It depends on how severe they are. Some will go away on their own with time, some go away with topical medication (creams and/or ointments), while others need to be removed by burning or freezing them off.
If you have them you really should see a doctor about it. They would know what is best for you.
I had genital warts about 8 months ago. My doctor prescribed me Aldara cream. It took about a month for them to fully go away but it was worth it in the long run. I saw burning and freezing sort of as a last resort. Talk to your doctor about it. Good luck!

Look up HPV. It causes genital warts. Around 88% of sexually active people have it. Chances are if you have ever had unprotected sex you have it. THere is no cure for this. THe only thing to get rid of the warts is to let them go away on there own or have them frozen off.Which I hear is painful.

doctors prescribe Aldara and it works. Genetial warts comes and goes atleast twice in a year ( just my opinion, might vary also) and i heard for some people it goes off after the second time. Try not to have any sexual activity for atleast a year and use condoms if you do so, that was what the doctor will advice. It should go if you stay away from sex for a while atleast if you want to see better results.

You should ask your doctor.
it will be either aldara or physiacl removal.
Treatment
Your doctor may prescribe some topical applications to you for treating the warts. If the problem is severe or if you do not respond to the topicals, the doctor may remove the warts using any one of the following: cryotherapy with liquid nitrogen, electrocautery, laser or surgical excision. The decision about which medicine is to be used or whether surgery is needed should be left to the doctor's judgment.

u have to wait it out. it's a virus and it will run it's course and be gone between 6-24 months. u really need to see a dr to make sure it's gone because it can go dormant instead or clearing your system, but most bodies fight it off, just not all bodies can. there's only treatments to take the warts off, nothing to cure them.

Go to your doctor. They'll prescribe you something like ALDARA.
That's what I was prescribed a week ago so I'm not sure how great it will be or not but it's better than just waiting to see if they'll clear up by themselves
It's supposed to clear up or atleast get much better within a few weeks. It really depends on how each person's body reacts to it.
Just make sure you are treated for it so it doesn't get worse, or take months and months to clear up.
