Venereal warts are a fairly common sexually transmitted disease (STD) caused by a specific virus that affects the skin or mucus membranes. The virus usually causes cauliflower-like fleshy growths in moist areas in and around the sex organs.
About 65% of regular partners of someone with warts will also have warts. The incubation period is long, anywhere from 3 weeks to more than 6 months, and the virus can be transmitted at anytime during this time.
Most often, venereal warts are found in young (age 15 to 30 years) people who have multiple sex partners. Those whose immune systems are compromised are more likely to become infected and to have a more serious infection than others.Venereal warts are extremely common and increasing rapidly. They are now even more common than genital herpes, another sexually transmitted disease.
