I was diagnosed a year ago with HPV with the high risk types. I have subsequently had a second pap smear and it has come back within normal range. My GYN has stated that if I am able to have three more tests done every six months and they come back with normal range, than I can consider myself clear. However, he said that I was always be HPV positive.

My question is this: about four months ago I noticed a califlower growth on my upper leg near my genital area. It first appeared as a growth, grey in color and then became flesh colored. My doctor removed it by freezing it off. It seemed strange at the time, it didn't even hurt when she did that. It has peeled off and now has left a very ugly red scar. Will that scar go away? It is quite ugly and is very visable, about the size of a half inch in size.

Thank you for your advise. I truly appreciate your help.
