So I'm down to a few little things (warts). I've been getting acid treatments...so painful. I went to the doc again today and pointed stuff out, he was like "thats normal, thats a skin tag, I wouldn't worry about that...." I had him fry it all anyway.
Now, I go over this area with a fine tooth comb-so to speak-if I find another little thing (we are talking freckle magnitude) what should I do? Should I just chill and take some vitamin C? I've been going to a gyno-should I take it to a dermatologist? (Do dermos see women for warts or is that just for men with warts?) I've never been to a dermo before for anything....are they pretty knowledgeable?
I'd like to beleive that I am seeing the end of this sick mad journey (its been about 8 months) but I wanted to get feedback from you all about how to handle little things if they pop up. Thanks!

First, don't shave cause little ones will pop up. Aldara can take care of the little ones. You can also freeze them.

Let the acid take care of the bigger ones, and use aldara after. Try to relax a little bit while your healing because your worrying won't make the process any faster. Yes, I'd say ignore anything freckle sized that you see, and try to be positive!! You'll make it!

I would use aldara if you currently arent. Get a prescription from your doc. I am a female and I see a dermotologist. Aldara gets rid of the small and large ones for me.

I went off aldera but I think I'll go back on...and get some freezing action as well. ABOVE do you like your dermattologist? Is she weirded out treating "That" part of the body, or does she see a lot of this?
