I recently was diagnosed with external genital warts. I know I have to get them taken care of, because they're starting to spread, but I am so so scared of the pain. My doctor wants to use liquid nitrogen (cryogenic freezing I think it's called?), but i've heard that this is quite painful. Has anyone experieced this, and if so, was it very painful or tolerable or not painful at all? What other methods are available, and what are their pain factors? I realize that pain should not be the hugest factor in my treatment, and that I should focus more on the fact that they'll be gone rather than how it feels, but I really have difficulty dealing with pain. Please help me to find the least painful method available! Or at least let me know if the nitrogen freezing was painful for you, and to what extreme.
Thanks!
