Q. Hello! I have HPV and one big genital wart, I haven’t treated them because I’m scheduled to do chryoterapy next month, I haven’t had any discomfort from it, but yesterday I started feeling very itchy, what are the symptoms to a vaginal infection? Do they have something to do with the HPV?

A. Genital warts can be itchy.  Itching can also be a sign of vaginal infection.  Symptoms of vaginal infection can also include abnormal vaginal discharge, change in odor or texture of vaginal discharge. If you believe you may have an infection schedule an appointment with your primary care provider or at Corner Health Center.
