[|AI|]  Hello dear, Thank you for your contact to Chat Doctor. I read and understand your concern. I am Chat Doctor answering your concern. Warts in genital area is STDs or sexually transmitted disease. It causes infection via sex. If the opposite partner has infection of HPV virus than it can transmit to you. Yes, your doctors is right, and you should take imiquimod. There are some side effects of the imiquimod, but you should take it till you are cured. Other STDs are usually associated with it. Like HIV, syphilis and others so testing of it and exclusion of it should be done. You should avoid sex with partner until you are cured. If your partner is affected than you should both take the treatment. There are other methods of treatment also available, but it will be clinically evaluated. Modalities are phenolic cauterization, laser excision, cold gas excision and others. But each method should be applied after your proper clinical evaluation. So you should ask your doctors for other therapies. I will be happy to answer your further concern on bit.ly/ Chat Doctor. Thank you, ChatDoctorInfectious diseases specialist, ChatDoctor.
