Growths on the body, similar to light warts or spots on the legs, which appear out of nowhere and often disappear without any treatment, are papillomas.
The causative agent of the disease - the human papillomavirus - enters the body from the outside, it is unusually common: up to 80% of the world's population is its carrier!
Such a high rate is due to the fact that the infection occurs through tactile contact; it is almost impossible to limit the transmission of the virus.
Not every carrier pays attention to the disease and goes to the doctor, so removing papillomas at home is always important.
The nature of the papillomavirus
The insidious virus can be found anywhere: in the neck, armpits, under the chest, eyelids, abdomen and genitals. In most cases it is a benign formation. If a virus invades the cell chromosomes and integrates into the cell nucleus, it becomes malignant.
Before starting treatment, you should consult a doctor to find out the nature of the virus and then choose an acceptable method.
Who is at risk?
Modern man is haunted by chronic stress, illness and bad habits. In such difficult conditions, the immune system fails, the gates open wide for various infections and the papilloma virus is ready to attack. The main conditions for increasing the activity of the virus:
- intense stress;
- pregnancy;
- Serious illness;
- long-term use of drugs.
- old age;
- vitamin deficiency?
- Bad habits: smoking, alcohol.
- high unprotected sexual activity.
If there is at least one of the signs, the papilloma virus may flare up and unexpected skin growths may appear.
Routes of infection
Anyone can catch the virus. But there are factors in which infection is almost inevitable:
- mother-to-child transmission of the virus;
- unprotected sexual intercourse with a carrier.
- tactile contact with the patient.
- when sharing home appliances.
- visit the pool;
- penetration of the virus through wounds in the skin.
The carrier of the papillomavirus can live peacefully for years and not suspect its presence, enlightenment usually occurs when the immune system is weakened. The virus, then inactive in the basal layer of the epithelium, comes to the surface and takes the form of genital warts or flattened plaques. Living with nipples is not comfortable and is not aesthetically pleasing.
The most effective treatment is removal. You can not just cut the legs of the papillae or try to cut them, you can cause active growth and reproduction of growths, which grow into a malignant form.
At the first sign of infection, visit a dermatologist or try alternative therapies.
Homemade recipes
Self-removal removes only the superficial part, the papillary nucleus is not affected. To completely destroy the virus, you should be treated by a dermatologist. The most popular home remediation methods are:
- Celandine. The caustic juice of the plant burns the warts, the same can be done with the nipples. Two methods of treatment are known: tear a sheet of fellantine, lubricate the nipple with the juice that has come out and seal it with a plaster. Lubricate once every 2 days, after a while the nipple will dry and fall off. The second way: to make a "cocktail" from felandina, chaga and cordon. Freeze it in ice cubes and apply it on the plants three times a day for a few minutes.
- Kalanchoe pinnate is cut lengthwise, applied to nipples, bandaged and left overnight.
- "Garlic cream". Chop the garlic and mix the resulting mass with any cream in a ratio of 1: 2. Next, apply to a piece of bandage and fasten it to the growth, sticking it with a plaster. Leave on for 3 hours and then rinse with soap and water.
- Thermal springs. Pour boiling water over half a bucket of green chestnut leaves and then let them boil. Insist 12 hours. Prepare a bath from the resulting broth by adding water to a comfortable temperature. The treatment will last 2 weeks at a rate of 7 procedures every other day.
- Onion peel. Mix the dried peels in a jar with vinegar. Tie the jar with parchment or a thick cloth, keep it in the dark for 2 weeks. Remove the bark and dry it, tie it to the nipples at night. Remove the bandage in the morning and soften the skin with a greasy cream.
- Flower collection: 1 part violet tricolor, 1 part absinthe herb, 3 parts plane tree, 2 parts clover flowers, asparagus, reed root and dill seeds. Pour boiling water over the collection to make 1 part of the collection 7 parts boiling water. Insist day, strain, take 1 tbsp. spoon three times a day.
- Dandelion flower cologne. Fill a glass bottle with dandelion heads tightly. Pour triple cologne there and let it boil in the dark for 2 weeks. Transfer to a dark glass bottle, store in a cool, dark place. Lubricate the nipples with infusion 4-5 times a day until they disappear.
Lubricate the nipples with egg white that remains on the walls of the shell after pouring the egg. Collect it with a piece of bandage and apply to the nipple.
Superstitions to help
Ancient semi-mystical methods of removing papillomas have survived to this day. The strangest of them:
- Tie knots over the plants with a silk thread, stick the knotted thread on a cut potato and hide it where no one will find it. After a while, the potato will rot, and the nipples will disappear!
- Grate the plants with the potato cut in half: first with one half and then with the other. Put the halves together, put them in a dark place and try to forget them. The skin will peel after the potato decomposes.
- The most romantic way is in the moonlight. In the light of the waning moon late at night, rub the nipple on the surface illuminated by the moonlight and the growth will disappear.
Such seemingly unusual methods of treatment were applied by therapists in the old days and gave a positive result, corrected by repeated repetitions.
Today, papillomavirus carriers have access to a variety of medical treatments with the help of tinctures, decoctions and juice of medicinal herbs. When choosing any method, it is advisable to consult a doctor.
