Papillomas and warts are small-sized, round-shaped benign neoplasms located on the skin or mucous membranes.
The reason for the emergence of such formations is the infection with papilloma virus (HPV), which is in the leading position in the ranking of the most common diseases in the world. There are two main routes of transmission of HPV:
- Communication - household;
- Sexual.
The danger of papillomatosis is the development of the malignancy process (the transformation of a benign neoplasm into an oncological tumor).
Infection and damage to growth with oncogenic HPV strains can trigger the malignancy process. Generally, wart growths grow slowly, but if the body's defenses are weakened, the process of increasing the size and number of growths can be accelerated if a full-fledged immune response does not occur.
Medical centers and clinics offer radical methods to get rid of external signs of papillomatosis. However, conservative home treatment will be just as effective.
Important!Before starting self-treatment of papillomatosis, you should consult a dermatologist.
The doctor will conduct the necessary clinical studies, make an accurate diagnosis, clarify the HPV strain of the pathogen and recommend the most effective drugs to eliminate skin imperfections.
Medical care should not be neglected, as improperly selected self-treatment can cause malignancy.
Don't try to cut the papilloma. This can lead to their spread and degeneration into an oncological tumor. Also, do not try to remove growths found on the mucous membranes of the larynx, eyes or genitals at home.
Home medication
