Have a nice day -- do a wart audit.
We performed an audit of the treatment of genital warts at our clinic by reviewing the case notes of 302 patients who presented with a first episode of genital warts. 186 were suitable for inclusion, of whom over 90% were clear of warts within three months. However, even after just one month of treatment, 84.9% of men and 60.2% of women were clear of warts. On the basis of this information, we can be more optimistic when advising patients about the likely duration of treatment.
