When papillomas grow in the body, the body signals what is going on

Papillomas appear - this is a signal about the processes occurring in the body, which require urgent attention and consultation with a specialist. Papillomas are benign growths that every third person on the planet is familiar with. In most cases, such elements cause only cosmetic discomfort, but sometimes can lead to the development of dangerous diseases.

The mechanism of appearance of papillomas

Papillomas, condylomata and warts are formations in the human body caused by infection with the papilloma virus. An infectious pathogen is transmitted from a carrier to a healthy person in three ways:

  1. To a child born at birth. This happens when pregnant women have genital warts. As a result, papillomas form in the baby's mouth, throat, larynx, nose and respiratory tract.
  2. Through home contacts. In order to be infected with the papilloma virus, it is enough to be in close contact with the belongings of a person with physical education.
  3. During sexual intercourse. The most common type of infection. As a rule, the result of sexual intercourse with the carrier are warts in intimate places: anal and genital areas. When detected, you should contact a gynecologist immediately to avoid undesirable consequences: degeneration into a neoplasm due to careless behavior, trauma, which includes the possibility of developing a cancerous tumor.

A small, invisible damage to the skin or mucous membranes is enough to penetrate a person's blood.

For this reason, even protected sex cannot prevent the disease.

Causes of papillomas

Human papillomavirus is a highly contagious disease. It is almost impossible to prevent infection. In the modern world, 8 out of 10 people have HPV. Fewer people deal with skin growths.

To activate HPV, the body's natural defenses must be weakened. The appearance of papillomas in the body occurs before the influence of external and internal factors.

External factors

The causes of papilloma in the body can be different. Everything that a person is exposed to can be attributed to foreign saboteurs:

  1. Use of cosmetics, hygienic devices, personal belongings. These include underwear, toothbrushes, towels, ordinary razors, manicure scissors, decorative cosmetics.
  2. Visit common baths: pools, baths, saunas, beaches. Walking barefoot increases the risk of skin damage.
  3. Salon and medical procedures. Lack of sanitary standards in establishments where reusable devices are used contributes to the spread of viral infections. You can get it in the cosmetologist's office while getting a piercing. The eyelash extension procedure, which has been popular in recent years, will cause the appearance of growths on the eyelids.
  4. Excessive sweating and wearing tight clothes. Sweat causes micro-cracks in the skin. The virus penetrates such lesions, papillomas appear in problem areas. People notice an increase in warts in the armpits (filamentous papillomas), under the breasts (growing suspensions), in the lower abdomen and groin area.
  5. Direct contact with organizations. Touch virus can spread throughout the body and increase the number of warts.
  6. A woman transmits human papillomavirus to her baby through the birth canal. If the growth is in the mother's genital area, cervix, or vagina, the baby is more likely to be born infected. This can happen if papillomas are in the mother's breast.
  7. Sexual intercourse. A common form of HPV transmission from one partner to another. The more sexual partners a person has, the higher the chances of contracting a viral infection.

Papillomavirus infection is not difficult. Man cannot protect himself from all provocative factors. Internal changes in the body must be triggered to activate the virus.

Internal factors

Internal causes include processes that reduce immunity and activate the infection.

  1. Acute body processes and pill taking. During treatment, the body's ability to resist pathogens independently is suppressed.
  2. Stress. Any psychological shock or experience causes a weakening of protective functions. As a result of a strong experience or emotional outburst, signals of various diseases appear, for example, the appearance of warts.
  3. Hypothermia or overheating. Body forces are used to establish normal body temperature. It is sensitive to any external factor.
  4. Pregnancy in women. After pregnancy, a woman's body must weaken its immune system to prevent rejection of the fetus. Against the background of such a situation, a favorable environment for various infectious diseases, the symptoms of which have not been observed before, often emerges. Sometimes after birth, the body heals, suppresses pathogenic processes, and the growths disappear on their own. It is not recommended to remove the growths at this stage, most removal methods are invasive.
  5. Hormonal changes. It is possible as a result of puberty, pregnancy, breastfeeding, menopause or illness.
  6. Poor nutrition. Vitamin deficiency causes some or all of the vital systems to malfunction. Immunity decreases. People suffer from the onset of diseases in the autumn-winter period, when there is an acute shortage of useful products.
  7. Having bad habits. Alcohol and smoking reduce the ability to fight pathogens. According to doctors, addicted people suffer from papillomavirus.

Characteristics of manifestation in men and women

Viral moles do not differ significantly. It doesn't matter if the papillomas are on the head, neck, back, face, abdomen or limbs. There are some differences in the transmission of the virus and the damage to the genital area. The genitals have a sensitive covering and are easily injured during contact. According to experts, the anal canal is more likely to be traumatized. The head of the penis is considered stable. Many homosexuals suffer from genital warts (acute warts on the legs).

In girls, growths may appear on the papilla, labia, clitoris, or vaginal cavity.

If left untreated, warts can develop into papillomatosis. The danger for women is the defeat of cervical warts. If the infection is caused by a type of virus with a high oncogenicity, there is a risk of cancer.

In men, growths affect the pubic area, glans penis and upper layers of the epidermis. Growths can grow to the urethra, which leads to the development of inflammatory processes and problems with urination.

Prevention of papillomas

It is almost impossible to prevent the appearance of growth in the body. Following some rules will reduce the risk:

  • compliance with the norms of individual use of goods;
  • skin protection in public places;
  • proper nutrition;
  • giving up bad habits;
  • having a regular sexual partner.

Adult girls are recommended to be vaccinated against dangerous HPV strains with high oncogenicity. The vaccine is believed to prevent the development of cervical cancer. Home remedies can not provide recovery. Traditional treatments (herbal remedies) will eliminate the external symptoms, but will leave the cause of the disease. If you see growths on the body of unknown origin, you should consult a doctor in a medical institution. The doctor will prescribe a topical treatment against the virus.
