Papilloma infection of the penis from the point of spread of the disease is an infectious disease that requires mandatory treatment. A papilloma on the penis resembles a neoplasm that can form both on the surface of the mucous membrane and on the skin of this organ. This localizationIn addition, the neoplasm can spread to other parts of the human body. The evolution of the virus is chronic.
Papillomas that form on the penis can enter the body in several ways:
- during unprotected intercourse;
- With close contact with an infected person in the everyday sense.
Like many other viral infections, the development of this disease has its own incubation period, which has a long time frame - from a month to a year.
Although outwardly, to the uninformed, the papilloma may seem similar to an ordinary wart, it is not at all difficult to distinguish. This type of neoplasm has a flat or mushroom shape.
Papillomas that appear on the penis are almost always the result of transmission of the virus during sexual intercourse. Papillomas on the head are not the only place of localization of the disease, neoplasms can form on the surface of the coronal groove or even on the bridle.
Characteristic symptoms of papillomas on the penis
This type of viral disease is extremely dangerous. Due to a pre-cancerous condition, papillomas on the penis can be a source of serious threat to the health and life of the patient, these neoplasms can also degenerate into cancer of the first stage.
Since the appearance of papillomas on the penis raises the concerns of doctors about the occurrence of cancer, with primary symptoms, immediate treatment should be carried out without delay. This disease has a high rate of transformation into malignant cancerous neoplasms, therefore, the methods used to combat papillomas should be highly effective and radical.
The process of degeneration is localized in the region of the inner layer of the foreskin or in the epithelium of the head itself. The symptoms of the disease and the methods of treatment are the same in both cases.
The sequence of development of tumor transformation is as follows:
- Phimosis appears (if not treated, the disease reaches a serious stage);
- There is an accumulation of smegma in the area of the foreskin sac (in addition, the penetration of urine into this area accelerates the growth of tumors and provokes further infection);
- In the next stage, the head and flesh become swollen;
- After the onset of erosion, the doctor can already diagnose the presence of papillomas on the penis, which turn into cancer.
disease treatment method
Complete disposal of papillomas on the penis is its removal. For this methods of laser and radio wave surgery are used. Cryosurgery is also quite effective, removal with a scalpel, sometimes with drugs (cytotoxic drugs) with chemicals or "destruction" is possible.
Among the above methods, the most effective is radio wave surgery, which has a high rate of safety, painlessness and accuracy. No scars or scars are left on the body as a result of this type of operation.
When fighting papillomas, do not forget about its origin. The use of antiviral drugs will not be superfluous. They can be an excellent support not only for the body's immune system, but also significantly raising the level of virus concentration in the bloodaffect, thereby reducing its number.
Papilloma is a very insidious disease, it can be completely asymptomatic for a long time without any external manifestations. Patients, both young and old, are no exception; This disease occurs equally in both.
The strongest stress to the body, a long course of drug treatment, which can reduce the effectiveness of the immune system, as well as transferred infectious diseases can exacerbate the disease.
