Have a friend who I know through family
Anyway he let me know he returned from Thailand for the first time with a mate, just over a month ago. He was in Pattaya for a week as well as 1-2 other Thai places. I didn't ask in detail what he got up to, but he indulged as many single men would. He is 19
I asked him did you insist on protected sex?
He said 'definitely'
I know he was telling the truth with what happened next
He was really worried, so he confided with me that he had noticed an unusual small lump on the top of his penis shaft, where the condom ends if you wearing one. It was painless but small and raised
He saw his GP, and was prescribed podophyllotoxin liquid for what was diagnosed genital warts. It should be curable as it's in one place and very localised
He was told not to shave over the wart as that spreads the wart virus over the skin and makes it worse
He asked me not to tell his father and of course I haven't
Even with a condom, friction if the condom can cause microtears in the skin, and a woman with genital warts gives them to you through any abrasions in the skin. Without a condom the head of your penis is directly infected
I told him how lucky he is that he was wearing condoms throughout
I was very surprised he was so disciplined - he was a very reckless kid at school
He isn't so reckless after all
