Question:
How is HPV in the mouth treated?
|
HPV in the mouth is similar to other locations but with more limited treatment options - surgical removal, cryotherapy, interferon alpha. Oral warts cannot be treated with some of the more popular topical remedies like Podophyllin or Aldara.

Here are all of the pictures I have found on the internet of oral warts and/or oral HPV. I hope they help answer some of your questions. Remember, there are many “normal” bumps in the oral cavity, but paranoia can really take a toll on you if you don’t know what you’re looking at. Just hi-lite one address at a time and copy and paste it into your web address box. If you have any questions or if you would like to email me please do not hesitate. I will help as much as I can, and I will be glad to do it. My email address is eternaldevotion1@aol.com. I look forward to hearing from you.

I had a wart on my uvula (the punching bag like thing that hands in the back of your throat. The doctor snipped it off with a special tool. Very uncomfortable procedure given the location of the wart, but it was over in a second. The healing was painful and I needed a strong numbing gargle to get through it.
