Papilloma virus treatment is a complex method of eliminating the symptoms of the infection and its causes by surgery and therapy. Safe tumors - papillomas can occur in different parts of the body or in the mucous membranes. In general, such formations are not harmful, but there are cases when they are necessary to prevent the formation of cancerous growths. Therefore, it is important to follow all the recommendations of traditional medicine and treat HPV properly.
Drug therapy
Papillomavirus cannot be completely cured in a short time. It is important to use antiviral and immunomodulatory drugs to solve the problem, which will prevent the spread of the disease and the formation of malignant tumors. All drugs in the form of tablets, injections or suppositories are prescribed to patients after diagnosis.
In the treatment of papillomavirus, drugs from the group of immunostimulants, antiviral agents, homeopathy, anti-tumor drugs and cytotoxic drugs are used. The first 3 groups of drugs can be in different forms (tablets, injections, etc. ) and are used to combat the cause of the disease, and the last 2 groups are used to gradually remove the formed formation.
The purpose of immunostimulants is to strengthen and activate the body's defenses, to promote the synthesis of antibodies against viruses and infections. If you use immunostimulants in combination with antiviral drugs, the effect of the latter will be several times higher.
The effectiveness of immunomodulators used in the treatment of HPV depends on the individual reactions of the patient's body and the composition of the treatment they contain. However, in most cases, with the obvious clinical manifestations of papillomavirus and the use of immunomodulators, the disease becomes regressive and may even disappear completely.

Surgical removal of papillomas
Can I delete
Some papillomas that form on the body do not cause any discomfort to a person, while others grow and cause cosmetic defects and physical discomfort. If there is discomfort from the papilloma, it is always removed, but whether it is worth removing the formation, if their appearance does not cause discomfort, it is necessary to understand in each case.
Coarization with liquid nitrogen
Today, the best way to get rid of papillomas is to burn them with liquid nitrogen or cryodestruction. The technique can be performed manually using a cryoprobe, which is often used in beauty salons.
Special equipment is required to use hardware cryodestruction techniques.
Cryodestruction is performed in the following stages:
- In the preparatory phase, for patients with a low threshold or an enlarged area of papilloma, the area affected by nitrogen is anesthetized with local anesthetic solutions. In other cases, patients are advised to take painkillers orally 1 hour before the procedure.
- During the freezing or cryodestruction phase, liquid nitrogen is injected into the papilloma area. In this case, the validity period for 1 point is only one or two seconds, so 40 papillomas in the body can be frozen in 5 minutes. Prior to cryodestruction, the patient is warned that if it freezes, it will itch where nitrogen is applied.
- In the final stage, the area where the skin is treated with liquid nitrogen is disinfected with disinfectants.
In each case, the need for cryodestruction is determined by the treating physician. If the patient is at risk of developing a malignant papilloma, it should be removed. Factors influencing the need for cryodestruction:
- mechanical disorder of the neoplasm;
- decreased immunity of the patient;
- use of oral contraceptives;
- bad habits of the patient;
- Localization of growths in areas that are constantly injured in the process of life.
Cryodestruction is also indicated in cases of aesthetic and physical discomfort of the patient due to the appearance of papilloma on the body.
The main contraindications to the use of cryodestruction are acute infections in the patient's body, inflammatory processes in the internal organs, atypical types of neoplasms, pathological intolerance to cold. Complications that may occur after removal of the wart with liquid nitrogen may include scarring and tissue pigmentation at the site of cryopreservation.
Oils and lotions
Today, you can buy many special lotions and oils in pharmacies to remove papillomas on the most sensitive areas of the skin.
To cauterize education, ointments should be used only in the complex therapy of the virus, which should be carried out with the help of tablets, immunomodulators and antiviral drugs.
Multivitamins that improve the state of the immune system and its readiness to produce antibodies against the virus do not prevent this.
Papilloma-fighting oil is an oil that contains salicylic acid, which has a keratolytic, bactericidal and restorative effect on damaged tissues. The agent can burn with it without affecting the body around it.
In any pharmacy you can find ready-made solutions for removing papillomas. With the help of such solutions it is necessary to make lotions, which lead to the death of pathogenic microflora in the skin area and eliminate papilloma.
Surgical approach
Surgical removal of the growth involves physical removal of the papilloma with a scalpel.
If the tumor is larger than 3 centimeters in diameter, surgery is indicated by doctors.
During the manipulation, the surgeon disinfects the plant environment and the growth with disinfectants, then performs manipulations with local anesthesia and goes directly to the removal of the neoplasm. After the papilloma is removed, it must be sent for histological examination to determine the oncological nature of its cells. Two weeks after the operation, the ulcer under the wart completely healed.
Key Indications for Papilloma Surgery:
- large formations, their deep and flat views;
- the need for immediate removal of papilloma;
- malignant tumor of papilloma;
- Inadmissibility of other methods of education exclusion.
The main advantages of classical papilloma extraction are complete elimination of the problem during 1 operation, in which case the probability of recurrence is low, safety of manipulation, no large list of contraindications and an acceptable price for most patients.
Disadvantages of surgical removal of papillomas include scarring, sometimes keloid scarring, prolonged postoperative recovery, rejection of ultraviolet light, and invasiveness of the procedure. Complications of the operation, such as redness, itching, scarring and fever at the site of excursion, may also be rare.
Laser destruction
The gold standard of modern medicine in the removal of neoplasms is reflected in the laser removal of papillomas. Until recently, the removal of papillomas left scars, but today laser technology allows you to preserve the beauty of the skin without visible changes.
The basis of laser therapy for papillomas is evaporation, that is, the conversion of light into tissue and the evaporation of life-giving moisture from its surface. The devices allow dosing the duration and intensity of exposure of the skin to radiation, depending on the nature of the neoplasm.
The laser removal procedure itself takes place in several stages:
- First, the doctor performs a dermatoscopy to determine the type of laser to be used;
- The affected area is treated with local anesthetics;
- The laser sterilization session lasts a few minutes; Upon completion of the
- procedure, the exposure area will be disinfected and sterile dressings will be applied if contact with clothing is possible;
- A patient outside the clinic provides assistance in wound healing.
After laser removal of papillomas, patients are not allowed to sunbathe, go to swimming pools and sanatoriums, take a bath, and use any cosmetics in the scar area.
These restrictions are temporary and patients can talk to a specialist before leaving the hospital.
Laser removal has a number of relative and absolute contraindications identified in each case. In general, this method is not intended for diabetes, the presence of herpes, fever, influenza and SARS, diseases of the blood-forming organs.
Traditional methods
Herbs
Since ancient times, doctors have used various herbal infusions to eliminate all forms of papillomatosis. Many recipes have survived to this day because they are effective and have no side effects.
A popular remedy for the papillary virus is Armenian tincture. With its help, it is possible to get rid of formations on the entire surface of the body. The most important thing is to know exactly when and how to harvest herbs for medicine.
Wormwood needs to be harvested in a certain way. The most useful of this herb are the leaves and flowers, but the thick stems are not suitable for tincture. More rarely, for medical purposes, it is recommended to remove the wormwood root from the ground. All harvested plant parts are laid on a flat surface for washing and drying. During drying, the grass should be periodically turned over to prevent it from drying out. The finished dried grass is stored in a dry glass jar with a tight lid.
The infusion against wormwood papillomas not only eliminates this problem, but also destroys pathogenic microflora and has a beneficial effect on the human stomach.
The course of infusion for papillomatosis is at least 2 weeks, followed by a break in treatment. Each of the available tinctures is taken orally 5 drops 6 times a day.
Wormwood tincture can be prepared in oil, alcohol or cognac. For the oil infusion you need 25 grams of oatmeal and 0. 5 cups of olive oil. The seeds are crushed in a coffee grinder and placed in a glass jar with boiling water. The seeds are poured with olive oil, mixed and covered with a tight lid. The mixture is brewed in a cool place for three days, filtered and ready for use.
Alcohol tincture is made from 100 grams of Armenian powder based on the leaves of crushed plants in a blender and 0. 5 liters of vodka. Mix everything, pour into a glass for 10–14 days, then filter and use as directed. The tincture should be stored in the refrigerator.
To make an Armenian tincture for cognac, you need 50 grams of crushed plant roots and a glass of cognac. The ingredients are mixed and sent to a water bath to evaporate for 30 minutes. The agent is then filtered and sent to a dark place for 5 days.
You can also prepare an herbal tincture for the treatment of papillomas, which is mixed in equal proportions (1 teaspoon each) of horseradish, lemon balm, dandelion root, plantain and nettle. The mixture is crushed, then 3 liters of boiling water is poured into 3 tablespoons of herbs and all this is boiled on low heat for 10 minutes. After removing the tincture from the heat, it should be insisted for several hours.
Ready tincture is applied to the glass ¼ 7 days before meals. The weapon strengthens the immune system, which in turn promotes the self-absorption of papillomas.
baking soda
Baking soda has long been used to treat many skin problems at home, including papillomas. The peculiarity of soda is its ability to alkalize the acidic environment, which strengthens the immune system, releases toxins and creates unfavorable conditions for bacteria and pathogenic microbes. As a result, the viruses in the body stop multiplying and die. The antiseptic and disinfectant effect of soda is also known, it is also useful in the treatment of papillomas. Soda has the ability to soften tissues, eliminate the symptoms of the virus, and its manifestation - education. Soda is used internally, inhaled and in the form of topical lotions to treat HPV.
To prevent cancer and neoplasms from turning into cancer, some folk healers recommend drinking a solution of baking soda in milk. It is made from 1 cup of warm boiled milk and ¼ teaspoon of baking soda. The solution is used three times a day, and with each subsequent drink, the mass fraction of soda increases slightly until it reaches 1 tablespoon. However, those with pathology of the gastrointestinal tract should not drink milk-soda solution.
Before using this prescription, consult your doctor.
Baking soda inhalation is suitable as an immunostimulatory method. For inhalation, boil 1 liter of water, add 3 teaspoons of baking soda to the boiling water, mix, bend over the bowl, put a towel on your head to prevent the steam from escaping, and breathe in the soda vapor until the water cools. Inhalation is performed several times a day for 5 days.
Laundry soap
Dirty soap affects the skin by drying it out - it absorbs moisture, causing the cells to dry out and eventually die. This property is very useful in removing papillomas at home. The moisture inside the cells of this neoplasm contributes to its vital activity, and if it stops, the wart dries up and disappears.
The most common method of treating papillomas with laundry soap is to apply it at night in the area of the neoplasm. After taking a bath, the area with the papilloma is moistened and filled with laundry soap without harming the body.
After applying a thick layer of soap, you can wait for it to dry and lie down on the bed. In the morning the soap is washed with normal water and in the evening the procedure is repeated.
Features of treatment in women
Injuries to the internal and external genitalia
In modern medicine, the treatment of papillomatosis in women is carried out according to various methods, but it is impossible to completely eliminate HPV from the body. Therefore, any treatment is aimed at eliminating the clinical symptoms of the disease individually.
There are many similarities in the treatment of HPV in women's internal and external genitalia. The only difference is that when neoplasms of the external genitalia are detected, specialists can prescribe one-way immunomodulatory drugs, and the internal genitals (mucous membranes) are treated with HPV, a powerful drug that prevents the development of oncopathology.
Treatment of female genital papillomatosis can be carried out by destructive and therapeutic methods. In each case, the specialist must select the appropriate method.
intraductal papillomas
Since intraductal papillomas are classified by specialists as pre-cancerous breast cancer, their treatment is exclusively surgical. In papillary cystadenoma, surgeons perform a sector resection of the mammary glands, while removing the tissue through modified canals. This operation is performed by periareolar incision, which allows you to maintain both the shape and size of the breast in the future without the use of mammoplasty.
If a woman is diagnosed with intraductal papillary cancer, radical mastectomy is used as a treatment.
To prevent breast cancer, doctors recommend regular mammograms, early treatment of mastopathy, and attention to dysormonal and inflammatory pathologies in the female genital area.
Treatment of men
Treatment for HPV in men with genital warts can be done with medication and surgery. In this case, medical therapy can help suppress the virus, bring it to an anabiotic state, and strengthen the immune system.
Even small papillomas in men's genitals do not go away on their own, so it is customary to remove them surgically:
- by electrocoagulation using electric current;
- by freezing with liquid nitrogen - cryodestruction;
- use of laser;
- radiosurgery - an unconnected method based on the effect of radio waves of a certain frequency;
- by cauterization with special chemical solutions;
- surgery with a conventional scalpel; Using construction oils
- .
The method of removal of papillomas in the male genitals is selected individually depending on the nature of the infection. All of the above methods of eradication can be performed by doctors without the use of general anesthesia, as they are considered reliable.
What to do if papilloma is damaged
When the surface of the papilloma is damaged, the inflammatory process in the affected tissues may begin. Appearance is characterized by discoloration, swelling, redness, burning and itching. Pus or serous fluid with an unpleasant odor begins to flow out of the ulcer. If the state of immunity is satisfactory, soon the tear will dry up and there will be no deviation. However, there is a risk of developing cancer.
Severe trauma (burns, scratches, scratches) can cause HPV to spread to adjacent tissues and cause new formations to grow. This process has a greater potential for oncological degradation.
If the papilloma is injured, quickly apply a sterile swab moistened with a 3% hydrogen peroxide solution made of cotton or cotton wool and hold for at least 10-15 minutes. After the bleeding has stopped, the wound is treated with alcohol, the surface of the skin is disinfected, and infection and fungus do not enter the wound. In the absence of alcohol, disinfection is carried out with the help of iodine or bright green, but in the future these means will prevent the control of the condition of the wound.
If there is a lot of bleeding due to papilloma, angioma is diagnosed as a traumatic enlargement of the blood vessels. Angioma is not dangerous, and oncology does not develop as a result of such pathology.
Where to go when you are sick
If you find any formations on the skin in the first stage, you should consult a dermatologist. This doctor will make the necessary diagnoses, determine the type of virus and determine the patient's further actions.
In most cases, dermatologists believe that the earlier the papilloma is removed, the lower the risk of serious complications, but all in isolation. The dermatologist will tell the patient which specialist to remove and which technique he or she prefers at the moment. The doctor will determine the further treatment regimen, after which you can consult a surgeon.
If you develop genital papilloma, you should consult a dermatovenereologist. If the formations are localized in the hole, the proctologist is engaged in the treatment of such pathology. In the case of papilloma of the mucous membranes of the ENT organs or oral cavity, the patient is referred to an otolaryngologist. Papillomas of the genitals in men are treated by a urologist or dermatovenereologist, and in women by a gynecologist.
