    Is it normal for genital warts to turn yellowish after treatment?
    I'm 30 years old and have had HPV for almost 2 years. I've gone to my doctor and he treats my gw with this brown stuff that I wash off later at home. Two days ago I had another treatment and today my vagina hurts real bad and my warts look yellowish. Is that normal? Because they've always turned white and hard prior treatments. Or is this an infection? Thank you

    I've never heard of this kind of treatment. Can you not take acyclovir? That is an oral medication for genital warts.

    I've tried aldara in the past but it hurts too much and itches a lot. The stuff my doctor uses seems to be helping, but for some reason this time around.. my body's having a adverse reaction to this treatment. But why would they be turning yellow?

    I can't answer that because I don't know what the doctor is using. You haven't given me the name of the medication. I would need that to give you an accurate answer.
