Hands can tell a lot about a person -give away his age, position and social status. That is why the fair sex so closely monitors the condition of their hands - they do manicures, baths, use all kinds of creams. And therefore it is quite natural that calluses on the hands can upset anyone, because the appearance is very much spoiled. But do not despair - as we know, there are no hopeless situations. And therefore, you need to calm down and find a way to get rid of warts on your hands. Moreover, there are quite a lot of such methods and most of them are quite accessible. I would like to immediately make a reservation - self-medication is highly discouraged. You should not consider growths on your hands as something frivolous. Even if you give preference to a folk remedy for getting rid of warts, first consult a dermatologist - he must approve the treatment you have chosen.

What you need to know about warts?

A wart is a benigna new growth on the skin that occurs under the influence of the human papilloma virus. Warts can be located anywhere, but for some reason they most often choose the hands. You can’t ignore warts even if you don’t particularly care about the aesthetic side of the issue - despite the fact that the formation is benign, one day, under the influence of unfavorable factors, it can degenerate into a malignant one. Such factors can be a burn, prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, injury. Why do warts appear? If you don’t know the answer to this question, the treatment will not be successful. Before trying to get rid of the wart itself, you need to undergo a special course of treatment aimed at destroying the papilloma virus. Otherwise, your fight against warts will only be a temporary measure - as soon as you get rid of one, another one appears. And this running in circles can continue throughout your life. Agree that it is much wiser to undergo normal treatment, rather than guess why they appear again. But, alas, there is no guarantee that you will not become infected with the papilloma virus again in the future. Remember this and follow basic preventive measures - do not use other people's towels, do not wear other people's shoes and do not let anyone touch yours, do not walk barefoot in gym locker rooms and remember about rubber slippers in swimming pools. The slightest damage to the skin surface is enough for the virus to penetrate the body. By the way, you will not find out about your infection right away - the virus can remain in the body for a very long time completely unnoticed, because it is restrained by the human immune system. And as soon as it weakens even a little, the virus begins active life. And the virus will announce its existence to you by the appearance of warts. And if you do not start treatment immediately, more and more warts will appear.

Traditional removal of warts

Wart removal today offers hardly anynot every beauty salon. However, you should not act rashly and go to the first specialist you come across, because wart removal should only be performed by a person with a medical education, and not with certificates of unknown origin. It is the doctor who will tell you which method of wart removal is best for you. After all, there are quite a few of them:

• Cryotherapy

In this case, the doctor's ally in the fight againstwarts become liquid nitrogen. The doctor wets a special applicator in a liquid nitrogen solution, presses it firmly to the wart for several minutes - depending on its size. The wart tissues cool down strongly, are damaged and begin to die. In a day or two, the wart will turn into a solid blister, which will fall off on about the seventh day. In most cases, there are no scars after such treatment. But, of course, only if you take proper care of the wound.

• Electrocoagulation

If the warts are small, you can tryto get by with less blood - remove them with an electric current. The doctor damages the blood vessels that feed the wart tissue, causing it to die. But this procedure is quite painful, so it is not very popular today.

• Laser removal

The best option is laserwart removal. The laser beam allows you to remove the neoplasm quickly, painlessly and almost bloodlessly. The risk of infection of the wound is minimal, and there are no scars at the site of the removed wart - at most a small pink spot that will disappear over time. All these methods of wart removal are absolutely accessible to everyone. When choosing, the main guideline should be the opinion of the doctor. As a rule, there are no complications after removing warts. Of course, if you take proper care of the wound. Moreover, it is not at all difficult - treat the wound as the doctor says, try not to wet it again and especially not to stain it - buy medical gloves at the pharmacy. In two weeks at most, you will not even remember that recently a wart "showed off" on your hands, and maybe more than one.

Removing warts with garlic

If for some reason or another you don’t want toremove warts at the doctor, you can try to fight them with improvised means - traditional medicine knows many good recipes. But I would like to warn you right away that such treatment is entirely at your own risk. Yes, in most cases, people really manage to get rid of warts without any complications. But we must not forget that there is always, albeit a small, but still a probability of the degeneration of a benign wart into a malignant neoplasm. So is it worth risking your health in vain? But if you have decided on such treatment, then at least consult with your dermatologist. He will help you choose the most gentle recipe. One of the most effective means of removing warts is the most common garlic. We offer you several recipes - choose any. But remember that garlic is very aggressive to healthy skin around the wart. This means that if you do not want to treat burns later, you need to take care of skin protection. It is best to do this with an adhesive bandage. All you need is a wide roll of adhesive tape and scissors. Cut off a square of adhesive tape, cut a hole in it that matches the diameter of the wart and stick it on so that the wart remains on the surface. That's it, your skin will not be affected in any negative way.

• Garlic and sunflower oil

Grate a few small ones on a fine gratercloves of garlic, add a couple of drops of any vegetable oil and mix thoroughly. Apply the garlic and oil paste to the wart, put a small gauze napkin on top and secure it firmly with adhesive tape. The resulting garlic compress should be on the wart for at least an hour, after which the skin should be washed with plenty of cool water. But if you feel severe discomfort, wash off the garlic immediately - most likely, the skin of your hands is too sensitive. This procedure should not be carried out more often than every other day - your wart will disappear in about two weeks anyway.

• Garlic cake

If the wart is large enough, it makes senseMake a garlic cake. To make it, you will need five large cloves of garlic, a couple of tablespoons of rye flour, half a teaspoon of olive oil and a little apple cider vinegar. Knead the dough from these ingredients - it should be elastic and not too steep. Store this dough in a tied plastic bag in the refrigerator for no more than two weeks. Every evening, apply the cake formed from the dough to the wart. Put a layer of gauze and plastic wrap on top, and then secure it - either with a bandage or with an adhesive plaster. This cake should remain for at least 5 hours, and even better - all night. You will notice the first results in about 10 days, and the wart will completely disappear in about a month.

Treatment of warts with the help of onions

If you don't like garlic, you can contactfor help to his brother - onion. The treatment, of course, will take a little longer, but the onion acts much more gently - the risk of skin damage is minimal. Although, of course, the skin around the wart must be protected in this case - at least lubricate it with a thick layer of any greasy cream.

• Onions with butter

Peel half an onion,mince it and squeeze it lightly with gauze. Add a small amount of sunflower oil to the onion mass, mix and transfer to a glass container. Store the onion mass in the refrigerator for no more than a month. Every evening, make a hot hand bath - best with chamomile decoction. After 15 minutes, wipe your hands, apply a thick layer of onion to the wart and put plastic wrap on top, bandage and leave for two hours. Then wash your hands and lubricate the wart with zinc ointment, which is sold without a prescription in every pharmacy. It is best to do this procedure every evening - and in about a month you will say goodbye to the hated wart.

• Onion with apple cider vinegar

If the wart turns out to be very stubborn, you canuse a stronger weapon - onion with apple cider vinegar. Finely chop the onion, put it in a glass jar, cover with a lid and put it in the refrigerator. Immediately before the procedure, take out a teaspoon of onion, chop it with a fork and apply to the wart. On top - the same plastic wrap and gauze. Then fix the bandage and leave for five to six hours. Then wash off the onion and let the wart dry. Soak a cotton swab in apple cider vinegar and generously lubricate the wart. If the wart is small, it is enough to repeat this procedure every other day for a month. But if it is large or after a week you have not noticed the slightest change, do onion compresses every day. As you can see, there is nothing particularly difficult in these procedures - they can be done at home. But if after a month of treatment the warts on your hands still haven't disappeared, it's time to stop experimenting - go to the doctor. Most likely, you will need qualified serious treatment.
