Treatment of warts and papillomas with drugs is a modern treatment technique. Thanks to the latest developments in science and medicine, all kinds of products for the care of problem areas and the fight against such neoplasms are in large quantities in pharmacies.
Brief information about papillomas
It is important to understand that the human papillomavirus (HPV) is a serious infection that is difficult to treat. Each type of drug against this virus has its own characteristics of use and effect. It is important to approach the problem correctly, taking into account the characteristics of the pathogen.
Papilloma elements are superficial neoplasms that look more like moles. Almost all of them have short legs with which they are attached to the surface. Externally, such elements do not look aesthetically pleasing, which makes them embarrassing and uncomfortable.
Neoplasms have a very different shape: flat, pointed, filamentous, mosaic. The color of the build-up is different from the skin itself: it may be slightly lighter or darker. These growths are due to an increase in the number of elements in the upper layer of the epidermis in a particular area of the body.
Infection is latent for a long time. The patient has only one complaint - the appearance of characteristic moles, warts. All internal structures of the body are also under attack. It has been proven that with an infectious lesion, different formations occur in the mucous elements of the stomach, urea and cervix.
Features of drug therapy
Preparations for removing papillomas are often used. The main treatment for this ailment is the surgical removal of neoplasms. In this way, viral elements on the face, neck, arms and legs are removed. This is a radical method of getting rid of warts, which is not always recommended. A gentler technique is the use of drugs for viral neoplasms. Correct, adequate and complete use of drugs has been proven to bring good results.
It is important to know and understand: There is no panacea for the virus. After infection, the pathogen remains in the body forever. The only thing that can be done is to check its activity. Modern drugs for removing papillomas allow you to stop the spread of the pathogen and minimize the external manifestations of the disease.
If a papilloma is detected, the doctor decides after examining the patient how to treat it and what drugs to use. Complex therapy of the right intensity will quickly restore immunity. Medicines for papillomas differ among themselves according to different criteria. In addition to the composition of the active substance and the manufacturer's company, they differ in their pricing policy. In practice, there are mainly 2 main groups of antipapilloma drugs in demand. They differ fundamentally in the mechanism of action on the pathogen. These are local and systemic drugs that can be found in every pharmacy.
For external exposure, local agents are applied directly to the affected areas: growth elements. Therefore, all changed structures quickly die, dry up and fall off on their own. Systemic drugs, including tablets and capsules, have a depressing effect on the pathogen itself from the inside. Therefore, it is best to take comprehensive measures to combat the disease: this is the only way to reliably stop the activity of the virus.
Simple and affordable drugs are especially popular, including:
- salicylic acid (alcohol);
- iodine tincture;
- medical pen;
- castor oil (for warts);
- adhesive plaster to remove corns;
- ammonia;
- hydrogen peroxide;
- tea tree essential oil.
It has been proven that it is best to use elements of ointment for external use on the skin against warts. These valuable drugs have minimal toxicity to the body, even at maximum doses. Medicines act only in a local way. The growth after such exposure is quickly lost.
One of the most popular and inexpensive drugs for papilloma neoplasms in this group is a pencil. We are talking about a long-known drug based on silver compounds. This pen is specifically designed to fight warts and papillomas. The product is extremely easy to use, fast and long-lasting.
The pen is the drug of choice for many patients. It has a pronounced cauterizing, antibacterial and necrotic effect on neoplasms. This is a very concentrated substance, so it must be applied gently without touching nearby healthy tissue. Otherwise, there is a risk of necrotization of healthy skin areas.
Before using the product, it is better to consult a specialist. If used incorrectly, burns and scarring may occur on the skin. It is better not to use such a remedy on the face, neck, genitals.
Tablet immunostimulants
One of the ways to fight the virus is the appointment of special drugs that have a stimulating effect on the patient. This type of therapy is most recommended to be prescribed in severe disease with frequent and prolonged relapses. These symptoms indicate the weakening of the body, the depletion of its defenses. Therefore, it becomes necessary to prescribe drugs to restore immunity.
The list of drugs for the complex treatment of viral relapse includes immunomodulators. Medicines effectively inhibit the reproduction of the virus, destroy all diseased and damaged cellular elements. They show a pronounced antiviral effect, while significantly strengthening the immune system.
A drug for correcting pathological disorders of the immune system is available in the form of tablets. The course of treatment should not exceed 4 weeks.
The treatment regimen and the dose of the drug are calculated individually. It all depends on the type of viral agent and the degree of damage. In ordinary papillomas, drug therapy is quite sufficient. If warts appear on the skin, in addition to tablets, surgical intervention is indicated.
Homeopathy for HPV
They have always fought against the signs of viral invasion with the help of natural ingredients at their disposal. This therapy is especially effective in the complex fight against the papilloma virus. Tinctures of ginseng, lemongrass or echinacea are especially in demand among patients. A cream based on mummy is considered valuable. Herbal remedies are in great demand, because they act much more gently than industrial concentrated acidic or alkaline drugs.
Drug selection
It is recommended to consult a dermatologist for treatment of papillomavirus. The treatment regimen depends on the location of the virus. For example, if a number of neoplasms appeared in intimate places - examination and consultation with a gynecologist or andrologist. According to experts, self-treatment of viral neoplasms is a huge health risk. This is because papilloma formations are often malignant.
Due to poorly chosen and inadequate treatment, a new relapse of the disease quickly begins. The right choice of the drug will allow:
- elimination of skin defects;
- strengthening immunity, which is necessary to exclude relapses of the disease.
Human papillomavirus infection is one of the most common pathologies of our time. The causative agent is extremely persistent. It mainly affects the mucous structures. In order to successfully combat the manifestations of pathology, it is extremely important to undergo a comprehensive examination to determine the type of virus. This is the first step in finding an adequate and complete therapy. Modern techniques and approaches to treatment can only minimize external signs of infection.
