular skin and I'll tell you what, do NOT let that happen! It has burned the normal skin and is all red and has a white pussy look. That is the most painful part. I would say on a scale of 1-10 with pain, most of the time it is about a 3 but there are times, especially with the area of good skin that came in contact with it that it is about a 6. I am hoping that my next treatment week will get rid of the bigger ones for good. It looks really gross and I can't wait to be done with this. | M | 26 | 5 days | 5/22/2008 | 5 | HPV | Burning, Open Sores, Bleeding, Itching, Burning | Finally Something that works!! I have had HPV for about 4yrs now and it wont go away. I had a ton of warts, so my doc decided to try cryo..that shit hurts, then aldara..not worth it, and finally condylox...love it! The first treatment week got rid of most of them, but I had so many that I missed a few..but they should be gone by the second treatment. I will say that I'm glad I read this before starting the drug because neosporin cream has saved me big time! Condylox just basically eats them off..kind of like an acid. You get open sores for a while, but then they heal up nicely...NO SCARING! If you can tolerate pain for a while, this will work for you. I think its completely worth it!! | F | 24 | 3 days | 5/4/2008 | 5 | genital warts | BURNING, inflammation, irritation, sores | miracle worker. you really have to be patient and withstand the pain. after my first 3 days it became very painful to walk because of the open sores, but it's worth it. put some neosporin(with pain relief) on them and it makes the pain a lot more tolerable. i'm on my 3rd day of the "Rest" period and it still hurts pretty bad but most of my warts are already gone. i really hope they're gone before i have to start another treatment because i know it will hurt worse, but come on...its better than having nasty bumps on your vagina. | F | 19 | 3 days | 4/29/2008 | 5 | Genital Warts | Pain where applied and bleeding after 3rd day of application | Excellent medication! The pain just told me that it was killing the warts...good riddance. The skin looked really bad as it was healing like it would scar but it actually healed smoothly. I did 2 cycles. I have to wait a couple extra days to do a third cycle then I should be fine. It is a great product. | M | 30 | 14 days | 4/12/2008 | 4 | HPV/GW | burning, open sores, PAIN, inflammation, bleeding | horrible pain, make sure ya let it dry before ya move around or it will get on the surrounding skin and make the pain even worse. I work construction so moving around at work wearing safety gear was HORRIBLE it felt like it was ripping my skin everytime i moved and burned liked hell and i thought i had herpes cause the open sores. but its healing up now and all warts are gone i'm glad to say after 3 days of taking it. don't plan any physical activities for a week after you finish ya cycle. | M | 22 | 3 days | 3/19/2008 | 4 | Wart | Lots of burning on days 2 & 3. Lots. It definitely FEELS like its working. | This stuff worked for me. Keep in mind, it may take more than one cycle. In my case, I went in for chyrotherapy 3 times over 6 weeks to remove a large wart (about the diameter of a dime.) Chryotherapy managed to break it up alot. Condylox wiped out the stuff the deep freeze missed. By day 4 or 5, both treatments hurt the same amount. The wart was on the underside of the shaft of my penis. I used the gel for it. During the course of the day, the medication would come in contact with my scrotum. Irritated the healthy skin alot, so in subsequent courses, i protected the healthy skin with a band aid. | M | 40 | 3 days | 3/17/2008 | 5 | genital warts | intense pain!!!!!! I checked myself into the ER because it was eating through my skin getting infected. Ulcers/swelling were everywhere, I remember feeling like someone sanded all my skin down and initated rubbing hot pepper into the wounds. I could barely walk w/out toughing the raw skin. | seriously please don't get this medication on anything that is not wart tissue!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Don't experiment!!!!! it literally ate through the connection where the head connects to the shaft. I was able to pull the head off almost and see the smooth muscle that is underneath, not fun at all had. presently I am all scarred up. But I rather have a slight color problem than warts everywhere! I had about 10 tiny warts, after 1 treatment all were gone but 2. Waited 2 weeks for the rawness to heal and the second treatment cleared up the the last 2....now it is very smooth (not a lump or bump in sight just scar tissue) | M | 23 | 3 weeks | 3/13/2008 | 4 | Gential Warts | didn't noticed any pain till after the 4th day, couldn't move was in pain... | I did notice some improvement after the 3days on and 4days off yet it hasn't been a full treatment week yet most are dried to the point were they will fall off, But i did have a bunch so maybe a few more treatments will do the job since i had theses dam warts for over 6-7years tried everything and nothing worked till i read most of you guys comment on this site thank you very for showing a guy like me a great product, yes the solution but its doing the job 1000000000000times better than aldara and i had em frozen off as well... thank you again everyone.... | M | 29 | 3 days | 3/11/2008 | 4 | GW | severe pain on the treated area | By far this is the best product i had used i have a shyt load of warts around my penis and scrotum, and most are hardened up and drying out becoming black, i also tried everything out there to get rid of theses dam thing and read the results here which made me try this product out and i agree the pain after the treatment is the worst part, other than that the product is a must have... I may have to do another treatment week to make sure they all become dried out and blackened. | M | 29 | 3 days | 3/10/2008 | 2 | genital warts | warts turned a little red, didnt hurt though | fucken warts are pissing me off. second treatment week and they dont show any signs of leaving. im seriously comtemplating cutting my fucken penis off if they dont go away soon. | M | 21 | 2 weeks | 3/7/2008 | 3 | genital warts | HOLY HELL! make sure you follow the directions... this shit burns like fire. minor swelling, burning, cussing, swearing, and cursing god. | i used aldara for 4 months. nothing happened. no side effects, no burning, no difference in size, shape... NOTHING. I just finished my 3rd treatment day of Condylox (today being the 1st day without) and sweet jesus does it hurt. my warts are rather small, and clumped close together so it was hard not to get some on the surrounding skin. today i am red, raw and sore. walking hurts because my underwear are rubbing against my penis. i had to put on looser pants when i got home from work. they appear to be drying out and do look smaller, so hopefully, once the puffyness subsides i'll see some difference. i'm in it for the long haul tho, so week 2, 3, 4? bring it on. i want these fuckers gone! | M | 26 | 3 days | 2/14/2008 | 5 | HPV | INTENSE burning (especially after the 2nd usage), redness, soreness. It hurts the most if you get it on unaffected skin. Putting vaseline around he area BEFORE applying and being careful not to get any on the wart/warts prevents unnecessary pain in unaffected areas. After applying, the pain gradually decreased throughout the day. | I used this product about 7 months ago. I had 3 warts and this stuff got rid of all of them. I am very impressed with this product. It essentially gradually burned off my warts. I had wart recurrences when I tried to get warts to go away on their own, but since using this not ONE has resurfaced. Unfortunately though my partner who was once HPV free does now have warts. Just because warts aren't present the virus that causes them can still be transmitted. | F | 22 | 3 days | 2/12/2008 | 5 | GW / Anal / Peninal | Raw skin - burning, itching, PAIN | I had about 25-30 gw in the anal area - very hard to apply there and NOT get on reqular skin - I screwed up and got it on regular skin - It burns all the regular skin away - I did get rid of ALL GW in the anal area in one treatment - Now I am just waiting for all the raw skin to HEAL - very painful!!!!! | M | 23 | 3 days | 2/4/2008 | 3 | warts | I too just finished my first 3 days am now in my 4th day of treatment. I'm going through a bit of pain now (fairly painful) and some through the night last night (night 3). I did apply the gel a little bit beyond just the warts themselves (i have 6-7)... but i chose to do this. I've had these warts ONLY in the area between the ass and the testicles. Very hard to walk..ouch. | I've been treating these warts for 2 years now. I get em every few months. Went to dermatologists- froze, zapped with electricity, and even tried that crappy Aldara which did nothing but scar and discolor me (vitaligo) which i'm insanely upset at. Now i'm trying condolox- if it works, i'll be so happy. If anyone has any insight or similar contion, i'd welcome any help. I'll be posting my outcome in a few weeks. | M | 35 | 3 days | 1/16/2008 | 3 | genital warts | I just did one cycle, and found that I am in extreme pain. I know now after reading these comments that I messed up on the application, and did not just put it on the wart itself. I learned my lesson. I have tried the neosporene as an aide for the pain, but how long does it take for that pain to go away? I know everyone is different. My fear is that I have such raw skin that if I put more of the Condylox on it will cause other problems. Any help? Also, when the warts are tried should they appear black and simply wash off? | M | 29 | 3 days | 12/19/2007 | 4 | warts | burning after the 3rd day and it got on area around wart and is still dry and swollen almost a month later | After 3rd day the 3 warts were gone. 2 have since come back and am currently treating area again. If anyone knows when the swelling of the normal skin will go away please let me know. | M | 27 | 3 days | 11/18/2007 | 1 | genital warts | red sores. pain, discomfort. itching. | i used this stuff for like 2 months and used tho whole bottle and they still didnt go away. i did everything right and no results. this gel sucks. | M | 20 | 64 days | 11/15/2007 | 4 | HPV | Slight pain/burning. The worst for me was the smell. It has been about a week or so since I stopped using Condylox and there is still a HORRID smell. Did anyone else experience this? How long did it take for the smell to go away for you | Used once, warts gone in 3 days | F | 27 | 3 days | 11/6/2007 | 5 | HPV/ genital warts | Area beneath warts was sore after completion of dosage. Lasted little more than 24 hours and was manageable. I had small open sores where the warts fell off but they were not painful and healed within the day. | I used this exactly as prescribed(2 times a day for 3 days). In the first week all that was treated was removed. More budded out the next week and were gone only after 1 day of treatment. It is hard to apply because of the region and takes time to dry. Just be patient, because it works!! I did not experience severe burning. I assume this is because it never touched my healthy skin. I also gave it plenty of time to dry. So far no more have appeared. I expect more to come up and will treat them with condylox until they stop appearing. Keep your spirits up. This WILL go away and this does NOT define who you are! | F | 22 | 2 weeks | 11/3/2007 | 4 | HPV | Intense burning after the 3 day period and some bleeding | Be very careful about getting it on your other skin as I did. It was very difficult to determine and see where I was putting it on so I think I burned the surrounding skin. I do need to say it worked after just one treatment cycle!! So the pain now that it has gone away was worth it, but during the 3 to 4 days after the initial 3 day treatment was intense. Aldara did nothing and takes forever to see any results. My dr did not tell me to use neosporin but after reading it here I am so glad I did, it really helps speed up the healing. | F | 34 | 3 days | 10/25/2007 | 4 | HPV/genital warts | severe burning and itching, open sores, bleeding. | This is now my third time using condylox i have another comment on this page from less then a year ago 1/07. this time around its not as bad just sever itching so bad i cant sleep. what i found that helps me at work is neosporin the gel or cream with the pain relief. | F | 23 | 3 weeks | 10/1/2007 | 4 | Genital Warts | It stings a little and if you get it on any normal skin it can itch a little bit | DON"T GIVE UP! i went through two treatments and didn't see any difference at ALL and i was extremely upset. I think i might have been too anxious. my third treatment week, the little bitches started to disappear! i also want to say that if it's in a skin fold, "wait for it to dry" means wait quite some time. i kept thinking it was dry and letting the skin fold go and i kept burning my normal skin with the gel. also, if you just sit there and wait for it to dry it seems to work a lot quicker. | F | 21 | 27 days | 9/26/2007 | 3 | Anal Warts | I was not informed of the side effects of this drug. The burning is pretty painful. I'm not sure how it got to normal skins unless it spreads once it dries and I walk around. Very painful. Hopefully the burning will subside for the (4) day break. | M | 31 | 3 days | 9/20/2007 | 1 | GW | Excruciating pain!!! I just applied it on less than 5 minutes ago and F---!!!!!!!! How do you keep it off normal skin when you have to apply it on your scrotum? I don't even put much, but its got me walking like someones kicked me in the nuts due to the massacre it leaves behind. The burning effect is like nothing I have ever felt b4. This is my 3rd application and my last. I shouldn't have to fan my nuts and keep from screaming just to get a few warts off. I am so afraid of applying this gel again that I wont. I am not reliving that again. Seems like most people here are happy with this product. Good for them. | NEVER AGAIN | M | 26 | 3 days | 9/19/2007 | 4 | HPV | OUCH! Make SURE you use it as directed and ONLY ONLY ONLY put it on the bumps or warts. Hold any foreskin/labial skin AWAY from the medicine until it dries. After the 3 days on, it hurts a little, but it's the rubbing from underwear, pants, and running/walking that make it tender. | Ugh, HPV. It's embarassing in the first place. I had flat raised spots on the head of my penis, about 7-8. They didn't hurt, but who wants to pass on HPV or have a 'cootie cock?' So I got the medicine. First off, get the GENERIC. Condylox is pricy. I got it from the internet, but you can shop around online at Walgreens.com, etc to find the lowest price. Don't freak out when it works...it's necrotizing, ie: it kills the tissue you apply it to. Generally I see very little, but a couple of the raised spots are now kinda black and scabbing...another slight ouch. This medicine clearly works, tho! And don't be embarassed...spread the word! Over 75% of the sexually active population has been exposed to HPV, and over 50% of us have it. | M | 43 | 3 days | 6/28/2007 | 5 | HPV | Applied and within 3 day they were gone... i been suffering for 2 years with GW and my dr. decided to just prescribe this to me... im still pissed at him.. i used Aldara and was a horror show.. if you are ever prescribed aldara DO NOT TAKE IT.. Condylox definately worked for me... | Its gel and not cream.. gel is much better to apply then the cream like aldara cause cream seem to go all over the place when you move.. the gel will dry up and stay in the spot you treat | F | 32 | 4 days | 6/24/2007 | 5 | Genital warts | Some slight discomfort the first couple times I used it, because I kept getting it on normal skin, but once I got the hang of it there was only a slight tingling, not uncomfortable at all. USE IT AS RECOMMENDED by your physician and with the gel itself! I used it EXACTLY as recommended by my doc and on the box: 4 days on, 3 days off before starting again. Minimal side effects and discomfort when you use it correctly! | I had 6 very small warts, one slightly larger. After the first day, they were already looking diminished. By the 4th day I almost couldn't see where to put it! Only two have come back, the larger one, and one that was next to it, and they are still much smaller than before the first treatment. It is just amazing to feel smooth skin where there were ugly bumps before. Definitely a success story with Condylox. | F | 23 | 4 days | 5/31/2007 | 5 | Anal Warts | After applying Condylox, the first cycle, I was experienced burning, sharp pain and some discharge. I had about 20 small warts and a few larger ones. I was unable to target the small ones due to difficulty reaching the anal area. I applied the soultion on normal skin over the three day period, which is where I experienced rawness and pain. I am currently on the second phase, clearing up the ones which did not fully disappear. I find that there is swelling which I may have confused as warts prior to the second stage. I waited five and a half days to begin the second stage and swelling cleared. Very effective. | Condylox worked great for me. It cleared about 95% of my warts after the first stage. I am working on my second stage and it looks better everyday. Remember to be patient and use care when applying the product. I believe that the pain associated with this treatment is due to its application on normal skin, as it seems to deteriorate it. The discomfort I felt was worth it. You can also use neosporin after the 3 day application period to ease recovery. | M | 20 | 10 days | 5/19/2007 | 5 | Anal Warts | Side effects included burning, bleeding and discomfort. | Used Aldara before with no avail. I had 6 anal warts and after the first treatment of Condylox. All of them were gone. I highly recommend this product. Be careful when applying. Apply only to warts. As soon as your 3 days are up immediately apply petroleum jelly and polysporin to areas. The wart area will be burned. This will help ease the pain and will heal area quicker. | M | 36 | 1 weeks | 5/3/2007 | 4 | Genital warts | Some mild pain -- perhaps better described as an itch rather than pain. I really have to wonder if the raters describing excruciating pain were using it properly. You apply the gel only to the warts, and should be careful to avoid getting it on normal skin. It will burn normal skin. | In the past I had warts treated with electrocautery, but that was an extremely unpleasant experience. The warts came back in a few weeks, and I wanted to try something different. This is much better than the surgery, in my opinion. I did one "treatment week," and managed to remove all but the largest of my warts. That one then grew to be even larger than it was before, so I've done another week of the stuff. I'm going to follow up with another week just to make sure that it's gone. Overall I would absolutely recommend this. | M | 27 | 2 months | 5/2/2007 | 4 | GW | redness that lasted for about 10 days, mild irritation. | Works pretty well, but gets a 4 because it takes awhile and has minor side effects... | M | 24 | 6 days | 4/25/2007 | 3 | hpv | burning. intense pain. open sores. very alarming. using it for a second time, put it on for 6 days straight, all over, terrible inflamation and sores. totally freaked out. | 6 days | 4/20/2007 | 4 | HPV - Genital Warts | Burning sensation in the affected area. To measure the pain, I would say it was about a 4 out of 10. That's it! | Much better than Aldara cream which was ineffective even after weeks of use in my case. I've used Condylox for one full-week cycle and my warts are disappearing. It's an amazing feeling when they start to go away. I'm so happy there's finally a drug that actually works in clearing HPV warts. Oh and by the way, before I started Condylox, I also had them frozen first. This really helps if you have a lot of warts like I did. | M | 24 | 3 days | 4/18/2007 | 5 | Genital Warts | Burning sensation, particularly on any surrounding unaffected skin; increasing soreness over three day treatment. | I had 3 small warts near the opening to my vagina. They were gone within 3 days; they turned white and after the 3rd day could be wiped off or scraped off the skin. I have been checking every week since November for them. It is now April. In January I noticed one very tiny wart had reappeared, but it disappeared after one application and I have experienced nothing since. I'm hoping it stays that way; after another year I'm going to assume I'm cured. | F | 26 | 3 days | 4/6/2007 | 4 | HPV | Incredible soreness, swelling, burning and some bleeding. I have an unusually high threshold for pain but this put me way over my tolerance level. I used it for one treatment week and I'm not certain the warts are gone because the treated area is so raw I can't tell. If they're gone, then it was worth it - if I have to do another week then I'm not certain. This site really helped me know that I'm not alone in this situation. | If the warts are not gone after the first treatment I might ask the doctor about cutting them off. | F | 56 | 3 days | 2/12/2007 | 4 | Genital Warts | Burning, soreness and inflamation. I've been off condylox for 3 days and the worst day was the second day I was off of the medicine. I couldn't sit down in my car to drive to work, I walked like a duck because it killed me to walk normally. I've never been in this bad of pain. The medication definately worked but it continues to put me in pain now on the third day. I'm hoping things will get better soon otherwise I will be calling my doctor to get some kind of medication for pain. | F | 19 | 3 days | 1/24/2007 | 4 | genital warts | the pain was horrible, soreness, burning everything...but the worst for me is the smell. its horrid, like rancid horribleness it makes my underwear stink. did anyone else have this side effect? your skin gets white like after you take off a bandaide..and then it reeks! | this is my second time using condylox. i used aladara in between but it never made the warts even buidge a bit. condylox works but its unbelieveable hell!! | F | 22 | 3 days | 1/17/2007 | 5 | Genital Warts | There was slight soreness on the warts where I applied condylox. The slight pain did stop after the 2nd day of not using it. There was no blistering...or bleeding.. | This is the best to clear warts. I highly recomend it. I had 2 large warts and just completed my first week cycle...they are just about gone now. They scab up and turn a crusty brown..and within a week they came off....now there are only two tiny bumps where they were...I expect this to be gone after this week. | M | 38 | 3 days | 12/20/2006 | 4 | 2 genital warts on vulva | I didn't wait one time for the solution to dry, and it spread and caused swelling, open sores and was so painful I had to take vicodin. Any one else expereince an area by the wart that got inflamed and blistered? Neosporin does help after the 3 days, it makes it bearable. Hope scar tissue is not left | F | 30 | 3 days | 11/9/2006 |
