Genital warts (condyloma acuminata or genital warts, anal warts and anogenital warts) is a sexually transmitted disease is a highly contagious disease caused by several sub-types of human papilloma virus (HPV). It spreads through direct contact with skin to skin contact during oral, genital or anal sex with an infected partner. Warts are most easily recognized symptoms of genital HPV infection, while types 6 and 11 account for 90% of cases genital warts. While HPV infection is estimated that only a "small" (between 1% and 5%) genital warts development, the infection can still spread the virus. Other types of HPV also cause cervical cancer and rectal cancer is the most probable, but it is important to stress that the type of HPV that cause genital warts is not the same as the one that causes genital or anal spreading Whenever cancer.HPV observed in some studies 27% of all sexual active people, increasing to 45% between the ages of 14 and 19.
Signs and symptoms genital warts.
Genital warts often occur in groups and can be very small or may extend to larger masses in the genital or penis. In some cases they look like little rods. In women, occur inside and outside the vagina, the opening (cervix) in the stomach (uterus), or around (or in) the buttocks. They have to do with the common man, but symptoms may be less obvious. Currently, they are usually seen at the end of the penis. Can also be found on the shaft of the penis, scrotum, or around (or in) the anus. On rare occasions, genital warts can also develop in the mouth or throat of someone who has oral sex with infected [citation needed] people.
Viral particles can penetrate the skin and mucous membranes through microscopic abrasions in the genital area that occurs during sexual activity. Once cells are invaded by HPV, a latency (quiet) period of months or years (decades) may occur. HPV can persist for several years without symptoms. Having sex with a partner that latent infection by HPV and showed no outward symptoms still leaves one vulnerable to infection. If someone has unprotected sex with an infected partner, with the possibility of 70% are also infected. The immune system is finally clean up the virus by interleukins, interferons hire, slow viral replication.
