Treatment with papillomavirus

Treatment with papillomavirus

Treatment of the papillomavirus is a complex technique aimed at eliminating the symptoms of infection and their causes using surgical and therapeutic methods. Benign neoplasms - papillomas - can appear on different parts of the body or mucous membranes. Most often, such formations are harmless, but there are situations when their removal is necessary to prevent the formation from degenerating into an oncological tumor. That is why it is very important to properly treat HPV and follow all traditional medicine recommendations.

Drug therapy

It is not possible to completely cure the papillomavirus in a short time. To solve the problem, it is important to use antiviral and immunomodulatory drugs that prevent the spread of the disease and the malignancy of the formed formations. All drugs in the form of tablets, injections or suppositories are prescribed to patients after diagnosis.

For the treatment of the papillomavirus, drugs from the groups of immunostimulants, antivirals, homeopathy, drugs to destroy tumors and cytostatics are used. The first three groups of drugs can be of various forms (tablets, injections and others) and are used to combat the cause of the disease. The last two groups are used to gradually remove the formations formed.

The purpose of using immunostimulants is to strengthen and activate the protective functions in the body and to promote the synthesis of antibodies that fight viruses and infections. If you use immunostimulants in combination with antiviral drugs, their effects are many times higher.

How effective the immunomodulators used in the treatment of HPV will be depends on the individual responses of the patient's body and the treatment complex to which they belong. However, in most cases, with a pronounced papillomavirus clinic and the use of immunomodulators, the disease becomes regressive and may even go away completely.

Removal of papillomas by surgical methods

Can I use the deletion?

it is possible to remove papillomas

Some papillomas that appear on the body do not cause a person any discomfort, while others can grow and cause both cosmetic and physical discomfort. In case of discomfort from the papilloma, it is always removed, but it is worth removing the formations. If their appearance does not bring any inconvenience, then you definitely need to understand.

Cauterization with liquid nitrogen

The most acceptable way to get rid of papillomas today is the method of burning them with liquid nitrogen or cryodestruction. The technique can be carried out by hardware using a cryoprobe or manually, which is most commonly practiced in beauty salons.

To use the hardware cryodestruction technique, special equipment is required.

The cryodestruction is carried out in the following steps:

  1. In the preparatory phase, the nitrogen exposure zone is anesthetized with a local anesthetic solution in patients with a low pain threshold or a large area of ​​papilloma growth. In other cases, patients are advised to take a pain reliever orally 1 hour before the procedure.
  2. At the stage of direct freezing or cryodestruction, liquid nitrogen is applied to the papilloma area. At the same time, the period of validity for 1 point is only a few seconds, so that you can freeze up to 40 papillomas on the body in 5 minutes. Prior to cryosurgery, the patient is warned of a possible tingling sensation at the site of nitrogen application at the time of freezing.
  3. In the final stage, the skin treatment area is disinfected with liquid nitrogen using disinfectants.
Need for cryodestruction

The need for cryodestruction is determined by the attending physician. If the patient is at risk of papilloma degeneration into a malignant formation, removal must be performed. The factors influencing the need for cryodestruction are:

  • mechanical damage to the neoplasm;
  • decreased immunity of the patient;
  • use of oral contraceptives;
  • bad habits of the patient;
  • Localization of growths in places that are regularly injured in the course of life.

Cryodestruction is also indicated for aesthetic and physical complaints of the patient due to a papilloma on the body.

The main contraindications to the use of the method of cryodestruction are acute infections in the patient's body, inflammatory processes in the internal organs, atypical types of neoplasia, pathological cold intolerance. Possible complications after removing warts with liquid nitrogen can include scarring and tissue pigmentation at the site of the cryoprobe application.

Ointments and lotions

In pharmacies today you can buy a lot of special lotions and ointments to remove papillomas from the most sensitive areas of the skin.

It is necessary to use ointments for chemical burns in the formation only with complex therapy of the virus, which should be carried out with the help of tableted immunomodulators and antiviral agents.

Multivitamins that improve the state of the immune system and its readiness to produce protective antibodies against the virus do not interfere in this case.

Papilloma ointments

The most accessible ointment that can defeat papillomas is an ointment that contains salicylic acid and has keralotic, bactericidal and restorative effects on the affected tissues. The agent is applied selectively to the affected area without affecting the healthy surrounding tissue that can be used for burning.

You can also find ready-made solutions for removing papillomas in every pharmacy. With the help of such solutions, it is necessary to make lotions that will lead to the death of pathogenic microflora in the skin area and eliminate the papilloma.

Surgical method

Surgical removal of growths refers to the physical removal of papillomas with a scalpel.

Removal surgery is indicated by doctors if the size of the tumor exceeds 3 cm in diameter.

During manipulation, the surgeon first disinfects the area around the growth and growth itself with the help of disinfectants, then performs manipulations under local anesthesia and proceeds to the direct removal of the neoplasm. After the papilloma is removed, it must be sent for histological examination to determine the oncological nature in its cells. 2 weeks after the operation, the wound under the removed wart is completely tightened and healed.

The main indications for papilloma surgery are:

  • large formations, their deep and shallow views;
  • the need for urgent removal of the papilloma;
  • malignancy of the papilloma;
  • Inadmissibility of other methods of removing education.

The main advantages of the classical removal of papillomas are the complete elimination of the problem during surgery, the low probability of recurrence in this case, the safety of manipulation, the lack of a large list of contraindications to the procedure, and one for mostPatient acceptable price.

Disadvantages of surgical removal of papillomas include the appearance of a scar on the site of excision and sometimes a keloid scar, a long postoperative rehabilitation period, the refusal of exposure to ultraviolet radiation, and the invasiveness of the procedure. Complications of the operation in the form of redness, itching, scarring at the excision site and an increase in body temperature can also rarely occur.

Laser distance

Laser removal of papillomas

The gold standard of modern medicine for the removal of neoplasms is the laser removal of papillomas. Until recently, papilloma removal left scars, but today laser technology allows you to preserve the beauty of the skin without any visible changes.

The basis of laser therapy for papillomas is vaporization, which is the ability of the beam to cauterize tissue and evaporate life-giving moisture from its surface. The devices allow you to dose the duration and intensity of exposure to the rays on the skin depending on the type of neoplasm.

The laser removal process itself takes place in several steps:

  • First, the doctor performs a dermatoscopy and determines the type of laser to be used.
  • The exposure site is treated with local anesthetics.
  • The
  • laser removal session lasts several minutes.
  • When the procedure is over, the exposure site is disinfected and a sterile bandage is applied if contact with clothing is possible in this area.
  • The patient outside the clinic offers wound rehabilitation measures.

After papilloma removal by laser, patients are prohibited from sunbathing, visiting pools and spa centers, taking a bath or using cosmetics on the scar area.

These restrictions are temporary and are negotiated by the specialist and the patient before leaving the hospital.

Laser removal has a number of relative and absolute contraindications. Most often, the technique is not intended for diabetes mellitus, herpes, fever, influenza and SARS, diseases of the hematopoietic organs.

Traditional methods

Herbs

Herbs used to treat papillomas

Since ancient times, healers have been using various herbal teas to destroy all manifestations of papillomatosis. Many recipes have survived to this day, as they are distinguished by their effectiveness and the lack of negative effects on the body.

A popular folk remedy for HPV is wormwood tincture. With its help, you can remove formations on the entire surface of the body. The most important thing is to know exactly when and how the herb for medicine is harvested.

Wormwood has to be harvested in a certain way. The most useful in this herb are leaves and flowers, but the thick stem is not suitable for tincture. For medicinal purposes, it is less recommended to remove the wormwood root from the ground. All harvested parts of the plant are washed and placed on a flat surface to dry. During the drying process, the grass must be turned regularly to prevent it from drying out. The finished dried herb is stored in a dry jar with a tight lid.

A prepared tincture for wormwood papillomas not only eliminates this problem, but also eliminates the pathogenic microflora and also has a positive effect on the human stomach.

Taking tincture for papillomatosis lasts at least 2 weeks. Thereafter, the treatment is interrupted. Each of the possible tinctures is taken orally 5 drops up to 6 times a day.

Wormwood tincture can be made in oil, alcohol or cognac. For the oil tincture, you will need 25 grams of wormwood and 0. 5 cups of olive oil. The seeds are crushed in a coffee grinder and placed in a glass container scalded with boiling water. On top the seeds are poured with olive oil, everything mixed and covered with a tight lid. The mixture is infused in a cool place for three days, filtered and ready to use.

Alcohol tincture is made from 100 grams of wormwood powder, which is based on plant leaves chopped up in a blender and 0. 5 liters of vodka. Everything is mixed and poured into glass for 10-14 days, then filtered and used as indicated. The tincture should be kept in the refrigerator.

To prepare a tincture of wormwood on cognac, you need 50 grams of chopped plant roots and a glass of cognac. The ingredients are mixed and placed in a water bath for 30 minutes to evaporate. After that, the product is filtered and sent to a dark place for 5 days.

For the treatment of papillomas, you can also prepare an herbal infusion, for which horsetail, lemon balm, dandelion roots, plantain and nettle are mixed in equal proportions (1 teaspoon each). The mixture is crushed, and then 3 tablespoons of herbs are poured with a liter of boiling water and everything is boiled for 10 minutes on low heat. After the infusion is removed from the stove, it must remain in place for several hours.

The finished tincture is used for ¼ glass for 7 days before meals. The tool strengthens the immune system, which in turn promotes the self-absorption of papillomas.

Soda for healing

Soda used to treat papillomas

Baking soda has long been used to treat many skin problems at home, including papillomas. A characteristic of soda is its ability to alkalize an acidic environment, which provokes a boost in immunity and the elimination of toxins, creating unfavorable conditions for bacteria and pathogenic microbes. As a result, viruses stop multiplying in the body and die. Soda is also known for its antiseptic and disinfectant properties, which are also useful in the treatment of papillomas. Soda is able to soften tissues, eliminate the symptoms of the virus and its manifestation - education. Soda used to treat HPV is used internally in the form of inhalations and topical lotions.

To prevent tumor malignancy and neoplasm degeneration into cancer, some traditional healers recommend drinking a solution of soda in milk. It is made from 1 cup of warm boiled milk and ¼ teaspoon of baking powder. A solution is used three times a day. With each subsequent intake, the mass fraction of soda increases slightly until the milk concentration reaches 1 tablespoon. However, drinking milk-soda solution is not permitted for people with gastrointestinal disorders.

Before using this prescription, you should consult a doctor.

Inhaling baking soda is a gentler immune stimulating technique. To inhale, you need to boil 1 liter of water, add 3 teaspoons of soda to boiling water, stir, lean over the pan, put a towel on your head so that no steam can escape, and inhale soda fumes until the water cools. Inhalation is carried out several times a day for 5 days.

Laundry soap

Laundry soap has a drying effect on the skin - it removes moisture, leads to drying out and the gradual death of the cells. This property is very useful when removing papillomas at home. It is the moisture in the cells of the neoplasm that contributes to its vital activity. When it stops flowing, the wart dries up and disappears.

The most common method of treating papillomas with laundry soap is night application in the area of ​​the neoplasm. After bathing, the area is moistened with papilloma and abundantly rubbed with laundry soap without damaging the structure.

After applying a thick layer of soap, you need to wait until it dries and you can go to bed. In the morning the soap is washed off with clean water and in the evening the process is repeated.

Specificity of treatment in women

Lesion of the internal and external genital organs

how to treat papillomas in women

In modern medicine, papillomatosis therapy in women is carried out by various methods, but it is still impossible to completely remove HPV from the body. Therefore, every treatment is aimed at the individual elimination of the clinical signs of the disease.

There are many similarities in treating HPV of the internal and external genital organs of women. The only difference is that if neoplasia is detected on the external genital organs, specialists can prescribe unidirectional immunomodulatory agents, and with HPV on the internal genital organs (mucous membranes), stronger drugs are used that prevent the development of oncopathology.

Treatment of genital papillomatosis in women can be done using destructive and therapeutic methods. The required method must be selected by a specialist in each individual case.

Intraductal papillomas

Due to the fact that intraductal papillomas are classified by experts as precancerous diseases of the mammary glands, a feature of their treatment is the use of exclusively surgical methods. In the case of papillary cystadenoma, surgeons perform sectoral resection of the mammary glands while removing tissue with modified ducts. Such an operation is performed through a periareolar incision, which in the future will make it possible to preserve both the shape and size of the breast without a mammoplasty.

If a woman is diagnosed with intraductal papillary cancer, a radical mastectomy is used to treat it.

To prevent oncology in the mammary gland, doctors recommend regularly undergoing mammological examinations, treating mastopathy in the early stages, and carefully considering dyshormonal and inflammatory diseases in the female genital area.

Treatment for men

Papilloma treatment in men

The treatment of HPV with manifestations on the male reproductive organs is carried out with drugs and surgical means. In this case, drug therapy is intended to suppress the virus, put it in an anabiotic state and strengthen the immune system.

Even small papillomas on male genitals do not go away on their own. Therefore, it is common to remove them surgically:

  • by electrocoagulation using electric current;
  • by freezing with liquid nitrogen - cryodestruction;
  • with a laser;
  • according to the method of radiosurgery - a non-contact method based on exposure to radio waves of a certain frequency;
  • according to the method of cautery with special chemical solutions;
  • conventional surgical removal with a scalpel;
  • with ointments that can remove deposits.

The method of removing papillomas on the male genital organs is selected individually depending on the features of the course of the infection. All of the above methods of destruction are recognized by doctors as reliable and can be performed without general anesthesia.

What to do if a papilloma is damaged?

If the surface of the papilloma is damaged, an inflammatory process can begin in the affected tissues. Outwardly, this is manifested by a change in the color of the structure, swelling, redness, burning and itching of the formation. An ichor begins to ooze from the wound, mixed with pus or a serous liquid that has an unpleasant odor. If the state of immunity is in a satisfactory state, then the place of the crack will soon dry up and no deviations will be visible. Otherwise, however, there is a risk of malignant tumors.

Gross trauma (burns, scratches, scrapes) can cause the spread of HPV to neighboring tissues and the growth of new lesions. Such a process is even more predisposed to oncological degeneration.

If the papilloma is nevertheless injured, a sterile swab made of bandage or cotton wool, previously moistened in a 3% hydrogen peroxide solution, must be quickly applied and maintained for at least 10-15 minutes. After the blood stops, the wound is treated with alcohol to disinfect the surface of the skin and prevent infections and fungi from getting into the wound. In the absence of alcohol, disinfection is carried out with iodine or brilliant green, although in the future these funds will affect the monitoring of the condition of the wound.

In the event of significant bleeding due to damage to the papilloma, trauma to the angioma is diagnosed - proliferation of blood vessels of a benign character. Damage to the angioma is not dangerous, since oncology does not develop due to such a pathology.

Where to go in case of illness?

If you find various formations on the skin at the first stage, you need to visit a dermatologist. This doctor will carry out the necessary diagnoses, determine the type of virus and determine the further actions of the patient.

Most often, dermatologists are of the opinion that the earlier the papilloma is removed, the lower the risk of dangerous consequences, but everything is individual. The dermatologist will tell the patient which specialist should perform the removal and which technique is better to prefer in this particular case. The doctor will also determine the further treatment regimen, after which a consultation with the surgeon is already possible.

If papillomas appear in the genital area, you should seek advice from a dermatovenerologist. If the formations in the anus are localized, then a proctologist will deal with the treatment of such a pathology. In the case of papillomas on the mucous membranes of the ENT organs or the oral cavity, the patient is referred to an ENT doctor. Genital papillomas in men are treated by a urologist or dermatovenerologist, and in women, a gynecologist looks into these problems.
