| 3 | anal warts | intense burning and sharp pain, discoloration of skin and a strong odor. | well, i got what appeared to be and felt like a hemorrhoid about two months ago on the right side of my anus. after a month of treatment as a hemorrhoid, i noticed it just getting worse. turns out that when i got pregnant my immune system weakened and i had my first HPV outbreak. i'm going to guess that the dirty idiot i slept with six months before gave it to me (i am very bitter). before going to my OB i tried ACV and hoooooly crap did that hurt. it just made the area red and inflamed and was unbearable. four days ago, i went to my PC doctor and she told me that i had an anal wart (grew to about 2cm) and referred me to a gastroenterologist. she also wrote me a prescription for condylox and told me to use it until gastro appointment next week. the first day, i applied it liberally to only the affected area. i had immediate burning sensations but nothing too serious. applied it a second time and went to sleep. second day, entire wart was enlarged and white- totally tender to the touch and already causing great discomfort. applied it a fourth time and couldn't even sleep it hurt so bad. today, day three, I woke up and the area was very dry and brittle. the medicine must been working, but i am in a world of pain. not even applying it a sixth time tonight because it's just unbearable. not even going to bother with it on the little warts surrounding because i'm not putting this shit on any more of my body. i will be posting a final review but right now i'm so glad i found this fo | F | 20 | 3 days | 10/21/2016 | 3 | anal warts | intense burning and sharp pain, discoloration of skin and a strong odor. | well, i got what appeared to be and felt like a hemorrhoid about two months ago on the right side of my anus. after a month of treatment as a hemorrhoid, i noticed it just getting worse. turns out that when i got pregnant my immune system weakened and i had my first HPV outbreak. i'm going to guess that the dirty idiot i slept with six months before gave it to me (i am very bitter). before going to my OB i tried ACV and hoooooly crap did that hurt. it just made the area red and inflamed and was unbearable. four days ago, i went to my PC doctor and she told me that i had an anal wart (grew to about 2cm) and referred me to a gastroenterologist. she also wrote me a prescription for condylox and told me to use it until gastro appointment next week. the first day, i applied it liberally to only the affected area. i had immediate burning sensations but nothing too serious. applied it a second time and went to sleep. second day, entire wart was enlarged and white- totally tender to the touch and already causing great discomfort. applied it a fourth time and couldn't even sleep it hurt so bad. today, day three, I woke up and the area was very dry and brittle. the medicine must been working, but i am in a world of pain. not even applying it a sixth time tonight because it's just unbearable. not even going to bother with it on the little warts surrounding because i'm not putting this shit on any more of my body. i will be posting a final review but right now i'm so glad i found this fo | F | 20 | 3 days | 10/21/2016 | 3 | hvp bumbs | So much pain! | It didn't hurt the days I was applying it...a little burning but nothing I couldn't handle. I only used it for 2 days because my warts turned white and it was becoming painful. As the days went on it became more and more painful. I didn't know about letting it dry..so I think it spread all over. I have spots where the gel ate through my skin. this has been the most painful experience of my life. It hurt to walk, sit, move. It was unbearable. The only relief I found was taking a bath and that was only temporary. The pain has eased a little since. Its been 8 days now since I used the gel and my wounds have not healed yet. Its so uncomfortable and burns when I pee and so painful to wipe. As far as I can tell my warts fell off, but the area is so swollen and covered with open sores, it's kinda hard to tell for sure. I will never use this again. The pain is unimaginable. | F | 27 | 2 days | 11/7/2015 | 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 | 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 | 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 | 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 | 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 | 3 | gw | Light brunin itchness raw. I'm on my thrid day n my wart look white I'm hopein will b gone on my off days ugh I hate dis why me | F | 21 | 3 days 2x day | 4/28/2012 | 3 | Anogenital warts | Holy hell! About to take my 5th dose (6 doses required each three-day round of treatment). This is my first experience with anal warts. I am laying in bed as I type this cringing from the burning, stinging pain around my rectum. The whole area is red and raw and wiping after a bowel movement makes me want to cry. And passing gas. Never thought THAT could hurt. Anyways, Because of the position of the warts around my anus, its difficult to see well enough to apply only to the warts, so a few times I have just taken a small amount and smeared it over the entire affected area. The only improvement I see so far is that some of the warts are getting a black spot so I hope that means they are necrotizing. I am going to look up home remedies for the relief of burned skin because the pain is constant and bothersome. | F | 31 | 2 days 0.5% | 8/18/2012 | 3 | HPV anal warts | I had two patches on either side of my anus with random small ones surrounding. Was prescribed Condylox, I am on day 3 and have only noticed slight pain when first applied...I am trying not to get too discouraged. I have only noticed a slight change in the color of the warts. Hoping to see more improvement. | F | 25 | 3 days | 2/3/2013 | 3 | genital warts | wow.. burning, itching.. very intense!!! i was not warned about these side effects by my doctor, and i too experienced the most awful pain ever!!! i cried every time i used it after the first day. what's worse, is there is nothing to ease the pain. you have to walk around with a sore, itchy gential area. by day 3, i could no longer take the pain. when i wiped after peeing, there were blood spots.. | it seems to be working.. but i dont believe this is for internal use on females.. i couldnt imagine that pain!!! | F | 22 | 3 days | 2/14/2006 | 3 | Hpv | Burning, itching, rotting flesh smell | I was diagnosed with HPV a few months ago, found out when I noticed some fleshy like mounds poping up in places they shouldnt be. Went to one doctor tried Aldara, that was horrible and unbearable that medicine affected EVERYTHING!!! Condylox on the other hand, does burn the effected area but doesnt get everywhere if you apply it with caution. By the end of day two, I noticed a difference in my warts. They were turning white and comming off, which was scary at first like a zombie film. But over all I see results in this product, as long as you dont smoke. That was my mistake in the healing process, I still had some bad habits, that was slowing down the healing process. | F | 24 | 3 days 2X day | 5/11/2010 | 3 | Genital Warts | Swelling, burning (especially when wiping), slight bleeding | I had about 6-7 one lg one one medium and the rest small... I do not understand how ppl keep saying to not get this gel on healthy skin... with extremely small warts it is impossible not to! However the results seem to be worth the pain. None are gone, I wish they were but the ones that can be felt are noticably smaller. How are women seeing them? I don't understand lol I wish I can see down there to see what the heck is going on ne us girls are going in blind which also leads to this medicine going on to healthy areas of skin :/ .. One thing I can suggest is not to use too much and dry with a hair dryer before and after application. This is my third day on my first cycle so hopefully I see more results soon | F | 24 | 3 days .5% 2X day | 9/18/2011 | 2 | GW | DO NOT, REPEAT..DO NOT PUT ON HEALTHY SKLIN :( | F | 20 | 0.5 2X day | 10/21/2011 | 2 | Genital Wart | Burning, discoloration, and burning flesh smell. | Due to the region of my warts, having them surgically removed is not an option. Therefore, the only means of their removal is through Condylox, which I absolutely HATE! I've had to use it so much, that I learned all of the tricks. You have to be really careful that you apply it only to the warts; if you get it on normal skin, it will literally erode your skin. Also, you really have to let the gel dry on the warts, for about 5 minutes, before you move around or put underwear on. If you don't, the gel will transfer onto healthy skin, and cause serious pain. Also, put Vaseline on the area after it has completely dried to avoid irritation. Using Condylox is painful, even if you apply it carefully to the affected area; stay away from thongs! Personally, I feel the worst side affect is the smell from the dying flesh, so gross! | F | 25 | 8 weeks 30 2X day | 3/31/2010 | 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 | 2 | genital warts | Itching, burning, slight bleeding. | I just completed my third week of treatment with condylox gel and not one wart has has gotten smaller or gone away! I understand the gel can be used up to four weeks, but I have a feeling it's not going to work. I experienced awful burning, itching and slight bleeding. I also noticed the treated area turned white during and 1 or 2 days after treatment. I used aldara before and recommend it 100% over condylox gel. My warts went away within 2 treatment weeks and I didn't experience any side effects. | F | 23 | 3 weeks | 6/10/2006 | 2 | HPV Genital warts | Once being prescribed then gel I was happy to think the warts could just be a problem I could easily change. The gel once applied feels like a acid burning through my flesh and i let my boyfriend apply it and he held me while balled my eyes out because I felt as if my vagina was going to completely fall off. I have warts on my clitorios, both labia and the foreskin between the vagina and anus. I've heard too many negative reviews and I'm beginning to question if I was just giving a $100 creme that causes excurtitaing pain and complete discomfort. Sitting, walking, wiping, and anything causing movement down there cause irritation and sometimes I can feel the warts popping but they have became flatten, less white and more yellow. Before using this drug PLEASE CHECK WITH YOUR DOCTOR FOR ANOTHER METHOD OR PROCEDURE | Destin butt paste (baby aisle) and neosporin help a lot with irritation and soothing the discomfort | F | 19 | 2 days NA | 10/4/2016 | 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 |
