What does the body signal when papillomas grow on the body

Papillomas appear - this is a signal of ongoing processes in the body that require urgent attention and referral to a specialist. Papillomas are benign growths that are present in every third person on the planet. In most cases, such elements cause only cosmetic discomfort, but sometimes they can lead to the development of dangerous diseases.

The mechanism of appearance of papillomas

Papillomas, warts and warts are growths that appear on the human body as a result of infection with the papilloma virus. The infectious agent is transmitted from a carrier to a healthy person in three ways:

  1. From birth from mother to child. This occurs in the presence of genital warts in pregnant women. As a result, papillomas appear in the mouth, pharynx, larynx, nose, and respiratory tract of the baby.
  2. Through household contacts. For infection with the papilloma virus, close contact with the subjects of a person with an education in the body is sufficient.
  3. During sexual intercourse. The most common type of infection. Typically, the result of transgender sex is warts in the intimate areas: anal and genitals. In case of detection, you should immediately consult a gynecologist to avoid undesirable consequences: due to careless treatment, trauma is possible, which leads to the likelihood of degeneration into a neoplasm, the development of cancerous tumors.

Small, invisible damage to the skin, mucous membranes is enough to enter the human bloodstream.

For this reason, even the protected sex cannot prevent the disease.

Causes of papillomas

Human papillomavirus is a highly infectious disease. It is almost impossible to prevent infection. In the modern world, 10 to 8 people have HPV. Fewer people cope with skin growth.

The body's natural defenses must be weakened to activate HPV. The appearance of papillomas on the body is preceded by the influence of external and internal factors.

External factors

The causes of papilloma on the body can be different. Everything a person is exposed to can be attributed to external provocateurs:

  1. Use of cosmetics, hygiene devices, personal items. This includes the use of underwear, toothbrushes, towels, shaving with a common razor, the use of scissors for manicures, decorative cosmetics.
  2. Visiting public swimming pools: swimming pools, baths, saunas, beaches. Walking barefoot increases the risk of skin damage.
  3. Salon and medical procedures. Lack of sanitary standards in facilities where reusable is used facilitates the transmission of viral infection. You can get infected in the cosmetologist's office while performing the piercing. The eyelash extension procedure, which has become popular in recent years, will cause eyelids to form.
  4. Excessive sweating and wearing tight clothing. Sweat provokes the formation of micro cracks on the skin. The virus reaches such damage, papillomas arise in problem areas. People notice the growth of warts on the arm (fibrous papillomas), under the breast (hanging growths), in the lower abdomen and in the groin area.
  5. Direct contact with units. Touch can spread the virus throughout the body, increasing the number of warts.
  6. A woman transmits human papillomavirus to a child through the birth canal. If mothers develop genitals, cervix or vagina, there is a high probability that the baby will be born already infected. This can happen if the papillomas are on the mother's breast.
  7. Sexual contact. A common form of HPV transmission from one partner to another. The more sexual partners a person has, the higher the chance of getting a viral infection.

It is not difficult to catch papillomavirus. A person can not protect himself from all provoking factors. In order to activate the virus, it is necessary to activate internal changes in the body.

Internal factors

Internal causes include processes that lead to impaired immunity, activation of infection.

  1. Acute processes in the body and taking pills. During treatment, the body's ability to stand up to pathogens independently.
  2. ᲡTress. Any psychological shock or experience leads to a weakening of protective functions. Strong experiences or emotional outbursts signal different diseases, such as the appearance of warts.
  3. Hypothermia or overheating. Body forces are expended in determining normal body temperature readings. He becomes sensitive to any external factors.
  4. Pregnancy in women. After conception, a woman’s body needs to weaken her immune system to prevent fetal rejection. Against the background of such a condition is often created a favorable environment for various infectious diseases, the signs of which were not previously observed. Sometimes, after childbirth, the body recovers, suppresses pathogenic processes, the formations disappear by themselves. Growth removal is not recommended at this stage, most removal methods are invasive.
  5. Hormonal changes. They can occur during puberty, pregnancy, breastfeeding, menopause or as a result of illness.
  6. Poor nutrition. Lack of vitamins causes some or all of the vital systems to work. Immunity falls. People experience the onset of the disease in the autumn-winter period when there is an acute shortage of useful products.
  7. Existence of bad habits. Alcohol and smoking reduce the ability to fight pathogens. People with addictions, according to doctors, are more likely to suffer from papillomavirus.

Characteristics of manifestation in men and women

Viral moles do not differ significantly. If they start to climb on the head, neck, back, face, abdomen or limbs, it does not matter who owns the papillomas - female or male. There are some differences between the transmission of the virus and the damage to the genitals. The genitals have a sensitive covering, easily damaged during sexual intercourse. According to specialists, the anal passage is more likely to be traumatic. The head of the penis is considered stable. Many homosexuals suffer from genital warts (severe warts on the legs).

In girls, growths may appear on the papilla, labia, clitoris, or vaginal cavity.

Without treatment, warts can coalesce and lead to the development of papillomatosis. The danger for women is the defeat of cervical warts. If the infection occurred with a virus type with high oncogenicity, there is a possibility of developing cancer.

In men, the growth affects the pubic area, the glans penis, and the upper layers of the epidermis. The growth can increase in the urethra, causing signs of the development of inflammatory processes, problems with urinary outflow.

Prevention of papillomas

It is almost impossible to avoid growths on the body. Adherence to certain rules will reduce the risk:

  • Adherence to the norms of individual use of items;
  • Skin protection in public places;
  • Proper nutrition;
  • Rejection of bad habits;
  • Having a permanent sexual partner.

Girls who have reached puberty are recommended to be vaccinated against dangerous strains of HPV with a high degree of oncogenicity. The vaccine is believed to prevent the development of cervical cancer. Home treatment does not guarantee recovery. Traditional methods of therapy (herbal treatment) will relieve external symptoms but leave the cause of the disease. If lumps appear on the body of unknown origin, you should consult a doctor at a medical facility. Your doctor will prescribe a topical medication for the virus.

To avoid health problems, you need to be attentive to your body. If a person receives a signal from the body when viral papillomas appear on the body, this should not be ignored. You should seek help from a specialist immediately. An experienced doctor, based on the diagnostic examination, will select the latest method of treatment.
