What are anal warts?
Anal warts, also known as condyloma acuminata, are a type of sexually transmitted infection caused by certain strains of the human papillomavirus (HPV). These warts can appear around and inside the anus and cause discomfort, itching, and pain.
Causes and symptoms of anal warts
Anal warts are primarily caused by HPV types 6 and 11 and are transmitted through intercourse, vaginal, or oral sex. Warts appear as small, flesh-colored or pink, raised spots that may occur singly or in clusters.
