Papillomas are benign formations that can be localized anywhere on the skin and mucous membranes. Different means and methods are used to remove them - drugs, medicinal plants, surgical removal. Treatment of papilloma is more often done with folk remedies localized on the skin and carried out at home.
Folk remedies for papillomas are not always effective enough, so it is better to complement them with other methods of treatment.
Papillomas: what is it and how to treat it
Papillomas are benign tumors formed as a result of proliferation of epithelial cells. They can appear anywhere on the body:
- face - usually near the eyes;
- the neck;
- chest, abdomen, back;
- lower and upper limbs;
- anogenital zone;
- in the mucous membrane of the genital organs - the walls of the vagina and cervix in women, the penis in men;
- mucous membrane of the respiratory tract.
In most cases, papillomaviruses (human papillomavirus, HPV) are the cause. The disease can occur in both adults and children.
Treatment includes two main areas: removal of papillomas and fight against viral infection (including strengthening of the immune system). Various methods can be used for this, including traditional medicine recipes. The most effective treatment is a combined approach, that is, a combination of different methods.
Folk recipes: pros and cons
The use of folk methods is only one of the methods of treatment.
The main advantage of traditional medicine is accessibility. It can be treated at home, and the treatment does not require special costs.
There are also disadvantages that limit the use of folk recipes:
- Getting rid of warts can take several months, and the disease cannot be cured quickly. But even with long-term treatment, success is not guaranteed.
- Using aggressive products can cause skin burns and other complications.
- Contraindications to the use of certain medicinal herbs are often not taken into account during treatment, therefore, allergic reactions and side effects of the digestive system may occur.
Thus, treatment with folk remedies does not allow to quickly get rid of papilloma. However, with the right approach, home treatment can be effective.
What principles should be followed when choosing therapy:
- combining funds for internal and external use;
- record contraindications for use;
- frequency of use.
In addition, it is recommended not to limit yourself to the use of only folk remedies, because papilloma cannot be cured only by using them. It is more effective to combine their reception with basic therapy (correcting lifestyle, strengthening immunity), if necessary, with drug therapy or surgical removal.
Classification
