Genital warts are caused by HPV and transmitted by sexual contact. These painless warts occur in the urogenital, perineal, or anal areas and may be internal or external. Adolescent or young adult women are at greatest risk; the warts may predispose them to development of cervical cancer. While warts may be surgically removed, surgery does not cure the condition. A topical solution may be prescribed.
