Will Hpv Warts Show If You Pour Vinegar On Them. Posted: 12-12-06 16:33pm
Hi, I am new here. A couple years ago I
had unprotected sex with some women.
After some time I noticed an ever so
slight change in the skin right next to
the glans of my penis. I am talking about
just under the ridge of it. It seemed to
be localized to just the left side. At
first it started small, but later they got
bigger, but still you can't even really
see anything, its the same color as the
surrounding skin.
It is so subtle that I doubt any girls
would even notice if they looked, let
alone a doctor. Never the less it gets
slightly itchy sometimes, but not very
often. I can't tell but it seems like it
may have spread, but it stays just under
the ridge of the glans.
I poured vinegar over my whole penis, but
nothing turned white like I read that
warts would.
So I guess my question is, could I
possibly have developed pearly penile
papules in my 20's? I am kind of
embarrassed to get it checked by the
doc.
Is vinegar supposed to turn all warts
white or is this just a myth?

I wouldn't try that... Call a local
doctor's office and ask to speak with a
nurse. Tell her that- and see what she
says.
I've never heard of that..But I am betting
it might possibly burn...I wouldn't take
that risk! Ouchies!
Good luck

I read you have to apply it for at least 5
minutes. My suggestion would be to pour a
glass of vinegar and let your penis soak
in it for 5 minutes or so. Sometimes I
use vinegar to clean a wound, and it will
turn damaged skin white as it penetrates
into the cells. Healthy skin won't turn
white since it is doing its job acting as
a barrier.

I'm not sure if its a myth or not, perhaps
the MythBusters can do an episode of that.
I tried it on my warts and it didn't have
any affect. I think it may be a plausible
statement, but just an ineffective way to
do a self-diagnosis. I am finding out
that the internet is wrong on a lot of
things. Also it is tough to get a
straight answer from anyone.
Personally, I wish the government would
spend more money on cures and effective
treatments for genital warts. Because
they suck big time.
