In the clinic, you can remove a mole, wart or papilloma of any size. We will examine the skin lesion and choose the appropriate method of removal. If there is a suspicion of malignant formation of a mole or papilloma, after removal we will send them for histological examination.
When to remove moles, warts and papillomas
Warts and papillomas are recommended to be removed in any case. When they are in areas of contact with clothing, they can be injured and cause pain or just look unsightly. In addition, some warts and papillomas tend to increase in size.
With the removal of moles, everything is not so simple. If the mole is flat, not injured, and does not change in size or color, it does not need to be removed. For your own convenience, it is better to remove moles that are located on the scalp, in places of contact with clothes and other areas where they are constantly injured.
If you notice the following signs, you should immediately contact a dermatologist:
- the mole has grown sharply - several millimeters in diameter in a short time;
- became dark and appeared shiny or uneven in color;
- began to bleed;
- changed shape;
- the hair fell out from the mole, although it was growing before.
All these are possible manifestations of the degeneration of a mole into a malignant neoplasm. If they appear, immediately consult a doctor: he will examine the mole under a special microscope - a dermatoscope, remove it if necessary, and then send the material for histological examination. This will help you find out if the mole has really turned into a tumor and if further treatment is needed.
Why do warts appear and how do cauterizing agents work on them?
Such skin defects appear due to the action of the papillomavirus, which is present in many people. This type of virus is transmitted in many ways, including contact and sexual contact. As long as the human immune system works normally, the infection does not manifest itself in any way, but when the defense is weakened, as well as when provoking factors appear, warts immediately appear on the skin. Neoplasms appear as nodules or plaques that grow over time and coalesce into colonies.
The provoking factors for the appearance of papillomas and condylomas are:
- Metabolic disorders.
- Weakening of the immune system.
- Sweating caused by wearing too warm clothes or shoes.
- The presence of other viral diseases.
This plant has been used since ancient times. Its juice, as well as tinctures, ointments and oils, are used to fight various skin diseases, because at that time there were simply no other ways to get rid of these problems. Researchers believe it's hard to say why the burning effect of celandine produces such an effect. Some believe that the alkaloids contained in the juice are to blame. Others agree that the immune system's reaction to the drug is the cause. It works quite effectively on warts by removing them.
The fight against warts must be carried out comprehensively and include not only drugs aimed at eliminating the external manifestations, but also drugs to eliminate the causative virus. Celandine belongs to the first category.
What warts can be removed using celandine? This medicine is natural and therefore can be used to treat almost any tumor. However, there are some exceptions:
- The warts in the intimate area cannot be burned, as the skin in these places is quite delicate and the use of this product will cause burns.
- Celandine does not help in the treatment of malignant (oncological) formations.
If you notice that the wart itches, peels or swells, be sure to consult a doctor before treating it. You probably have a completely different condition that is unrelated to warts.
Is it necessary to remove papillomas at all?
Small moles that do not protrude above the surface of the body sometimes look very attractive, which certainly cannot be said about papillomas. They are a source of discomfort because they grow in places where the skin is in constant contact with clothes and other parts of the body. Papillomas are often injured: when cracked, any of them can become a source of bleeding. Sometimes, when an infectious agent is attached, the papilloma and surrounding tissues become inflamed, which leads to undesirable consequences.
It is known that when the papillomavirus accumulates in the wart for a long time, it can cause genetic changes in the epithelial cells of the skin. In a genetic mutation, cells divide uncontrollably and the affected area of skin begins to grow. All these factors contribute to the beginning of the oncological process, so papillomas must be removed as quickly as possible. In addition, now there are many modern methods that allow you to do this quickly, painlessly and effectively.
How to remove a wart with yellow spots
In order to obtain the active drug, the marigolds are collected during the flowering period (May, June) in clean places, away from roads and industrial plants. If you have access to such plants, then the best method of removing warts is to scald them with fresh juice 3-5 times a day until the growth disappears.
This removal method is simple and painless. Pick a stalk of celandine and yellow juice immediately appears on the cut. This juice should be applied to the wart soaked in hot water (to enhance the effect) several times a day.
The juice should be applied directly to the wart without getting on healthy skin. The growth will first turn black, then decrease in size, and then disappear completely. This is the best and most effective way.
But you can use celandine tincture or its oil. This is when warts appear in the winter and there is no fresh juice. These preparations are prepared in advance in the summer and should be infused for 2-3 weeks in a dark place.
This plant is considered a very effective remedy, but there are also contraindications for its use, so you should pay attention to who should not be treated with celandine.
- Individual intolerance.
- During pregnancy.
- Nursing mothers.
- Children under 5 years old.
- For bronchial asthma.
- For epilepsy.
Why should you remove papillomas and warts?
For the most part, benign neoplasms such as papillomas and warts do not cause direct harm to health. Some papillomas can remain on the skin for decades without changing their appearance or increasing in size. However, they create certain difficulties and risks. Thus, the wart on the leg often tends to grow and over time begins to poison life with daily pain when walking. Warts on the fingers (they often appear in children) or hanging papillomas in skin folds in women can lead to soft tissue injury. For example, if the papillomas are located in the chest or back area, then in the process of constant friction (for example, against a belt or bra clasp), neoplasms can accidentally break off, bleed and become inflamed. Often others begin to appear near one papilloma.
There is an even more serious reason for the timely removal of tumors. Among the numerous strains of papillomavirus, non-oncogenic, weakly oncogenic and high oncogenic HPV types are known. The latter are at risk of degeneration: neoplasms that appear due to their fault can turn from benign to malignant over time. With the timely removal of such tumors, skin cancer can be prevented.
The problem also lies in the fact that an ordinary person can mistake another, more dangerous neoplasm for a papilloma or a wart and start self-treatment or simply not pay attention to it. Therefore, with all questions and doubts, it is important to go to a specialist (dermatologist), he will perform a diagnosis, determine the origin of the tumors, the degree of danger, and then offer treatment methods that are optimal in this case.
It is strongly not recommended to remove papillomas and warts yourself without first examining a specialist: this may not only not bring the desired effect, but also worsen the problem (especially you should not tear off or cut off the growths).
Cosmetologist's opinion: "Of course, viral warts require timely treatment, otherwise the process can spread significantly on the skin and also lead to infection of the surrounding people. As for papillomas, the formations must be removed to prevent their growth, trauma, possible infection and for aesthetic reasons. "
Recovery period after papilloma removal
Regardless of the method of surgery for genital warts, the procedure is followed by a course of rehabilitation, during which the patient must follow the following recommendations:
- Refrain from intimacy;
- Women are not recommended to use vaginal suppositories and tampons;
- Do not shower;
- Do not wet the postoperative wound during the first 2-3 days;
- Do not scratch or subject the resulting bark to mechanical impact;
- Maintain regular genital hygiene and treat the surgical wound with prescribed medications.
Compliance with these recommendations will reduce the recovery period and prevent the occurrence of adverse complications (infection, bleeding, inflammation of the postoperative wound).
