Celandine for effective treatment of viral warts: how to remove them correctly, the consequences

Celandine is a medicinal plant with dark green leaves, a straight bushy stem and small yellow flowers.

The plant is actively used both in folk and modern medicine, since it helps to eliminate neoplasms of viral etiology from almost any part of the body, strengthen local immunity and improve the condition of the skin without medical therapy and surgical intervention.

Composition and properties

The effectiveness of celandine treatment is due to the content of active ingredients that have a detrimental effect on dense and soft growths. The chemical composition of the plant contains more than 20 alkaloids – highly active organic nitrogen-containing compounds that interact with acids.

Alkaloids contribute to the death of infected cells, have a bactericidal and analgesic effect, due to which it will be possible to remove various seals from the skin quite quickly and with minimal discomfort.

In addition to alkaloids, the composition of the plant includes components such as:

• flavonoids – substances that have a pronounced antispasmodic effect and enhance the protective functions of the body;
• amines – compounds that take part in the regulation of vital processes in the body;
• Saponins are natural substances that form a stable foam when combined with water. The component has a calming effect;
• phytoncides are volatile biologically active substances. Suppress the growth and development of pathogenic microorganisms, relieve irritation;
• organic acids – the composition includes malic, citric and succinic acids involved in metabolism;
• essential oils – have anti-inflammatory, antispasmodic and antimicrobial effects;
• vitamins A and C – help strengthen the immune system and regenerate damaged tissues.

Is it possible to remove growths with a plant?

Fresh celandine juice and medicines based on it are able to cope with viral warty neoplasms and old papillomas, since penetrating deep into the skin, the agent gradually burns out the growth. Over time, a small wound remains at the site of the seal – it heals quickly and does not require special care.

Dermatologists note that the treatment of growths with celandine at home is possible only after consulting a specialist and carrying out diagnostic measures, with which it is easy to determine the nature of the growth. After making sure that it is of good quality, you can safely proceed to treatment.

Advantages and disadvantages of using the product: plant efficiency

The advantages of using celandine for removing neoplasms include:

• natural composition;
• convenience and ease of use;
• destruction of papillomavirus at the site of application;
• preventing the recurrence of new growths;
• no need to spend large sums on the purchase of medicines;
• low probability of scars, scars or age spots after wound healing;
• strengthening local immunity.

Despite the high efficiency of celandine against warts, the remedy has a number of significant drawbacks:

• sensation of itching and burning during the treatment of virus-affected areas of the skin;
• the impossibility of applying the agent to papillomas that appeared in the intimate zone ;
• long-term treatment compared with the use of pharmaceutical preparations or radical methods for removing warts;
• a large list of contraindications;

What is the danger of self-treatment?

The danger of self-treatment with celandine at home is the ability to cause irreparable harm to the health of the body and significantly worsen the condition of the skin.

It should also be remembered that in the case when the wart bleeds, grows, changes its structure or color, it is impossible to apply the product – this can aggravate the problem and lead to undesirable consequences.

cooking recipes

The celandine from papillomas and warts is used in various dosage forms, which allows you to choose the most suitable option for yourself, convenient for application.

Extract

0.5 kg of celandine leaves, rinse well, dry. Grind the raw materials with a blender or meat grinder and squeeze the juice out of the slurry. Pour the liquid into an opaque dark glass bottle, put it in a warm place for 3-4 days, and then apply pointwise to the warts.

Decoction

Pour one tablespoon of dried celandine leaves with a glass of water. Put the container on a slow fire and boil the mixture for 3-5 minutes. Cool the broth, strain through gauze folded several times and soak a cotton pad with liquid. Wipe neoplasms at least twice a day or apply as a compress.

Oil

Finely chop the fresh stems of the plant, put in a deep bowl and pour in sunflower oil (it should completely cover the leaves). Place the container in a dark, cool place for 7 days, then strain the resulting mixture and add fresh oil in a ratio of 1: 1. Mix well and use to treat growths.

Tinctures

Fill a 0.5 liter jar halfway with washed celandine grass. Pour 300 ml of boiling water, close the jar and leave for 2 days. Strain and apply to papillomas.

To prepare an alcohol tincture, pour raw materials crushed in a meat grinder with alcohol, leave in the refrigerator for 1-2 days, then strain and process the seals.

Juice with glycerin

Mix celandine juice with glycerin in equal proportions and apply to virus-affected areas of the skin at night. The finished ointment should be stored in the refrigerator for no more than 6 months.

How to remove growths with freshly squeezed juice?

Sort the celandine, removing branches and dried leaves. Rinse the plant, dry with a paper towel, cut and scroll through a meat grinder. Squeeze the gruel through gauze and pour the resulting juice into a bottle. The medicine can be used immediately after preparation.

Before the procedure, you must:

1. Wash the affected areas of the skin well.
2. Steam old growths and large warts.
3. Treat the skin with an antiseptic solution.
4. Lubricate healthy skin around the growth with a greasy cream or seal it with adhesive tape.

Technology of burning out growths, how to cauterize them correctly?

Burning out warty growths with celandine is carried out in stages:

1. The medicinal composition is collected in a pipette.
2. A drop of medication is applied to the center of the viral seal.
3. After drying, another drop of the product is applied to the wart.

The nuances of using ready-made products from a pharmacy: instructions for use

Natural celandine juice can be replaced with pharmaceutical preparations that eliminate papillomavirus and its symptomatic manifestations. Having chosen ready-made medications for treatment, you should study the instructions for their use and pay attention to important nuances.

1. Before starting drug therapy, consult your doctor and tell him about all the medications you are taking.
2. Apply the drug pointwise, without treating healthy areas of the skin.
3. Treat warts with a liquid composition for at least three weeks, then take a week break and, if necessary, continue treatment.
4. Do not increase the dosage of the drug prescribed by the doctor and do not interrupt treatment in the absence of a good reason (the appearance of an allergic reaction, pregnancy or the development of pathological processes in the body).
5. Refuse to use the drug with an expired expiration date and visual signs of unsuitability.

Painful sensations when burning

Applying celandine to warts cannot be called a pleasant procedure, since the juice of the plant acts aggressively on neoplasms, causing burning of the treated skin area. If after 30-40 minutes the discomfort does not disappear and intensifies, you should stop using the product and wash off the medicine with warm water.

Precautions when working with the drug

Safe removal of warty growths with celandine implies taking precautions that will help avoid burns and eliminate seals with minimal pain. When working with the drug, you should follow a few rules:

1. To process papilloma in medical gloves.
2. Do not apply medicinal juice to mucous membranes.
3. In case of contact with healthy skin or mucous membranes, rinse thoroughly with plenty of warm water.
4. Treat for 21 days – usually this is enough to remove dense growths.
5. Do not treat more than five warts in one course of treatment.
6. Do not tear off the crust formed at the site of the growth and wait for it to fall off on its own.

Contraindications

Experts categorically do not recommend using celandine for the treatment of viral warts in the presence of the following pathologies:

• epilepsy;
• diseases of the cardiovascular system;
• liver disease;
• bronchial asthma.

Side effects and consequences

With improper use of celandine or non-compliance with the rules for its safe application, the drug can cause allergies in the form of red spots on the skin, rashes and severe itching. In addition, an increase in the allowable dosage of plant juice or a drug based on it often leads to burns.

What to replace, analogues?

The medicinal plant can be replaced by other means, similar in principle of action and chemical composition. For patients who prefer natural remedies, alternative medicine suggests using potato, dandelion, or sour apple juice.

If there are contraindications to the use of celandine or other plants, papillomavirus carriers are prescribed drug therapy. Among the most effective drugs, experts distinguish Solcoderm, Kollomak and Verrukacid.

Reviews

Evgeny, 36 years old, Tyumen. I got warts at the age of 16, when I started going to the pool. Apparently, he picked up HPV there. For 20 years, I have not tried anything: antiviral  drugs, immunostimulating agents, several dozen folk recipes, and even surgical removal.

It turned out that everything is much simpler, you just had to use celandine! It burns strongly, but wounds heal quickly and scars do not remain. The best way to remove warts at home  for me simply does not exist.

Polina, 22 years old, Nizhnevartovsk. I heard a lot of rave reviews about celandine juice, but I don’t consider it an effective remedy for papilloma removal, because it didn’t help me in any way.

I treated the growths 2 times a day for a week, but the warts remained as they were. They did not become smaller, did not darken, did not begin to fall off, although the skin tingled a little. I see no reason to continue treatment, anyway, the plant does not work.

Alexandra, 29 years old, Moscow. I noticed the first warts on my body as a teenager, and then, on the advice of my grandmother, I used celandine juice. My skin is very sensitive, so the treated areas hurt for a long time, but the result was surprising.

After 5 days of use, the color of the warts changed, the skin began to peel off and, as a result, the papillomas disappeared. Since then, I am sure that ordinary celandine is much more effective and affordable than drugs from a pharmacy, which can not always cope with neoplasms on the skin.

It is possible to restore smoothness and healthy appearance to the skin at no extra cost, because celandine is a highly effective remedy that does not require large financial investments. However, the plant is not suitable for every papillomavirus carrier, so it is advisable to get a doctor’s approval before starting treatment.
