Human papillomavirus virus infection is transmitted primarily through sexual contact. To date, more than 100 viral strains are known, which differ in the degree of oncogenicity. Recently, clinicians have begun to put any skin neoplasms, including papillomas, in a precancerous condition, therefore, it is equally important to adequately treat papillomas on the body and remove them in a timely manner.
Which doctor should I go with with papillomas on the body?
Unfortunately, the human papilloma virus progresses in asymptomatic form for a long time and even after the appearance of papillomas is expressed on the body in any way.
Patients are only used to seeing a doctor with obvious disturbing symptoms:
- pian,
- itching
- leakage exousate serous, blood.
Often, such symptoms with papilloma are characterized by malignancy or inflammation.
If neoplasms appear on the body, it is recommended to consult a general practitioner or directly a dermatologist. If you suspect a human papillomavirus virus infection, a dermatologist may refer you to an infectious disease specialist, venereologist, gynecologist or urologist.
With alarming symptoms, it is necessary to consult oncologists.
How to stop the growth and cure papillomas on the body?
Removing papillary lesions alone will not solve the problem of HPV.
New neoplasms will re-emerge under favorable conditions:
- Increased chronic diseases;
- Cold or hypothermia;
- Stress factor;
- Long-term drug treatment.
Unfortunately, it is impossible to completely remove the virus from the body, but modern medicine is able to provide a stable remission of the additional pathogenic activity of HPV strains.
Adequate drug therapy prevents the development of a new papillary focus, and local drugs destroy the structure of the papilloma and result in self-amplification.
Tablets for papillomas on the body
Tablets are prescribed, if necessary, systemic treatment to capture the activity of viral strains. At the same time, they solve the problem of treating combined pathologies or other predictable factors that may lead to virus activation.
To treat the manifestations of HPV, the following drugs are prescribed:
- Immunostimulating antiviral agents. Active substances suppress pathogenic viral activity in a short time. Combined with the antiviral effect, the drugs stimulate the production of their own antibodies that fight the virus and completely destroy the strains.
- Antiviral drugs of plant origin. Substances effectively fight viral infection; after a few days of use, they destroy viral strains at the DNA level. These funds are already built on the first day of recurrent growth. Side effects include nausea, dyspepsia, and upset stools.
- Synthetic products based on purine. The daily dose is 2-3 tablets per day, and in case of severe infection, the dose is increased to 5-6 tablets per day.
- High-efficiency immunomodulators. Taking into account that papillomas can grow and reproduce only against the background of reduced immunity, prescription drugs are symptomatic. The daily dose is 1 tab. 4 times a day. Tablets are not prescribed during pregnancy and in children under 10 years of age.
- Broad spectrum tablets that are highly effective against HPV, fungal infection, pathogenic microorganisms. The drugs improve the effectiveness of other medicinal antiviral agents, practically no violations. The course of treatment is long in 14-21 days.
HPV tablets are taken strictly after the attending physician has appointed. This is due to oral administration, the passage of the drug through the digestive tract and the possible negative effect of tablets on the state of internal organs and systems.
Creams and ointments
Local preparations against papillomas on the body can be used independently at home, which greatly simplifies therapy. Unlike using tablets, ointments directly affect the papillomatous focus, destroying viral DNA and adequately regenerating cells.
There are some main drugs that can be used at home:
- Salicylic ointment. For treatment, an agent with a concentration of active substances of 60% is used. The course of treatment depends on the effectiveness of therapy. So, the treatment lasts from 7 to 14 days with a short break, after which the treatment can be continued. Salicylic ointment can cause tingling, pain, itching. An affordable and affordable product will not harm, but will have a bactericidal and regenerating effect.
- 3% oxygen lines. The main difference from nasal ointment is the concentration of the active substance. To remove papillomatous foci, 3% oxolin is required. The drug has a pronounced antiviral effect, prevents the appearance of new papillary foci.
- Ointment and interferon. Effective local immunomodulators that actively enhance local immunity. The active substance is human interferon, which has an antiviral effect. A characteristic feature is the lack of contraindications, therefore, the agent is widely used in pediatric practice.
- Ointment since. The drug is effective against many dermatological diseases, including papillomas and warts. Zinc paste is absorbent, astringent and anti-inflammatory. A liniment based on zinc oxide, which dries the papilloma, contributes to its rapid collapse.
- Ointments against papillomas with salicylic acid in the composition are effective. The preparations are applied 2 times a day with an applicator or cotton swab, avoiding contact with healthy skin areas.
- Ointments with herbal ingredients. The funds increase local immunity, help increase the synthesis of its own interferon. The drugs destroy the structure of the papilloma, they eliminate not only the external growth, but also the root of the neoplasm.
- Ointments with complex composition and antibiotics. The main ingredients of the antibiotic chloramphenicol and methyluracil, belonging to the group of immunomodulators. Ointments contribute to the normal regeneration of skin cells, normalizing the balance of water in the structures of the skin. The general course of treatment is 4 weeks, 2-3 applications per day.
General complex therapy lasts up to several weeks. Patients must take systemic drugs in combination with local agents to stop the viral process as quickly as possible.
No need to interrupt the course of antiviral therapy!
Against the background of drug treatment, one should adhere to a healthy lifestyle, eat right and drink vitamin complexes. It is a comprehensive approach to HPV treatment that allows you to maintain stable immunity for a long time and prevent the appearance of new papillomas on various localized body.
Be healthy and happy!
