Fighting warts

Warts are skin lesions that look like a nodule, or papilla. Etiology is more often viral. Appear at any age, but more often - in children. Epithelial tumors can be caused by several viruses, some develop into malignant ones. Infection can "appear" in one wart, and can cause and numerous neoplasms, sometimes remaining for years, and sometimes - disappearing even without intervention.

A virus that grows benign, simple warts is a common virus, which is an elevated seal up to 10 mm in diameter, with uneven surfaces, clear boundaries and usually round shape.

Fighting warts is often delayed. Treatment depends on the funds themselves, on the type of formations, on the degree of their damage, and on the possibility of the appearance of new growths. Self-control of the disease is possible only on the condition that the formations are not malignant. Therefore, a doctor's consultation is mandatory.

Combating warts with a laser is the coagulation or evaporation of skin cells under the action of a beam. Removal is layer-by-layer, the duration depends on the localization and depth of formation (usually two minutes). Complications in the form of pigmentation or scarring are extremely rare. The fossa that appears on the skin at the site of the wart removal is aligned after two to three weeks. Local anesthesia.

Fighting warts with the use of a surgical coagulator is another, almost painless and common method, consisting in cutting off the formations and coagulating the surrounding tissues with a thin metal loop under the high-frequency current. Local anesthesia. Perhaps the appearance of a barely noticeable flat scar in the place of removal.

Fighting warts surgically (surgical excision) is appropriate in the case of extensive formations. The operation is simple. Local anesthesia. Sutures are removed after a week.

To reduce warts, you can use liquid nitrogen (cryodestruction). The agent is applied by cryoapplicator or a thin cotton swab. The wart becomes whiter, becomes denser. Then a gradually drying bubble appears. Usually, after a couple of weeks, only a light pink little spot reminds of a wart. Plantar formations will require several similar freezes.

Well, finally, several options for how to reduce the wart by the old folk ways.

1. Rub a garlic clove, stir the gruel in a teaspoon of acetic essence and add the flour for binding. Cover the wart with the resultant test, having previously covered the skin near the formation (ideally - with a band-aid, in which a hole is cut). Tie and leave for three days. Usually, only one procedure is enough, - the wart is "removed" along with the bandage.

2. Mix castor oil with regular baking soda (in half). Cut the warts with mush until they disappear.

3. The "dry" ice (the one in which the ice cream is stored) helps a lot. Apply it to the warts at least three times a day for a time that you can endure. Usually lasts for weeks.

4. Powder from dry chalk also displays warts in a week. But the formations must be chalked constantly. It is better to apply fixative bandages, changing them daily. To wet it is impossible.

5. Before going to sleep, drip acetic or salicylic acid on the wart.

6. Well helps and lubricating the juice of celandine or dandelion. But the process is long. The juice is only fresh.

In pharmacies, there are already ready funds ("Cryopharma", "Super Clean", "Wartner", "Maxivart"). Application according to the instructions.

Types of warts are different. Accordingly, the methods of treatment are also different. It is necessary to select them individually. Therefore, getting rid of warts is best still to entrust the doctor.
