Human papillomavirus infection is transmitted mainly through sexual contact. To date, more than 100 strains of viruses are known, which differ in the degree of oncogenicity. Recently, clinicians have begun to attribute any skin tumors, including papillomas, to a precancerous condition, which is why adequate treatment of papillomas in the body and early removal are so important.
Which doctor should I go to with nipples on my body?
Unfortunately, the human papillomavirus progresses to an asymptomatic form for a long time and even after the appearance of papillomas on the body is not expressed in any way.
Patients are accustomed to seeing a doctor only with clear annoying symptoms:
- pain,
- itch
- leakage of serous exudate, blood.
Often, such papillomavirus symptoms are characterized by malignancy or inflammation.
If tumors appear on the body, it is recommended to consult a general practitioner or a dermatologist directly. If a human papillomavirus is suspected, a dermatologist may refer you to an infectious disease specialist, venereologist, gynecologist or urologist.
With disturbing symptoms, consultation with oncologists is required.
How to stop the growth and cure papillomas in the body?
Removing the papillary lesions alone will not solve the HPV problem.
New tumors will reappear under favorable conditions:
- Exacerbation of chronic diseases.
- Colds or hypothermia.
- Stress factor?
- Long-term medication.
Unfortunately, it is impossible to completely remove the virus from the body, but modern medicine is able to provide a steady remission in relation to the further pathogenic activity of HPV strains.
Adequate drug treatment prevents the development of new papillomas and topical drugs destroy the structure of the papilloma and lead to its self-mutilation.
Tablets for papillomas on the body
The tablets are prescribed, if necessary, systemic treatment to stop the activity of viral strains. At the same time, they solve the problem of treating combined pathologies or other predisposing factors that could lead to the activation of the virus.
The following medications are prescribed to treat the manifestations of HPV:
- Immunostimulatory antiviral agents. The active substances suppress the pathogenic viral activity in a short time. Along with the antiviral effect, the drugs stimulate the production of their own antibodies that fight the virus and completely eliminate the strains.
- Antiviral drugs of plant origin. The substances effectively fight the viral infection; after a few days of use, they destroy viral strains at the DNA level. These funds are already received on the first day of a recurring growth. Side effects include nausea, indigestion 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 performance immunomodulators. Given that the growth and reproduction of papillomas is possible only in the context of reduced immunity, prescribing drugs is coincidental. The daily dose is 1 tab. 4 times a day. The tablets are not prescribed during pregnancy and in children under 10 years of age.
- Broad-spectrum tablets that are extremely effective against HPV, fungal infection, pathogenic microorganisms. The drugs enhance the effectiveness of other antiviral drugs, practically have no contraindications. The course of treatment is long in 14-21 days.
HPV tablets are taken strictly after the appointment of the treating physician. This is due to the oral administration, the passage of the drug through the digestive tract and the possible negative effect of the tablets on the condition of the internal organs and systems.
Creams and ointments
Topical anti-papilloma preparations on the body can be used independently at home, which greatly simplifies treatment. In contrast to the use of tablets, ointments directly affect the papilla foci, destroying the DNA of the virus and normalizing the adequate regeneration of cells.
There are several main medications that can be used at home:
- Salicylic ointment. For treatment, an agent with an active substance concentration of 60% is used. The course of treatment depends on the effectiveness of the treatment. Thus, the treatment is continued 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 hurt, but will have a strong bactericidal and regenerative effect.
- Oxolinate paint 3%. The main difference from nasal ointment is the concentration of the active substance. To remove papillomas, you need 3% oxolin. The drug has a strong antiviral effect, prevents the appearance of new papillae.
- Ointment with interferon. Effective local immunomodulators that actively enhance local immunity. The active substance is human interferon, which has antiviral activity. A feature is the absence of contraindications, therefore, the agent is widely used in pediatric practice.
- Zinc ointment. The drug is effective against many dermatological diseases, including papillomas and warts. Zinc paste is absorbent, astringent and anti-inflammatory. Liniment is based on zinc oxide, which dries the papillae, contributing to its rapid decline.
- 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 areas of the skin.
- Ointments with herbal ingredients. The funds increase local immunity, help increase the synthesis of its own interferon. Drugs destroy the structure of the papilloma, eliminate not only the external growth, but also the root of the tumor.
- Ointments with complex composition and antibiotics. The main ingredients are the antibiotic chloramphenicol and methyluracil, which belongs to the group of immunomodulators. Ointments contribute to the normal regeneration of skin cells, normalize the water balance in the structures of the skin. The general course of treatment is 4 weeks, 2-3 applications per day.
The general combination treatment lasts up to several weeks. Patients should take systemic medications along with topical agents to stop the viral process as soon as possible.
The course of antiviral therapy should not be interrupted!
As part of drug therapy, you need to follow a healthy lifestyle, eat right and drink vitamin supplements. It is an integrated approach to the treatment of HPV that allows you to maintain a stable immunity for a long time and prevent the appearance of new papillae in the body of various localizations.
Be healthy and happy!
