Wart removal on cheek

2022-03-26 18:38:05
I have a small growth on my skin on cheek. The doctor described it as filiform wart. I learnt that its caused by HPV. Is it related to STD? I am concerned as I am not active ..or is it just general issue? How to get rid of it Is any medicine available for it or just cautery is the available option?

Radio frequency cautery can help clear the existing ones. Retinol preparations used judiciously can help as well. Imiquimod solution Is another option. U Will require a clear explanation on the usage of these products.
