Almost all of us, at least once in our lives, have come across warts - tied growths that affect hands, fingers and feet from their legs, armpits and other parts of the body.As a rule, the cause of these benign neoplasms is human papillomavirus (HPV), which affects every second inhabitant of the planet.
What do you need to know about HPV?
Today, HPV understands an entire group of viruses (over 100), which has established itself in the tissues and media of the human body, from time to time can manifest itself in the form of common, flat and pointed warts (in fact, warts).HPVs are more often transmitted through contact with the skin of the infected, through towels, ordinary and sexually clothing.This virus can be easily caught in a bathroom, a pool sauna, a locker room for a fitness club and other public places with high humidity and dubious sanitary conditions.Having penetrated the body, the virus is rooted forever and, unfortunately, does not give in to complete the cure.
In addition, in the body of a carrier, several dozen HPV strains can live at the same time.In the presence of severe immunity and the absence of chronic diseases, the papilloma virus may be in a nap, without showing itself.However, in the event of weakening body protection functions, HPV may declare itself in neoplasms format, increase body temperature, general disease.
The plantar warts so called that appear on the feet in the area of the largest friction during the walk are more called problems.Such warts are gray gray seals that are extremely painful during the walk.Genital warts are also extremely unpleasant, whose removal is quite problematic due to thin skin in the area of their location.
For HPV treatment, special antiviral drugs are used today, as well as immunotherapy, although, as we have already observed, it is not possible to get rid of the viruses acquired forever today.
METHODS SETTS TO REMOVE Warts
In modern dermatology, several successful techniques are used to remove neoplasms in the form of warts:
- Cryodestruction.Burning a benign neoplasia with liquid nitrogen.Just a few procedures are enough to completely remove the wart.The procedure is quite painful as frozen nitrogen comes into contact with the skin at a temperature of - 196 degrees Celsius.From the deficiencies of the methodology, we observed the difficulty of monitoring the level of frost during cauterization, as well as the possibility of appearing a scar at the site of a remote wart.
- Burning with a laser.Removal of the growth layer is performed using local anesthesia with medical lasers.This method is the least traumatic, therefore, cosmetic defects at the site of wart, as a rule, do not arise.
- Electrocoagulation.The methodology is based on the effect on the affected area of the skin with a high frequency stream.With the deep burning of the roots of the wart after healing the wound, a scar may occur.
- Surgical removal.It is rarely used, usually with a deep arrangement of growth roots.After the excision of the body of the wart, the surgeon imposes the seams, after the removal from which the visible scar remains.The innovative option is the so-called radio wave surgery, which involves removing a wart using high frequency radio waves (3.8-4.0 MHz).
Burning at home
You can exclude a conventional wart at home.For these purposes, cosmetic treatment compounds made from natural or active alkaline celandine are more frequently used.
Before removing wart to protect healthy skin, a thin layer of cream for children or petroleum Vaseline should be applied directly close to the affected area.Now you can start to burn directly.To do this, apply a small drop of composition directly to the top of the wart and wait for your full drying.You will have to repeat a similar procedure 1-2 times a day for several days.In the process of this treatment, the warts exfoliates and disappears completely, leaving behind a small pigment place, which will disappear after a while.
Using this method to remove pointed warts and papillomas, you should be very careful.The concentrated alkaline contained in such compositions is extremely aggressive;Therefore, with the incorrect calculation of the volume of a single dose during a burning session, the procedure can leave behind a deep chemical burn, which will be wet and heal further.The appearance of scars or scars with these errors is inevitable.
Cryotherapy at home and therapeutic adhesive
You can try to get rid of the wart knots with the help of modern medications, which are based on a special cooling mixture.The temperature of a liquid is 50 to 55 degrees Celsius.With strict observance of the instructions, manufacturers guarantee to get rid of growth on average at 10 to 14 days.
However, these medications cannot guarantee a therapeutic effect.Usually they show a good result only in the fight against unique small warts.Special plase or medical pencils, soaked in salicylic acids or lactic, proved well.This treatment course can take you in a half to two months.
No one will give guarantees
Despite the broad list of means and methods intended for the removal of warts and papillomas caused by the HPV, no expert will make a complete cure and lack of relapse in the future.Unfortunately, the likelihood of secondary appearance of such growths is quite high.It is all about the deep arrangement of viral structures on the skin, as well as in the wrong choice of therapeutic techniques.
To protect as much as possible from relapses, it is necessary to constantly maintain your immune system, take vitamin complexes, try to avoid handcrafted with unknown people, monitor skin integrity (wear gloves or protective gloves in production), avoid tight shoes and the occurrence of corn on the soils.
Precautions
Having decided to remove papilloma, consult a surgeon or dermatologist.After all, it is possible that you can confuse and accept us or common hair hemangioma for a flat wart.And the burning of the nevo can lead to sad consequences, until the appearance of cancer.
Consultation with a specialist, the delivery of the necessary tests and then the removal of growth in the clinic will allow you to avoid risk and maintain your health.
