Where do papillomas come from

The cause of these neoplasms is the human papillomavirus (HPV). According to World Health Organization statistics, more than 80% of the world’s population is infected with this virus. HPV spreads through close bodily contact, including during childbirth (from mother to child).

Why do papillomas grow

With age, small growths on the skin may increase in size. Due to hormonal changes in the body (for example, after pregnancy), papillomas become larger. Doctors note their active growth in patients with reduced immunity and metabolic disorders.

How to get rid of papillomas with a thread or rubber band

Yes, a papilloma can be removed with a thread or rubber band. These methods are called thread lift and papilloma ligation respectively. They are used to remove not only papillomas but also other skin growths such as miliums or fatty lumps.

Как избавиться от папиллом ниткой

The essence of the thread lift is that a thin thread is applied to the base of the papilloma and tightened, which leads to its detachment from the skin. Papilloma ligation is based on the same principle, only instead of a thread, a rubber band is used. Both methods are considered safe and minimally invasive, as they do not require the use of anesthesia and do not leave scars on the skin. This procedure requires a certain degree of professionalism and is practically impossible without assistance.

Before performing a thread lift or ligature, a doctor should be consulted to ensure that the papilloma is not malignant and that the method is appropriate for the particular case. It is also worth noting that these methods do not guarantee 100% removal, and in most cases a repeat procedure may be required

What happens to the papilloma virus after removal with a string or rubber band

After removing the neoplasm with a thread or rubber band, the papillomovirus remains in the body and can continue to multiply. However, if the papilloma has been completely removed, the probability of reappearance in the same place will not be high.

To prevent the reappearance of the neoplasm, it is important to strengthen the body’s immune system, as the immune system plays an important role in fighting viruses. This can be done by using folk remedies such as garlic, ginger, echinacea and others, as well as following a healthy lifestyle, including eating right, exercising and avoiding stressful situations.

It is also recommended that you check your skin regularly for new growths, and if any are found, see your doctor for consultation and removal.

What are the dangers of self-removal of papillomas

Self-removal can be dangerous, as an inexperienced person can cause damage to their skin and health. Some of the possible dangers of self removal include:

  1. Infection: If the instruments used for papilloma removal are not disinfected or unsterile, it can lead to skin infection.
  2. Bleeding: If a papilloma is not removed properly, it can bleed, especially if it is located on a bleeding area of the skin.
  3. Pain and scarring: Some removal methods, such as scorching or unprofessional ligation, can be painful and have the consequence of scarring.
  4. Reappearance: If a papilloma has not been completely removed, it may reappear in the same spot or nearby
  5. Risk of cancer: In rare cases, a papilloma can be malignant, so removing it on your own may put you at risk of developing skin cancer.

Therefore, if you are undecided how to get rid of papillomas, we recommend that you consult a dermatologist. Only the clinic will be able to perform the procedure safely and effectively.

What are the dangers of HPV

In medical science, all papillomaviruses are divided into types that correspond to a high and low risk of developing into cancer. This is how doctors assess the likelihood of developing cancer. The most dangerous types of HPV: 16, 18, 31, 33, 35, 35, 39, 45, 51, 51, 52, 56, 58, 59, 68, 69. According to the American Cancer Institute, it is types 16 and 18 that most often cause cervical cancer. The other HPV types also pose a risk for malignancies, but to a lesser extent.

Since there are more than 150 HPV variants, most papillomas are still benign and not life-threatening. Nevertheless, timely diagnosis is essential to detect dangerous forms. This makes it possible to diagnose cancer at an early or zero stage, when treatment will be most productive. Therefore, dermatologists advise all patients who have papillomas on the body to undergo special tests.

Papilloma diagnosis: HPV tests

The diagnosis of this disease is based on the result of the PAP test. Many patients have heard the term, but not everyone understands what it means.

What is a PAP test?  It is a Papanicolaou smear: during an examination, the gynecologist obtains a sample of cells from the patient’s cervix. To collect the cells, a special brush is used with which the doctor collects the smear for future analysis in the laboratory (PCR method). In this way, the PAP test is used to diagnose precancerous changes in epithelial cells.

Can a blood test show HPV?  The human papillomavirus does not penetrate the blood, so the infection process proceeds without the development of an inflammatory reaction. For this reason, blood tests are not used to clarify the diagnosis.

How are papillomas examined?  The doctor can prescribe a biopsy of the neoplasm with subsequent histological and cytological examination of the material obtained. The biopsy procedure allows you to make an accurate diagnosis, choose a way how to get rid of papillomas and determine whether it is a benign or malignant neoplasm.

Why is dermatoscopy necessary?  This is a method of examination that allows you to determine the nature of various skin neoplasms. The doctor performs the diagnosis with the help of a special device – dermatoscope.
