Papillomas appear on human skin as small oval neoplasms, which, although benign, still require timely treatment.
This is due to the fact that prolonged uncontrolled growth and spread of hyperplasia of epidermal structures can lead to malignant degeneration of skin growths and the development of precancerous lesions and oncological diseases.
The cause of the formation of papillomas and warts in the human body is exclusively viral in nature and is associated with infection with the human papilloma virus (HPV), of which there are more than 100 variants. Not only the location and size of the tumor, but also the risk of oncogenicity of skin growth depends on the HPV subtype. The activation of atypical cell growth can be triggered by a sharp decline in immunity, hormonal changes or stress and fatigue factors. A healthy person with a fully functioning immune system may not observe the formation and growth of papillomas, even if he is a carrier of a viral pathogen.
How to treat papillomas at home?
Due to the prevalence and relevance of the problem, many patients are wondering how to remove papilloma at home without risk to their health. This problem requires a rational and responsible approach, since numerous drugs and folk remedies have many contraindications and are not always 100% effective.
If you still decide to treat papilloma at home, it is advisable to first consult a doctor who will not only make a final diagnosis and exclude the possibility of confusing the skin defect with another disease, but also recommend the optimal home method of correction.
There are two main areas of recommendations that allow for the removal of papillomas at home:
- Medical correction of tumors with pharmaceutical products;
- Treatment of papilloma virus with folk remedies.
We will try to analyze the main aspects of both methods and determine the best hardware method for treating papillomas and warts.
Getting rid of papillomas at home with medications
The modern pharmaceutical industry offers patients many preparations that show some effectiveness in self-rejection of papillomas and warts. The most popular are substances that are called cryopharmaceuticals in medicine and provide rapid freezing of the skin defect, leading to its painless separation from the epidermal tissue. Such compositions should be used with extreme caution to remove papillomas at home, without harming healthy tissues and skin structures.
As a practical form of the drug for the destruction of epidermal tumors, special plasters (adhesive tapes) are produced, which are impregnated with certain compounds. Such "stickers" are stuck on a wart or papilloma and removed after three hours along with the skin growth. Ointments and gels can also have a certain effect, however, the probability of finally getting rid of papillomas at home with the help of medicines is no longerthan 50%.
Treatment of warts and papillomas with folk remedies
Traditional medicine offers many recipes that have been proven effective and also have a certain antiviral and destructive effect. When choosing a folk remedy for papillomas, you should pay attention to the following compositions:
- Potato juice.By drinking 100-200 grams of fresh potato juice every morning, the patient strengthens the immune system and improves overall health, which not only helps get rid of already formed papillomas, but also prevents the appearance of new growths.
- Celandine for papillomas.The product is based on the chemical destruction of the neoplasm with acid, which celandine juice is rich in. For the procedure, in addition to juice, you can use leaves or an infusion of this plant purchased at a pharmacy. During the manipulation, celandine products are specifically applied to the epidermal defect every two days, which leads to rejection of the neoplasm. When treating papillomas with celandine, precautions should be taken not to apply the product to healthy tissue.
- Treatment of papillomas with iodine.About 3 grams of iodine is mixed with an equal amount of aspirin and boric acid and diluted with alcohol. Regular use of this composition for papillomas leads to their elimination. Folk remedies for warts and papillomas based on iodine cannot be used in the eyelid area, as well as on the mucous membranes.
- Treatment of papillomas with garlic.This technique involves applying a piece of a garlic clove to the site of epidermal growth every day. Regular manipulations of this type promise to save the patient from papillomas of any localization, especially in the arm area.
- Treatment of papillomas with wormwood.Rather, the treatment of papillomas with folk remedies based on wormwood is aimed at strengthening the general condition of the body and, in particular, the immune system. A decoction of wormwood, tricolor violet and dill seeds is a wonderful general tonic and immunostimulating agent.
Before choosing a folk recipe, you should understand that it is impossible to carry out a complete and final treatment of the human papilloma virus with folk remedies and all the compositions described above may not be effective for a particular patient.
Modern medicine offers a universal, safe and painless way to remove papillomas based on laser exposure. Laser therapy is widely used both in our country and in European clinics and allows the final removal of papillomas without leaving scars on the skin.
