First aid for hand warts, plantar warts – plaster Salipod

Corns, corns, warts and thorns cause discomfort during walking and foot movements. In some cases, with prolonged squeezing, the neoplasms begin to hurt badly.

If left untreated, abscesses can form inside solid tumors. To prevent the development of unpleasant consequences, it is recommended to use Salipod Patch to remove dry growths. The patch allows you to soften dead cells and eliminate hyperkeratosis in a short time.

Tool description

According to the pharmacological classification, Salipod is included both in the group of dermatotropic agents and in the group of antiseptics. The drug for external use is used in the fight against transepidermal perforated changes:

• dry warts;
• corns;
• calluses;
• shipigami.

Due to the unique chemical structure, the product softens the stratum corneum of the skin, which consists of dead cells. After its removal, Salipod disinfects wounds and activates the regeneration of the dermis, as a result of which the healing of microcracks in the skin is accelerated and the size of bone growths on the big toe is reduced.

Compound

The chemical structure of Salipod is formed by the following components:

• salicylic acid;
• precipitated sulfur;
• pine rosin;
• natural rubber and dehydrated lanolin.

Dosage form

Adhesive plaster Salipod is a strip of different shapes glued together. On a wide area of ​​dense matter there is a small narrow patch on which medicinal substances are applied. There is a product with a size of 2×10 and 6×10 cm.

The adhesive part of the patch is covered with a protective layer that prevents excess dirt from getting onto the sticky part of Salipod. The dermatotropic agent is packed in a contour package without cells in the form of a tape of adhesive plasters fastened to each other. In this form can be stored from 2 to 10 patches.

Indications for use

The adhesive plaster is used for external use in order to eliminate the following dermatological neoplasms:

• thorn ;
• dry corn;
• warts;
• corns.

In addition to removing skin growths, Salipod can be glued over dense bumps that form on the joints of the big toes during prolonged walking in heels or in tight shoes. In addition, such a need arises in people whose profession is associated with standing work, and in patients with an excessive concentration of calcium salts in the body.

Mechanism of influence on neoplasms

In case of contact with the skin, the active substances applied to the patch have a keratolytic and antibacterial effect. Salicylic acid delivers sulfur ions to the deep layers of the dermis, where the chemical element activates the cellular renewal of the epithelial tissue. Thanks to this action, new cells begin to replace the old, keratinized tissues on the surface of the skin.

When applied externally, Salipod has an exfoliating effect and eliminates the reproduction of pathogenic microorganisms in the lesion. Sulfur softens dead skin flakes, contributes to the appearance of an acidic environment, which creates unfavorable conditions for the reproduction of bacteria and fungi. Pine rosin enhances the antimicrobial effect, rubber and lanolin accelerate tissue regeneration.

At the same time, salicylic acid increases the incidence and enhances adverse reactions after taking hypoglycemic drugs for oral use. A similar effect is observed when taking Methotrexate and sulfonylurea derivatives during treatment with adhesive tape.

Pharmaceutical incompatibility is observed with the simultaneous use of a dermatotropic agent with medicines based on zinc oxide, Resorcinol. Therefore, when prescribing these drugs, it is not recommended to treat skin diseases with Salipod.

The effectiveness of the treatment of plantar spinules and papillomas on the hands with a solid patch

The peculiarity of warts and spines is that after mechanical removal, these neoplasms grow again. This reaction is due to the fact that skin diseases are caused by the human papillomavirus.

To obtain maximum effectiveness, it is necessary to use antiviral drugs, cauterizing agents, go for laser cosmetic procedures or cryotherapy.

Instructions for use

To get rid of skin growths, it is necessary to cut a piece of the patch of the desired size, separate it from the protective coating and stick it over the lesion. For maximum effect, it is recommended to pre-take a hot shower or steam your legs.

At the same time, before applying Salipod, the skin should be dry, without traces of moisture. Water trapped under the patch reduces the effectiveness of salicylic acid and peels off Salipod from the skin. To get rid of a skin neoplasm, you will need to repeat the procedure up to 3-4 times, during which the growth gradually softens and separates from the new skin.

From shipigi

The instructions for use of the patch for the treatment of dry corns, papillomas and thorns are the same. At the same time, Salipod should be kept on the foot only for 24 hours. To attach the patch, you will need to cut a small section of the Salipod according to the size of the shipigi and stick it over the lesion. For a more reliable fixation of the dermatotropic agent on the leg, you can wrap the foot with adhesive tape.

After a day, it is necessary to remove the bandage along with Salipod and cut out the softened spike under the root using nail scissors. The tool will need to be disinfected before use.

To eliminate the old stratum corneum, you need to repeat the procedure 2 more times. During this time, dead skin flakes will begin to peel off, the wound will dry out and heal. To obtain a more effective result, it is recommended to carry out complex treatment – use Salipod in conjunction with cauterizing agents.

Adhesive plaster will not help to completely get rid of the skin growth. To completely eliminate shipigu, you will need to get to its root, located in the deep layers of the dermis. This type of plantar warts is caused by the papilloma virus, which Solcoderm , Galstena, laser coagulation, Duofilm helps get rid of.

From corns

To get rid of corns with the help of Salipod, you must adhere to the following algorithm:

1. Take a hot bath and steam the foot for 10 minutes, after which you need to wipe the foot dry.
2. From the patch you need to cut a small piece the size of a corns. Remove the protective film and stick on the lesion. Top with a regular band-aid tape.
3. Small corns can be treated overnight. To eliminate large growths, you will need to leave the patch on for 48 hours. When removing the patch, you do not need to pull it sharply so as not to accidentally tear off healthy skin.
4. If the corns remain firm to the touch, repeat the procedure.
5. When softening the build-up, it is not necessary to re-glue Salipod. The wound should be allowed to dry. The keratinized skin will peel off on its own in a week.

From calluses

Salipod should be applied to the corn so that it does not affect healthy areas of the skin. It is forbidden to fix the patch in the presence of cracks or foci with bacterial infections.

Before application, it is recommended to take a shower, wipe your feet dry. The adhesive plaster does not need to be removed within 2 days. After 48 hours, you can remove the softened keratinized skin with scissors. If necessary, stick the Salipod again.

From warts and papillomas

To eliminate papillomas and warts, you must adhere to the following algorithm:

1. Apply Salipod over the neoplasm strictly on the affected areas of the skin.
2. After 24 hours, the adhesive plaster must be removed, cut off the softened wart under the root, parallel to the healthy skin around the growth.
3. Repeat the procedure so that the old skin can completely separate from the new epithelial tissue. After a day, remove the patch and leave the wound to dry. If the application fails, you can apply the patch 3 times.

With warts and papillomas, it is necessary to take antiviral drugs in parallel with the treatment with Salipod. Otherwise, it is impossible to get the effect of the patch – papillomas will grow again due to the presence of the virus in the blood and dermis. The wart should be treated with caustic agents (Super Cleaner), liquid nitrogen, or a laser.

The nuances of treatment

To get the effect of using a dermatotropic agent and reduce the risk of adverse reactions, the following rules should be followed:

• before application, you should take a hot bath and place your feet in warm water, then dry your feet thoroughly with a towel;
• do not use Salipod on neoplasms of an unspecified type, burns and wounds;
• before application, you should switch to taking insulin, since salicylic acid enhances adverse reactions from the use of hypoglycemic agents;
• replace drugs based on sulfonylureas with other medicines;
• do not use the patch while taking Resorcinol and zinc oxide.

During pregnancy

Salicylic acid and precipitated sulfur can enter the bloodstream. When exposed to the skin, the active ingredients affect the capillary vessels, and therefore enter the circulating bloodstream.

Through the mother’s blood, they easily penetrate the placental barrier, which can provoke the development of intrauterine fetal anomalies. To avoid unpleasant consequences, it is not recommended to use Salipod during pregnancy.

Application to children

Salipod can be used to treat skin growths from the age of 10 years. For younger children, the use of a dermatotropic drug is not recommended. This is due to the delicate epithelium with many capillary vessels and nerve endings. The skin is still developing, so salicylic acid and sulfur can provoke the development of an allergic reaction, thinning of the skin, bleeding.

There are the following contraindications to the use of Salipod:

• individual intolerance to the structural substances of the drug;
• severe irritation or thinning of the skin;
• predisposition to the development of allergies, anaphylactic reactions;
