| 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 | 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 f-ers 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 |
