Viral formations that grow on open areas of the body - papillomas and warts are perceived by many as a cosmetic defect. Removal of these neoplasms is possible in several ways, traditional medicine can also be attributed to them.
But before you start using "grandmother's recipes" in practice, you need to know exactly which papillomas can be removed by yourself and what needs to be done to prevent them from growing again.
Why do they appear?
Papillomas appear as a result of human infection with the smallest microorganism - the human papillomavirus or HPV for short.
Infection can occur in several ways. This is sexual contact, normal and from mother to fetus.
HPV infection does not always lead to the appearance of unpleasant-looking growths.
To activate the pathogen, a provocative effect of one of several negative factors is necessary - a decrease in immunity, chronic diseases of the digestive tract, prolonged stress, hormonal failure.
The activation of the virus leads to the fact that it begins to multiply actively in the epithelium, changes the structure of the cells of this layer of the skin, and as a result, a small tumor begins to appear in the body.
It can take the form of flat or filiform papillomas, warts, genital warts growing in the genital area, plantar papillomas on the feet.
The main risk of the formation of papillomas in the body lies in the possibility of injury and infection.
Condylomas on the external and internal genitals can form in the presence of oncogenic strains of HPV in the body and therefore can indicate the possibility of developing cancer. There is also a risk of the appearance of multiple papillomas in the body from a first formation.
How to get rid of HPV at home?
