Cryotherapy and Aldara (immiquimod) works directly on genital warts. They are ineffective against cancerous cells. Aldara is typically recommended for warts, but cryotherapy administered by a doctor may be necessary if it doesn’t go away with Aldara.

HPV and its variants are the viruses that causes warts and cervical cancer. The immune system typically gets rid of it if it can. Vaccination is usually taken before the first sexual intercourse as HPV is sexually transmitted or if you have a good immune system and less than 26.
