Human Papilloma, Treatment and Prevention

Doctors prescribe treatment for human papilloma

Human papillomavirus (HPV) is one of the most common viruses in the world. It infects the skin and causes growth on it. Skin lesions may be acute, flat, or domed, protruding, or penetrating the skin.

HPV is also called the wart virus. Wart growths can be single or multiple, like cauliflower. They can affect any part of the body, including the genitals (intermittent papillomas). Certain types of infection, such as human papillomavirus 16, can lead to the development of cancer, especially cervical cancer.

Human papilloma can exist in the body for years and does not cause any external symptoms. Appearing on the surface of the skin, papillomas can disappear on their own, without any treatment and pain, although this does not happen instantly, but, for example, within six months.

Human papilloma, disease prevention

Warts are contagious, they are transmitted through contact with infected skin, papillomas in intimate areas are sexually transmitted. The risk of transmitting the infection to a sexual partner can be reduced by using a condom. However, this is not 100% protection as the disease can be transmitted when exposed skin areas are in contact. It is better to refrain from sexual contact at all during the period of papillomavirus activity. The partner must be informed of the presence of HPV.

Papillomas on other areas of the skin, such as the hands and feet, can also be transmitted through contact: hand tremors, touching an infected hand on a trainer, walking barefoot in the shower, someone else's towel, linen, or cosmetics. Prevention of the disease in these cases may be the protection of personal hygiene.

Sometimes human papillomavirus is reactivated. In some people these are rare and isolated cases, in some people suffer from multiple papillomas. It depends on the nature of the virus and the condition of the human body. Weak immunity, hormonal problems, stress and excessive lifestyle with bad habits contribute to the activity of the virus.

To prevent a recurrence of the papillomavirus epidemic, the immune system must be strengthened. This requires proper nutrition, exercise, good sleep, abstinence from alcohol and tobacco, and control over stressful situations. Taking care of your body health will allow you to prevent relapses and fully deal with papillomas over time.

How to treat papillomas

Papillomavirus cures have not yet been found. However, human papilloma is mostly eliminated from the body by the immune system and without treatment. Although the human papillomavirus itself cannot be cured with medication, the wart formations caused by the infection are curative and quite effective. Removal of papillomas may be necessary many times, because if HPV remains in the body, they will reappear.

There are various medical and traditional methods of treating papillomas. For example, removal of the affected skin layers with salicylic acid or cryotherapy (freezing with liquid nitrogen). The skin may change color and texture shortly after exposure to nitrogen, but it recovers quickly. One of the ways to fight against papillomas is immunotherapy, ie strengthening the body's defenses. With this method of treatment, antibodies (vaccinations) are introduced into the body, which destroy the virus.

Also used for acid cauterization and surgical removal with a laser or scalpel. Spot papillomas are opened in medical facilities by the listed methods, during several repeated procedures. It should also be noted that medical methods of treating papillomas are much more effective than traditional ones.

Laser surgery is used when other methods have not helped to solve the problem, or it is necessary to remove the papilloma quickly. Laser therapy can be used on any part of the body, with the help of which it is possible to remove papillomas in intimate areas. The laser works selectively, without damaging healthy skin or creating scars. There may be slight redness or hyperpigmentation, but it dissolves quickly and the skin heals. Depending on the nature and size of the neoplasm, 1 to 3 laser procedures may be needed.

After successful treatment, you should visit your doctor annually for prophylactic examinations. In accessible areas, the presence of characteristic formations is checked independently. It is also recommended to take preventive measures against recurrence of the disease, to strengthen the immune system, physical endurance and resistance to stress.
