HPV: Genital Warts vs. Enlarged Blood Vessels on the Scrotum; The CBCD Explains the Difference
Genital warts and enlarged blood vessels on the scrotum are not related, although some may mistake them for each other.
The Center for the Biology of Chronic Disease (CBCD)’s December 2015 survey found that 86% of participants did not know the difference between the appearance of certain, enlarged blood vessels that appear on the scrotum, called “Angiokeratomas,” and genital warts. Angiokeratomas “can occur alone or in multiples and appear as deep-red or purple papules, usually over the scrotum. They can also appear on the penis. Angiokeratomas advance with age and represent a collection of enlarged capillaries (blood vessels). Treatment is only required if they bleed frequently.” (1) Some people may mistake angiokeratomas with genital warts because these enlarged blood vessels are usually “ 2 to 5mm, blue-to-red papules with a scaly surface.” (2)
It’s important to distinguish between angiokeratomas and genital warts since one condition is completely natural, and the other is a sign of a sexually transmitted disease. Since it’s important to distinguish between the two, the CBCD recommends going online and searching for photos of these conditions. As noted above, angiokeratomas usually require no medical action unless they bleed, but if you suspect that you have genital warts, then a doctor’s visit may be in order.

The Center for the Biology of Chronic Disease (CBCD) recommends that individuals who may be concerned about an HPV infection, which can cause penile warts and other symptoms, take Gene-Eden-VIR or Novirin. The formula of these natural, andtiviral products was shown to reduce symptoms associated with HPV infection in two separate post-marketing clinical studies that followed FDA guidelines. Additionally, it was designed to help the immune system target the latent HPV.
The formula of these natural antiviral products was tested by Hanan Polansky and Edan Itzkovitz from the CBCD in two clinical studies that followed FDA guidelines. The studies showed that the Novirin and Gene-Eden-VIR formula is effective against the HPV and other viruses. The clinical studies were published in the peer reviewed, medical journal Pharmacology & Pharmacy, the first, in a special edition on Advances in Antiviral Drugs. Study authors wrote that, “individuals infected with the HPV…reported a safe decrease in their symptoms following treatment with Gene-Eden-VIR.” (3) The study authors also wrote that “we observed a statistically significant decrease in the severity, duration, and frequency of symptoms.” (3)
Both products can be ordered online on the Novirin and Gene-Eden-VIR websites here:

Novirin and Gene-Eden-VIR are natural antiviral dietary supplements. Their formula contains five natural ingredients: Selenium, Camellia Sinesis Extract, Quercetin, Cinnamomum Extract, and Licorice Extract. The first ingredient is a trace element, and the other four are plant extracts. Each ingredient and its dose was chosen through a scientific approach. Scientists at polyDNA, the company that invented and patented the formula, scanned thousands of scientific and medical papers published in various medical and scientific journals, and identified the safest and most effective natural ingredients against latent viruses. To date, Novirin and Gene-Eden-VIR are the only natural antiviral products on the market with published clinical studies that support their claims.
Note: Novirin has the same formula as Gene-Eden-VIR. However, it contains higher quality and more expensive ingredients.
It is interesting to note that when it comes to angiokeratomas, “the papules can bleed spontaneously if traumatized or during intercourse. Many of the reports describe patient concern that the lesions represent a sexually transmitted disease. Large series of angiokeratomas have been reported from America and Japan, which give a picture of disease predominantly in whites and in Japanese populations. Cases in blacks exist but are few in number.” (4)
It is important for the public to understand that when it comes to genital warts, “the safest way to protect yourself from getting exposed to HPV or any other STD, is to use safe sex techniques. Abstain from sexual contact with individuals who have anal (or genital) warts. Since many individuals may be unaware that they suffer from this condition, sexual abstinence, condom protection or limiting sexual contact to a single partner will reduce the contagious virus that causes warts. However, using condoms whenever having any kind of intercourse may reduce, but not completely eliminate, the risk of HPV infection, as HPV is spread by skin-to-skin contact and can live in areas not covered by a condom.” (5)
What Current Treatments are Available for HPV infections?
“There are no drugs approved against the HPV. Current treatments include procedures, such as cryotherapy, conization, and the Loop Electrosurgical Excision Procedure (LEEP). These procedures use liquid nitrogen, a surgical knife (scalpel), a carbon dioxide (CO2) laser, or electrical current to remove the abnormal growths caused by the HPV. These growths include cells that harbor the active virus. The procedures do not target cells with the latent virus. Since they do not remove the latent virus, these procedures only produce a temporary remission.” (3) In contrast, Novirin and Gene-Eden-VIR were designed to target the latent HPV, and were shown to reduce HPV symptoms in two separate post-marketing clinical studies that followed FDA guidelines.
The CBCD therefore recommends that individuals infected with the latent HPV take Novirin or Gene-Eden-VIR.
