I am in the middle of my treatment and I would like to say that it is HORRIBLE. I wish that I never took Aldara, I would rather live with the little tiny almost invisible genital warts than deal with the terrible side effects of Aldara. So far the Aldara cream has only made things worse. The skin on my penis now looks red and seems to be scarring from where a negative reaction to the cream has taken place. The skin on that part of my penis is really sensitive and may start bleeding if it rubs against something. This treatment is also taking a really long time (3+months) basically I am starting to feel like Aldara is ruining my life. I am thinking I will have permanent irreversible damage done to my penis because of the cream, and I could have just let the tiny little warts go away on their own, because Aldara hasn't done anything to to get rid of them, only made it worse.
