I turn 61 this year and although my childhood was almost half a century ago I still have vivid and fond memories of being in the country and exploring nature.

To remind me of those days is a large painting of a young girl and boy in a river catching sticklebacks with a small net and jam jar. It is in my brother’s house and it takes pride of place above the fireplace. I know my brother bought it because it reminded him of when we were young and used to trawl the rivers for small fish.

My summer memory is a vivid one of running among the clusters of daffodils that surrounded the cathedral in the local town. Then there is the feeling of sand between my feet as we ran up over the dunes of the beach chasing and hiding among the scattered dune grass that provided us with cover.

I remember the excitement of adventure when my father told us we were moving to Africa. We dreamed of fierce lions and elephants and my brothers and I would sit for hours and ponder on the wildness of the country we were moving too. Our stories were exaggerated ones of bravery and intrigue.

Africa was wonderful. The smells, the wildlife and the closeness to the natural world changed us as children. As my father was a Vet we lived in very rural situations.The different tribes of Africans affected us, their simplicity and joy in all kinds of situations made us very appreciate teenagers who looked at life with a global perspective and a thirst for knowledge of anything that moved and was deemed wild and interesting. It’s no wonder that I became a Biology and Animal Health lecturer and one brother became an Ecologist.

I grew up with nature and I still crave it. I think about children today and their learned priorities of socializing on the computer or playing games. Their time with nature sometimes seems organized instead of natural and that is a real shame.

Children today suffer from many physical and mental problems that could be helped by encouraging our children to experience nature. In N. Ireland where I live I hear of a teenage suicide every few months.

What brings someone so young to those depths?

Nature takes away our stresses.When we walk in a forest the trees and the plants disperse out negative energy. The smells affect our brains making us feel good and the exercise reduces our waistline. In the UK 28% of girls aged 2-10 are now obese and the figure has doubled since 1998. We push our Education system to achieve excellence at the expense of our natural being. Research has shown that playing in a natural environment improves a child’s concentration,social and mental development and physical and mental health.

Maybe if we got that right first the rest would follow.

Genital warts, also known as condyloma, or condylomata acuminata, is a highly contagious sexually transmitted infection. It is spread during oral, genital, or anal sex with an infected partner. Genital warts are the most easily recognised sign of genital HPV infection.

Genital warts often occur in clusters and can be very tiny or can spread into large masses in the genital or anal area. In women the warts occur on the outside and inside of the vagina, on the cervix, uterus or around the anus. While genital warts are approximately as prevalent in men, the symptoms of the disease may be less obvious. When present, they usually are seen on the tip of the penis.

They also may be found on the shaft of the penis, on the scrotum, or around the anus. Rarely, genital warts also can develop in the mouth or throat of a person who has had oral sex with an infected person.

 Genital warts often disappear even without treatment. In other cases, they eventually may develop a fleshy, small raised growth that looks like wadi. There is no way to predict whether the warts will grow or disappear. Therefore, if you suspect you have genital warts, you should be examined and treated, if necessary.

Depending on factors such as the size and location of the genital warts, a doctor will offer you one of several ways to treat them.

* Imiquimod, a topical immune response cream which you can apply to the affected area

* A 20% podophyllin anti-mitotic solution, which you can apply to the affected area and later wash off

* A 0.5% podofilox solution, applied to the affected area but shouldn’t be washed off

* A 5% 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) cream

* Trichloroacetic acid (TCA)

* Pulsed dye laser

* Liquid nitrogen cryosurgery

If you are pregnant, you should not use podophyllin or podofilox because they are absorbed by the skin and may cause birth defects in your baby. In addition, you should not use 5-fluorouracil cream if you are trying to become pregnant or if there is a possibility that you could be pregnant.

If you have small warts, the doctor can remove them by freezing them, burning them or with laser treatment. Occasionally, the doctor will have to use surgery to remove large warts that have not responded to other treatment.

Some doctors use the antiviral drug interferon-alpha, which they inject directly into the warts, to treat warts that have returned after removal by traditional means. The drug is expensive, however, and does not reduce the rate that the genital warts return.

Although treatments can get rid of the warts, they do not get rid of the HPV virus, so warts can recur after treatment. However, the body’s immune system typically clears the virus anywhere from 6 months to a year. There is even some suggestion that effective treatment of the wart may aid the body’s immune response.

Have you heard of Wartol? …it actually works!
