 2  Anal warts Horribe burning pain, very raw skin, bad smell, oozing I wish I would have taken the warnings I read here more seriously. Shifting in my seat feels like I'm sitting on fiery knives, and there is a definite smell of... rot? Warts not embarassing enough? Even on my "recovery days" it's difficult to go to work, and my underwear is streaked with the ruin of my anus and the attendant smell you'd expect. I will not be continuing- though most warts are gone, this is a viable torture method. I'll get the rest some other way. M 32 2 weeks

 2  GWs on penis Had about 10 gws on a dime-sized area on one side of penis. Used Condyline as prescribed (maybe 1-2 extra doses as I might have lost track). At the very end of the 3 days the dime-sized area went from a bit red to deep red and flaking. Now I'm 3 days into the "off" period and I have a dime-sized chemical burn that I'm really worried will stay like that. It seems to have taken care of (or seriously shrunk) the warts but the damage looks a lot worse. Never had pain, fortunately... It seems to go deep into the skin and works its way out. Use only on the warts themselves and don't let it get rubbed around by your underwear etc. I would say if you have several warts in a cluster try doing 1-2 at a time over several weeks. M 32 3 days

 2  Warts I started using Condyline as prescribed without any warning about possible side effects. Some warts are not very easy for me to see so I had to apply the solution a bit randomly. Yesterday it was the third day of treatment and I started to feel quite a bit of pain. Today was the first day off and the burning is unbearable, area around the warts turned completely white and it smells quite bad, I cannot even walk. Not even sure if any of the wart is gone because it is a mess down there, not even sure what I can do to fix the skin now Horribly painful F 32 4 days

 1  Genital wart Five years ago was prescribed podiflox, worked well one treatment. Recently prescribed condylox gel,same active ingredient different catalyst. Horrible open raw sore on surrounding skin has developed and as you can imagine hurts. My advice to anybody using this or soon to use this be very cautious about letting it touch surrounding skin. This gel version gets a double thumbs down as the experience i had the first time was soo much better.. podiflox liquid and a qtip one application warts dryed up and gone like a scab about 4 days later, condylox gel two applications per day for 3 days and 4 days off.. im in the second day of 4 days off and not impressed M 32 3 days

 4  Genital Warts Same side effects most people feel. Severe burning immediately after putting on. Then the rest of the first day goes normal after the burn wears off. It's the second day that everything gets very raw and irritated. I have never been able to use this product for 3 days in a row because of the pain. But it does make a significant difference in the warts. I am going this week to the urologist to get them either lasered or frozen or whatever it is that they do the warts. He just wanted me to use this stuff to shrink the warts as much as possible before he got to them. M 33 2 days

 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

 4  HPV Very minor soreness, no pain whatsoever. I've been struggling with this condition for a few years now. I've had multiple visits to the dermatologist for freezing (which has had limited results), and was prescribed Aldara which did absolutely nothing for me. Condylox has so far been the most successful treatment. I'm on week 3 now and my smaller warts have shrunk in half. I have a cluster about the size of a penny on my waist line (which had previously been misdiagnosed by my doctor), and it's receding each week. I don't feel I'll be completely rid of them by the end of 4 weeks so I may have to switch back to regular cryo/freezing visits to finish them off. I've seen others' experiences stating that they were in a lot of pain but the treatment seemed to work very quickly for them. I have absolutely no pain but my progress seems to be slower. Maybe there's a correlation there. Ultimately this treatment works for me but as I've learned, the preferred treatment varies from person to person, so don't be discouraged if your mileage varies.

 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

 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

 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

 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

 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

 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.

 4  Anal Warts Ok...I'm a guy and I'm on my last rest day of my first cycle with condylox.... Here's the good, the bad, and the ugly... the good is that the warts are gone.... The bad is that you must must must must must only put it on the warts themselves and due to the location most people get warts it's nearly impossible to do...which leads me to the ugly... The ugly....While your warts will be gone so will most of the skin and flesh from that area. It will look like your skin has been completely eating through!! And the pain!?!?! the pain is unlike anything I can put into words but I will try...Imagine small, sandy, prickly, niddles rubbing your skin, causing ithching and burning and sharp pains mixed with dull pains mixed with swelling, raw red skin, bright red skin....puss, and blood. This gel is STRONG!!! I'm on my 4th rest day and dammit I will go into a 5th and 6th and 7th day of rest. It looks like the warts i had are completely gone but so is the skin!! I won't be using t M 35 3 days

 3  GQ over a month ago i noticed a bump on my anal area, thought it was hemorroid and thought it would go away. but notice more blood when i wiped so i started using the prep h suppository 3 weeks later. dont know if its common or if i used it wrong but when i insert it,hours later i can feel my ass getting wet. when i wiped it i see some yellowish stain on the toilet paper which i assume was the suppository. after using it for 1 week, i noticed that bump became a big cluster and several small bumps appeared. did more research and found out it was GW. i dont know if the suppository residue caused the warts to spread but went to the doc and they prescriped podofolix. the doc said to apply to the warts twice a day for 3 days and rest for 5. omg, if only the dr. had told me its a strong acid and to make sure to only apply to the wart and let them dry! 1st day of using it, no pain. 2nd day started feeling a little sting and burn for about 5 sec. 3rd day it was painful. 1st resting day it hur make sure u apply only a small amount on the wart only! otherwise you will pay for it. you been warned M 35 3 days
