Worse Before Better - Aldara + Cryotherapy

For the past three weeks I have been using Aldara. I also get cryotherapy (liquid nitrogen) every 3 weeks. I have been doing cryotherapy for two months now. It seems that small little warts will start up a little bit away from the original area where the virus first manifested itself and where i am being treated. My case started right at the base of my penis. The warts have always been small just slightly raised above the skin. What is going on here? I also have some redness around the area where Aldara is being used. Does it get worse before it gets better? Is it normal for new warts to pop up in a different area? What is going on here? I would just like to know if I'm doing all I can do? Ya ya and also doing tee tree oil every morning.

Unfortunately even doctors know little
about HPV - meaning warts in general.
Medical science have neglected to
invest money in research in this field
because it was deemed non-lucrative.

Anway because they don't know how to
cure warts, they either burn them off
or put poison on them or try to set
your immune system against them. It
works wonderfully for some and for
others nothing helps...hope you're in
the former category. Good luck.

The redness, itching, swelling sucks
but I think it means that the Aldara is
working in that area. The places where
the redness came where the places where
the warts seemed to go away the fastest
although I was uncomfortable as hell.
Dr. said it was okay to skip a dosage
here and there to ease it.

Common people. Give me some real live
feedback? How was it for you? You
guys are talking in theory. What have
been your experiences? Does it
normally just get worse and worse
until your whole genital area is
literally covered in clusters and
that's all you see or is it more
cyclicle?

I've only been on the Aldara for a few
months now and it seem to be working.
New warts may pop up in other spots so
I just start applying there as well.
Redness and itching are bad but what
can ya do. Not all of the warts go
away as quick and there are a few
stubborn ones as well. But for the
most part it works just the side
effects in that area suck.
