Anal warts are caused by the HPV virus. After contracting the virus anal warts can appear within weeks or may appear up to 2 to 3 years after. Your immune system may have gotten rid of the HPV in the meantime rendering it undetectable on the test (clinically insignificant) but you still have warts.

Other conditions that can appear as warts are Hemorrhoids, Molluscum Contagiosum, Perianal cyst , Epidermal Cyst, Fistulas, Seborrheic Keratosis, Lymphoceles, Tumours.
