Condyloma is, in fact, a skin lesion, which appears irregularly on male and female genitalia, or alternately, around the anus, lower stomach and crotch.

Infection occurs during direct skin contact with infected skin, usually during sexual intercourse.

The cause for these condylomas is the Human Papillomavirus. The lesions may appear on the skin between several days and several months from the actual infection day.

Symptoms and diagnosis:

The main symptom is the irregular appearance of roughly textured lesions on the skin in the area of the genitalia or anus, lower stomach and crotch.

Sometimes the appearance of condyloma warts is accompanied by a stinging sensation, yet they do not cause any itching or pain.

The diagnosis of this phenomenon is made during a physical exam conducted by an experienced dermatologist, and it usually doesn’t require a complex examination that requires taking a biopsy.

What is Human Papillomavirus?

Human Papillomavirus (HPV) belongs to a group of more than 200 different types of viruses, while less than half of them spread during sexual intercourse.

As opposed to other STDs, the virus is not spread through the semen fluid or exposure to an infected person’s blood, but by direct contact with an infected person’s skin, even if there are no external symptoms, such as the condyloma wart.

In most cases, the body overcomes the virus on its own. In the rare cases that the body can’t overcome the virus on its own, a cancerous tumor may develop in the genitals area and the colon.

Infection of HPV

Every year, millions of people around the world get infected with HPV.

To be precise, actually, four fifths of the world’s population will catch HPV by the time they’re 50.

Infection takes place by contact with infected skin, and the infection can take place even if there are no external signs for the presence of the virus.

Only one tenth of those infected with Papillomavirus will also develop condyloma warts.

How to avoid HPV infection?

It is possible to contract HPV by conducting sexual intercourse with a person carrying the virus.

Please note that most people don’t even know they have been infected with HPV, since there is no clinical evidence of infection.

The only way to completely avoid infection with HPV is to avoid sex with carriers of the virus, or coming in direct contact with infected skin areas. Using a condom also doesn’t guarantee that the virus won’t pass with direct contact.
