The formation of viruses that grow on open areas of the body - papillomas and warts are considered by many to be cosmetic defects. The removal of these neoplasms is possible in several ways, traditional medicine can also be associated with them.
But before you start using "grandmother's recipe" in practice, you need to know exactly which papillomas can be removed by yourself and what to do so that they do not grow again.
Why do they appear?
Papillomas appear as a result of human infection with the smallest microorganism - human papillomavirus or HPV for short.
Infection can occur in several ways. This is sexual, normal and from mother to fetus.
HPV infection does not always lead to the appearance of tumors that look unpleasant.
To activate the pathogen, the provoking effect of one of several negative factors is required - decreased 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, changing the structure of the cells of this skin layer, and as a result, small tumors begin to appear on the body.
It can take the form of flat or filiform papilloma, warts, genital warts growing in the genital area, plantar papilloma on the feet.
The main danger of papilloma formation on the body lies in the possibility of injury and infection.
Condylomas on the external and internal genital organs can form in the presence of oncogenic strains of HPV in the body and therefore may indicate the possibility of getting cancer. There is also a risk of the appearance of multiple papillomas on the body from the first formation.
How to get rid of HPV at home?
You can also get rid of papillomas on the body at home using pharmaceutical preparations or some folk remedies. But before you start self-treatment, you need to make sure that the viral formation does not degenerate into a malignant tumor.
