Treatment of warts and papillomas with drugs is a modern therapeutic technique. Thanks to the latest advances in science and medicine, pharmacies have a huge variety of products for the treatment of problem areas and for the fight against such neoplasms.
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 are more like moles. Almost all of them have short legs, with which they are attached to the surface. Outwardly, such elements do not look aesthetically pleasing, which makes them embarrassing and uncomfortable.
Neoplasms have very different forms: flat, pointed, stringy, mosaic. The color of the buildup is different from the skin itself: it can be slightly lighter or darker. This growth is caused by an increase in the number of elements in the upper layers of the epidermis in certain areas of the body.
This infection has been secret for a long time. The patient has only one complaint - the appearance of characteristic moles, warts. All the internal structures of the body are also attacked. It has been shown that with infectious lesions, different formations are revealed on the elements of the gastric, urea and cervical mucosa.
Drug therapy features
Preparations for removing papillomas are often used. The main therapy for this disease is surgical removal of the neoplasm. In this way, viral elements on the surface of the face, neck, arms and legs are removed. This is a radical method of removing warts, which is not always recommended. A gentler technique is the use of drugs for viral neoplasms. It has been proven that the correct, adequate and full use of the drug brings good results.
It is important to know and understand: there is no panacea for viruses. After infection, the pathogen remains in the body forever. The only thing that can be done is to control its activities. Modern medicines for removing papillomas allow you to stop the spread of pathogens and minimize the external manifestations of the disease.
If papillomas are detected, how to treat and what drugs to use, the doctor decides after examining the patient. Complex therapy with the correct intensity will quickly restore immunity. Drugs 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 price policy. In practice, there are 2 main groups of antipapiloma drugs of interest. They differ fundamentally in the mechanism of action on pathogens. These are local and systemic medicines that can be found in every pharmacy.
Local agents for external exposure are applied directly to the affected area: growth elements. Because of this, all modified structures quickly die, dry out and fall off on their own. Systemic drugs, which include tablets and capsules, have a depressant effect on the pathogen itself from the inside. That is why it is best to implement comprehensive measures to combat the disease: this is the only way to reliably stop the activity of the virus.
Very popular simple and affordable medicines, which include:
- salicylic acid (alcohol);
- tincture of iodine;
- medical pencil;
- castor oil (for warts);
- adhesive plaster for removing corns;
- ammonia;
- hydrogen peroxide;
- tea tree essential oil.
It has been proven that for external use on the skin against warts, it is best to use ointment elements. These valuable drugs, even at maximum doses, have minimal toxicity to the body. The drugs act exclusively in a local way. Growth after such exposure quickly disappears.
One of the most popular and inexpensive drugs for papilloma neoplasms from this group is a pencil. We are talking about a long-known drug based on silver compounds. This pencil is specially designed to combat warts and papillomas. This product is very easy to use, fast and durable.
Pencils are the drug of choice for many patients. It has a pronounced cauterizing, antibacterial and necrotic effect on neoplasms. It is a highly concentrated substance, so it should 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, scarring of the skin can occur. It is better not to use such a drug on the face, neck, genitals.
Immunostimulant tablets
One of the ways to combat the virus is the appointment of special drugs that have a stimulating effect on the patient. Such treatment is most recommended to be prescribed in severe diseases with frequent and prolonged relapses. Such a symptom indicates a weakening of the body, the depletion of its defenses. Therefore, it is necessary to prescribe drugs to restore immunity.
The list of drugs for complex therapy of viral relapse includes immunomodulators. The drugs effectively block the multiplication of the virus, destroying all diseased and damaged cellular elements. They exhibit a pronounced antiviral effect, while significantly strengthening the immune system.
Drugs to correct pathological malfunctions of the immune system are available in the form of tablets. The course of therapy should not exceed 4 weeks.
The therapeutic regimen and dosage of the drug are calculated individually. It all depends on the type of viral agent and the degree of damage. With ordinary papillomas, drug treatment is sufficient. If warts are observed on the skin, in addition to tablets, surgical intervention is indicated.
Homeopathy for HPV
All the time, to combat the signs of a viral invasion, they struggle with the help of available natural ingredients. Such therapy is very effective in the complex fight against the papilloma virus. Tinctures of ginseng, lemongrass or echinacea are in great demand by patients. Creams based on mummies are considered valuable. Herbal remedies are in great demand, as they act an order of magnitude more gently than industrial concentrated acids or bases.
Drug selection
To undergo papillomavirus treatment, it is recommended to consult a dermatologist. The therapeutic regimen depends on the location of the virus. If a number of neoplasms have appeared, for example, in intimate places - an examination and consultation with a gynecologist or andrologist. According to experts, self-medication of viral neoplasms is a great health risk. This is due to the fact that papilloma formations are often malignant.
Due to poorly chosen and inadequate therapies, new diseases recur rapidly. The correct choice of drug will provide:
- elimination of skin defects;
- strengthening of immunity, which is necessary to exclude relapse of the disease.
Human papillomavirus infection is one of the most common pathologies of our time. The causative agent is very persistent. It affects mainly mucosal structures. In order to successfully combat the manifestations of pathology, it is very important to undergo a comprehensive examination to determine the type of virus. This is the first step to finding an adequate and complete therapy. Modern techniques and approaches to treatment can only minimize external signs of infection.
