For rectal warts (caused by human papillomavirus), there are several treatment methods.
One option is topical medications. Some antiviral creams can be applied to the affected area in the rectum. However, this might be less effective for larger or more extensive warts.
Cryotherapy is also used. Liquid nitrogen is applied to freeze the warts, which causes them to die and fall off.
Another approach is surgical removal. This can be more effective for larger or stubborn warts. Electrosurgery or laser surgery can also be considered to precisely remove the warts.
It's important to note that in addition to local treatment, strengthening the immune system is crucial. A healthy lifestyle with balanced diet and regular exercise can help the body fight the virus and prevent recurrence. And sexual partners should also be examined and treated if necessary.
