Papillary lesions cause discomfort not only due to external changes in the skin. Many papillomas are at risk of injury, including friction and infection. All these factors can provoke the spread of rashes and malignancy of the cells of the neoplasm. Before starting treatment, a mandatory diagnosis is made to identify the causes and nature of the structure of the build-up. What causes papilloma on the body, what does the body indicate about? Let's explore this in this article.
Papillomas on the body - what do they mean, what does the body say?
Papilloma on the body means only one indisputable fact - a person has become a carrier of papillomavirus infection with a progressive course. The main route of transmission of the virus in the body is sexual, but the infection is possible through kissing. Is, shaking hands, or coming in contact on the way to a house.
The known types of papillomas on the body differ from each other in structural characteristics, color, size, and density. Of course, not all carriers of viral infections suffer from multiple or single rashes on the body. Activation of pathogenic viral activity usuallyBut it is caused by a constant decrease in immunity.
Some patients also compare papillomas to moles, however, papillomas have several basic differences:
- presence of vascular component;
- preferential places in places of friction, sweating;
- Loose and soft structure.
Papilloma looks like a papillary enlargement on a pedicle. The main risk of papilloma is cancerous transformation of skin cells.
The risk group includes those with agitated clinical and life histories, as well as those who have cancer cases of close relatives.
Papillomas rarely cause a person to feel anxious, without pain and local symptomatic manifestations. Physicians also term neoplasms as "time bombs" that can be spontaneously fatal under the influence of various negative factors.
The virus may not show up for years, but a person with strong immunity is also a carrier of infection. More often, it is men who become the culprits of a woman's infection during unprotected intercourse.
Main reasons for presence
The main cause of body rashes is the defeat of the body with human papillomavirus infection.
Possible factors for viral activity are:
- chronic diseases of internal organs and systems;
- skin trauma of any origin;
- skin infection;
- allergic disease;
- autoimmune state of an innate nature;
- genital infections and inflammatory diseases of the genital system.
Any pathological process and dysfunction of internal organs can suppress immune system activity, suppress general health, and weaken the body. With the persistent decrease in immune forces, the virus initiates pathogenic activity. Is, slowly replaces the DNA of viral healthy cells. Thus, the regenerative process is disrupted at the cellular level, chaotic healing of the cells occurs and the neoplasm begins to form.
The virus actively affects the deeper layers of the epidermis, therefore, the first symptom of a developing infection is the emergence of papillomatous foci.
peculiarity of presence in men
Frequent localization of papilloma in males - genitalia and sex, face, armpits.
Hypothermia and greater susceptibility to negative external factors are considered common factors to decrease immunity in men:
- bad habits (tobacco, alcohol);
- Specialty of labor (heavy production work, hot shops, radioactivity):
- increased stress factor;
- active sex life (especially at a young age).
HPV in men is often associated with other sexually transmitted infections. Infection often occurs in men who neglect the use of contraceptive methods. However, HPV virus penetrates the body even when using condoms. Can do.
The main HPV prevention vaccination. It is recommended to inject the vaccine three times at the time of puberty, long before the onset of active sexual activity. Doctors recommend starting vaccination for children aged 10–12.
due to multiple papillomas
Many papillomas on the body of limited or extensive localization indicate a decrease in the body. Usually, multiple rashes are associated with general malaise, drowsiness and unexplained weakness of the patient.
Viral activity usually occurs extensively in layers of the epidermis, therefore, the presence of new papillary foci occurs rapidly.
Often, the virus itself can provoke the development of various diseases that only complicate the course of the infectious process.
The following diseases and conditions can be a trigger for generalized spread of papillary fish throughout the body:
- acute infectious processes of any nature and place;
- sunburn, tanning bed in open bed or overuse of tanning;
- metabolic disorders;
- insufficient nutrition, lack of nutritional diet, unbalanced diet;
- oncological tumors of internal organs, skin;
- HIV or AIDS;
- Chronic mental-emotional instability, stress, mental disorder;
- Age-related changes.
Rapid spread of papilloma throughout the body is provoked by the patient's overweight. With increased weight, the sweat glands become active, so papillomas in the armpits and folds of the skin are more noticeable. Considering the noticeable spread of infectious growth with increased weight in the hot summer months.
Neoplasm can not only cause serious diseases and autoimmune conditions. Bad habits, intense physical activity, severe stress can also provoke the activity of a viral infection.
When a skin appears in neoplasm patients, a natural question arises about the treatment strategy and removal of growth.
Medical Features
A viral infection can be present in the body without visible manifestations for a long time. In patients, against the background of good health, the virus may never appear in their life. Weak symptoms firstOccur with immunity.
Doctors do not recommend starting self-treatment without diagnosis and medical advice for several reasons:
- It is visually impossible to determine the structure and nature of the neoplasm;
- The patient is not able to assess the level of oncogenic hazard;
- Inadequate medical conditions with certain means may exacerbate, for example, burns, secondary infections.
Differential diagnosis significantly improves medical outcomes in relation to skin lesions, as it identifies the nature of the rashes and allows you to choose the only adequate treatment.
Modern dermatology and cosmetology provide two main methods of removing papilloma on the body:
- drug therapy- use of local and systemic drugs;
- Surgical removal- Use of latest hardware techniques and traditional surgery.
In the first case, a course of antiviral and immunomodulatory therapy should be prescribed. These drugs are necessary for papillomas on the body to prevent viral activity and improve the patient's immune status.
Local treatment does not always bring the expected results, so, with conservative therapy, physicians offer several surgical techniques:
- scalpel excision;
- Removal by radio wave method;
- laser removal of papilloma;
- electrocoagulation;
- exposure to chemical solutions;
- liquid nitrogen freezing.
No surgery can control the recurrent neoplasm, so you should definitely take a course of active antiviral therapy.
With treatment, it is important to maintain a healthy lifestyle, diet, sleep and wakefulness. Most patients rarely pay attention to these recommendations, and their implementation is very important for successful treatment of HPV.
The human papillomavirus by itself does not pose a threat, but is always at risk of malignant neoplastic cells.
To reduce HPV infection, careful adherence to intimate and personal hygiene, serialization in sexual relationships is recommended. Timely diagnosis significantly reduces the risk of developing any complications.
