Hi misswannaknow,

Thank you for your post and welcome! Have you had unprotected sex to think that you may have an STD? The warts can be treated but the virus will remain in your body. Burning or Freezing of the warts is usually only done if you are unresponsive to topical treatment. Meaning: the doctor will prescribe an ointment and if your warts don't go away with a few different ointments then they will consider cryosurgery or laser treatment.

Here is all the information you need to know about Genital Warts and how they are treated:
