Papilloma can occur in almost anyonea person - both an adult and a child. Most often, if there is one papilloma and it is small, a person simply does not pay attention to it - it does not bother and that's fine. However, this is for the time being - if one papilloma appears, sooner or later a second and a third will appear. Of course, if you do not start the appropriate treatment. Moreover, you are unlikely to be able to get rid of papillomas on your own. No, of course, with the help of traditional medicine recipes you can remove papillomas from the skin, but there is still a very high probability that the papilloma will appear in another place. So how to break this vicious circle? Let's figure it out together.
All about papilloma
First, you need to make sure that youyou are dealing specifically with a papilloma. In principle, it is not difficult to do this - the appearance of a papilloma is very specific - a small benign skin-colored neoplasm resembling a papilla. Of course, it is small only at the beginning, then the papilloma increases in size, and in addition, if it is not alone, it can merge with neighboring neoplasms, forming entire colonies. Most often, papillomas choose places where the mucous membranes pass into the skin - the corners of the lips, genitals. In addition, the inner thighs and shoulders are vulnerable. But the appearance of papillomas in any other place is also not uncommon. You can find them anywhere, sometimes even in the most unexpected places - on the face, on the palms, on the soles. Papillomas do not appear just like that - they are the result of the action of the human papilloma virus in the body. And, as you understand, you can successfully get rid of papilloma only if you eliminate the virus. Therefore, strictly speaking, treatment should be comprehensive - removal of the papilloma itself and antiviral therapy. All other attempts to get rid of papilloma can be a temporary measure and nothing more. An interesting fact - doctors say that more than 90% of the entire adult population is infected with the papilloma virus. Of course, in most cases, the virus does not manifest itself for a long time - until a certain time. While the body's immune system works without failures, the virus has practically no chance of manifesting itself. But as soon as the immune system weakens a little, it becomes active. You can become infected anywhere - through direct contact with a person who is a carrier of the virus, through everyday life - common objects, showers, locker rooms, swimming pools. Even the slightest damage to the skin, invisible to the naked eye, is enough for the virus to penetrate the body. And then the appearance of papilloma is just a matter of time, sometimes very short.
Treatment of papilloma
The first thing you should do when you findpapilloma - go to a dermatologist. First, the doctor must make sure that it is indeed a papilloma. Second, the doctor will select a suitable course of antiviral therapy for you, which will destroy the human papilloma virus. And third, the doctor can offer several ways to remove papillomas:
- A liquid nitrogen
The essence of this method of removing wartsis as follows. The doctor applies liquid nitrogen to the papilloma using a special applicator and leaves it for some time - a kind of freezing is obtained. The papilloma tissue is damaged and begins to die. First, a blister with water contents is formed, which dries up and falls off after about 10 days. Ideally, there should not be a trace left at the site of the papilloma.
- Electricity
Electrocoagulation is also quite effective.removes papillomas without leaving scars. The procedure itself is virtually painless and takes only a few minutes - using low-frequency current, the doctor damages the vessels that feed the papilloma. As a result, its tissues begin to die off and in just a few days there will be no trace of the papilloma.
- Laser ray
Laser removal of all benignneoplasms is the most popular today. Which is understandable, by the way - the procedure is painless, bloodless, the papilloma disappears immediately, no scars remain on the skin. This procedure has only one "but" - it is quite expensive. But health is not something you can save on. Right?
Folk remedies for papillomas
As practice shows, very few peopleagree to have the wart removed by a doctor. Some do not want to spend money, others do not have time to visit a doctor. But most often these are just excuses - in most cases, people are simply afraid. And they try to cope with the papilloma on their own. And, in fairness, it should be noted that they often succeed. We offer you several of the most effective and safe traditional medicine recipes that will help get rid of papillomas. But remember - you still cannot avoid a visit to the doctor, because he must prescribe you antiviral treatment. And one more very important point that I would like to remind you of - strictly adhere to the proportions and technology of preparation of this or that product, apply it only to the papilloma and do not do the procedures more often than recommended. Otherwise, you risk damaging the healthy skin around the papillomas. And remember - Folk remedies should not be used if the papillomas are located on the mucous membranes!
- Garlic
Garlic is the first assistant in the fight againstany skin growths. But remember that garlic can damage the skin, so protect it. The easiest way is any greasy cream applied to the skin around the papilloma in a thick layer. And the most reliable is an adhesive bandage. Cut a hole in it large enough for the papilloma to fit through and stick it to the skin. That's it, done - the skin is protected, and access to the papilloma is free. Peel two or three cloves of garlic, chop them thoroughly and apply the resulting gruel to the papilloma for about 20 minutes. Normally, you should feel a slight tingling. But if the discomfort is too strong, wash off the garlic immediately, and next time before applying, add a few drops of any vegetable oil to the gruel. This procedure must be repeated every other day for a month. As a rule, this time is enough to get rid of the papilloma, but if necessary, after a week's break, the course of treatment can be repeated. If there are many papillomas on the skin and they are located close together, you can try a garlic cake. Peel a few cloves of garlic, add a little flour and knead a stiff dough. Form a cake out of it, apply it to the papillomas and fix it - you can use a bandage or adhesive tape. The cake should remain on the skin for at least two hours, so it is most convenient to do this procedure every evening for two weeks. As a rule, this treatment helps to get rid of even the largest papillomas.
- Onion
Another great removerpapillomas - the most common onion, which acts more gently than garlic. Peel half a small onion, chop it finely and put it in a deep plate. Pour apple cider vinegar over the onion and leave for about two hours - as a result, the onion should be soft. Mash the onion with a fork to get a puree-like mass. Apply it to the papilloma, cover with plastic wrap on top and leave for 30 minutes. Then rinse the skin with plenty of cool water and lubricate with any baby cream. It is enough to repeat this procedure every other day for one month. Such treatment will allow you to get rid of even an old and large papilloma. Sometimes, if the neoplasm is located in such a way that you injure it, it can become inflamed. In this case, onions with aloe will be an ideal remedy. Chop a quarter of a small onion, pour apple cider vinegar and leave for three hours. Then drain the vinegar, mash the onion with a fork and add three tablespoons of aloe leaf puree prepared in advance. Apply the resulting mixture to the papilloma, cover with gauze and leave for two hours. After that, rinse the skin with cool water, wipe and apply a thin layer of baby cream. This procedure should be done no more than three times a week. Of course, the treatment will take much longer - about three months.
