General information about the disease, what is it?
The body of each person contains a large number of viruses and bacteria. According to statistics, 80% of the population are carriers of papilloma disease. And only in the case of weakened immunity or stress, the virus will make itself felt with skin formations.
What is this disease?
Spike is a keratinized neoplasm on human skin, tactilely and visually resembling a dense nodule. It most often appears on the hands and feet, and there may also be a spike on the arm .
For a long time they may not bring problems to the wearer, except for aesthetic unattractiveness. Over time, pain symptoms begin to appear when pressed.
How does it arise?
Outwardly, the spine is very similar to ordinary abrasion. This is due to infection in cracks, scratches, wounds on the skin. For a long time, the virus penetrates into living tissue and begins to destroy cells, preventing them from developing and growing.
In the cell mass, a process of resistance occurs, and benign neoplasms appear with changes in hereditary information.
Further, the virus begins to grow more and more throughout the body, and there are more and more callused spines. There are cases when the immune system is able to overcome the infection and the spines disappear without medical intervention. But most often the growths become too much and you can’t do without a doctor.
In the first stages of the appearance of papilloma, pain is absent. Over time, unpleasant tingling begins when you press the spine. In a neglected form of development, pain is present all the time, without tactile touches.
What does the growth look like?
Warts are flat and vary in size. They can grow up to two centimeters. To the touch they are rough, flaky, bumpy.
Under the spine there is a crater with papillary processes that grow from muscle tissue, as a result of which pain occurs. From the processes in the future, more and more papillomas appear.
Usually the largest, maternal wart stands out. The growths around it are daughter formations. If you remove the main “corn”, then the small ones will disappear without outside interference.
On hands
Most often, spines appear on the folds of the fingers. Initially, it is impossible to distinguish from a corn, later it begins to grow and cause pain, especially during physical exertion.
Often, due to incomplete observance of hygienic conditions and the process of virus intervention, pus can accumulate under the rough skin in the middle of the growth.
On foot
May appear on the entire surface of the foot. They look the same as on the hands. The most common cause is:
- uncomfortable shoes made of poor quality materials;
- sweating of the legs;
- non-compliance with personal hygiene, for example, wearing someone else’s shoes, especially home shoes, not washing your feet daily;
- neglect of the treatment of skin cracks.
In pregnant women
The appearance of neoplasms is a common problem of pregnant women. Moreover, they will appear, they can be near the genitals and on the genitals themselves. The shape, size and structure are the same as on the arms and legs. Reasons for the appearance:
- Hormonal changes associated with expecting a baby.
- Changes in the skin due to weight gain (thorns appear on the legs).
- Diabetes mellitus, which leads to a complete change in the body.
Genital warts are the main danger, because they can infect a child during childbirth. And they can also cause future heavy bleeding in a woman in labor.
The worst consequences if a child becomes infected with a virus are neoplasms in the respiratory tract of a newborn, which leads to breathing problems and weak vocal cords.
In children
Just like in adults, children’s spines are diagnosed most often on the arms and legs. In childhood, this virus appears in those who were most likely infected at birth. The manifestation of HPV on the body of a child is, first of all, a signal to parents that immunity is weakened.
On the face
The manifestation of HPV on the face is a very rare occurrence. Causes of occurrence:
- poor hygiene or hormonal changes;
- in girls, this may be a disregard for removing makeup before bedtime;
- in adolescents from 14 to 18 years of age, such formations are possible during puberty;
- irregular hand washing can also lead to this trouble, since contact between the hands and face occurs quite often.
It is worth contacting a specialist for a complete analysis of the cause of the formation, and take directions for gentle removal.
Stages of disease development
- In the very first manifestation, the neoplasm does not bother a person in any way. The uneven surface of the skin, which does not yet cause pain symptoms, is perceived as abrasion or excessive dryness of the skin.
- Over time, pain appears, the spine itself increases in volume and swells. At this stage, they begin to become uncomfortable, and the wearer will often attempt to remove them without medical attention. In this case, only the head, the so-called callus, is removed, the core itself remains inside, and is still invisible. With spontaneous removal at this stage of development, a yellowish, thick liquid can flow out from under the spine. Gradually, the spines become more and more, they are still small in size and, perhaps, do not hurt yet.
- In the most advanced stage, warts acquire a purple color, measure 1.5-2 centimeters in diameter, swell significantly and bring constant pain, even without tactile intervention.
It is very important, already at the first stages of HPV development, to distinguish the spine from the usual abrasion. And since the symptoms and external manifestations are very similar, only a doctor can do this correctly. The table shows the most distinctive signs of spines and calluses.
In psychology, there is a widespread theory about the emotional and internal problems of a person, which are reflected on the skin in the form of various diseases and viruses. If we consider the problem, from this point of view, then the manifestation of self-blame, resentment against society and a severe psychological crisis. Psychotherapist Valery Sinelnikov, in his book Love Your Illness, says that the HPV virus is inherent in people with complexes of appearance and fear of being ridiculed. The doctor explains that healing will come after painstaking work on oneself, which will lead to harmony with oneself and one’s body. American scientists put forward the theory that warts on the human body are caused by a state of constant stress, and this leads to a decrease in immunity. Very often, warts take on such forms that they are already difficult to treat without surgical intervention. With improper and untimely treatment, neoplasms are gaining growth and covering large areas of the skin, and immunity is becoming weaker, more diseases appear. It is best to start treating spines immediately at the first manifestations of the virus, this insignificant growth can develop into a malignant tumor. At the moment, in medicine, spines are treated in five different ways, depending on the form and stage of development of the virus:
