Human papillomavirus infection is mainly transmitted through sexual contact. So far, more than 100 virus strains are known, with varying degrees of carcinogenicity. Recently, clinicians have begun to attribute any skin tumors (including papillomas) to precancerous lesions. Therefore, it is very important to adequately treat and remove papillomas on the body.
Which doctor should I see if I have a papilloma on my body?
Unfortunately, the human papilloma virus has been spread asymptomatic for a long time, and it has not been expressed in any way even after the body has a papilloma.
Patients are accustomed to seeing a doctor only when they have obvious disturbing symptoms:
- pain,
- Itching
- Exuding serous, blood.
Generally, such symptoms of papilloma are characteristic of malignant tumors or inflammation.
If there is a tumor on the body, it is recommended to consult a general practitioner or directly consult a dermatologist. If you are suspected of being infected with human papillomavirus, your dermatologist may refer you to an infectious disease specialist, a STD specialist, a gynecologist or a urologist.
When there are worrying symptoms, it is necessary to consult an oncologist.
How to stop the growth and cure the papilloma on the body?
Simply removing the papillary lesions will not solve the HPV problem.
Under favorable circumstances, new tumors will reappear:
- Exacerbation of chronic diseases;
- Cold or hypothermia;
- Stress factor
- Long-term medication.
Unfortunately, it is impossible to completely remove the virus from the body, but modern medicine can provide stable relief to the further pathogenic activity of HPV strains.
Adequate drug treatment can prevent the development of new papillary lesions, and local drugs can destroy the structure of the papilloma and cause it to self-amputation.
Pills for treating papilloma of the body
If necessary, tablets can be used for systemic therapy to inhibit the activity of the virus strain. At the same time, they solve the problem of treating the combined pathology or other susceptibility factors that may lead to virus activation.
In order to treat the manifestations of HPV, the following drugs are prescribed:
- Immune stimulating antiviral agent. Active substances can inhibit the activity of pathogenic viruses in a short period of time. In addition to antiviral effects, these drugs also stimulate the production of autoantibodies, thereby fighting the virus and completely eradicating the virus strain.
- Antiviral drugs of plant origin. Substances are effective against viral infections; after a few days of use, they will destroy the virus strain at the DNA level. These funds have been taken up on the first day of regular growth. Side effects include nausea, indigestion, and stool discomfort.
- Purine synthetic products. The daily dose is 2-3 tablets per day. In severe infections, the dose is increased to 5-6 tablets per day.
- Highly effective immunomodulator. Considering that the growth and reproduction of papilloma is only possible under the background of reduced immunity, the prescription is symptomatic. The daily dose is 1 tablet. 4 times a day. No prescription pills are prescribed during pregnancy and for children under 10 years of age.
- A broad-spectrum tablet with high-efficiency effects on HPV, fungal infections, and pathogenic microorganisms. These drugs enhance the effectiveness of other medicinal antiviral drugs, and there are virtually no contraindications. The treatment course is 14-21 days long.
HPV tablets should be taken strictly after the designated attending physician. This is due to the possible negative effects of oral administration, drugs passing through the digestive tract, and tablets on the state of internal organs and systems.
Creams and ointments
The topical preparation for body papilloma can be used independently at home, which greatly simplifies the treatment. Unlike the use of tablets, the ointment directly affects the papilloma foci, destroys viral DNA and normalizes cell regeneration.
There are several main medicines that can be used at home:
- Salicylic acid ointment. For treatment, use a medicament with an active substance concentration of 60%. The course of treatment depends on the effectiveness of the treatment. Therefore, treatment lasts for 7 to 14 days with a short break, after which treatment can be continued. Salicylic acid ointment can cause slight tingling, pain, and itching. Affordable and affordable products will not cause harm, but will have obvious sterilization and regeneration effects.
- Oxolinic liniment 3%. The main difference from nasal ointment is the concentration of the active substance. To remove papilloma lesions, 3% oxolin is required. The drug has obvious antiviral effects and can prevent the appearance of new papillary lesions.
- Ointment containing interferon. An effective local immunomodulator that effectively enhances local immunity. The active substance is human interferon, which has antiviral effects. One feature is that there are no contraindications, therefore, the drug is widely used in pediatric practice.
- Zinc ointment. The drug is effective for many skin diseases, including papilloma and warts. Zinc paste has absorption, astringency and anti-inflammatory properties. The liniment is based on zinc oxide, which can dry the papilloma and promote its rapid shedding.
- The anti-papilloma ointment containing salicylic acid in the composition is effective. These preparations are applied twice a day with an applicator or cotton swab, avoiding contact with healthy skin areas.
- Ointment containing herbal ingredients. The funds increase local immunity and help increase the synthesis of self-interferon. The drug destroys the structure of the papilloma, not only eliminating external growth, but also eliminating the root of the tumor.
- Ointment with complex ingredients and antibiotics. The main ingredients are antibiotics chloramphenicol and methyluracil, which belong to the group of immunomodulators. The ointment helps the normal regeneration of skin cells and normalizes the water balance in the skin structure. The general course of treatment is 4 weeks, 2-3 times a day.
General comprehensive treatment lasts for several weeks. Patients need to take systemic drugs and topical drugs to stop the viral process as soon as possible.
The antiviral treatment process cannot be interrupted!
In the context of drug treatment, it is necessary to adhere to a healthy lifestyle, eat a reasonable diet, and drink more multivitamins. It is a comprehensive treatment of HPV, which allows you to maintain a stable immunity for a long time and prevents new papillomas from appearing in various parts of the body.
healthy and happy!
