Genital warts are soft, moist, and pink or flesh-colored swellings that typically occur on the vulva, cervix, vagina, or penis. They are caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV) and are highly contagious. Genital warts are one of the most common sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). Various treatment options are available, including prescription drugs and certain medical procedures.
