What the body signals when papillomas grow in the body

Papillomas appear - it is a sign that processes taking place in the body require urgent attention and referral to a specialist. Papillomas are benign tumors that a third person on the planet is familiar with. In most cases, these elements only cause cosmetic discomfort, but they can sometimes cause the development of dangerous diseases.

The mechanism of appearance of papillomas

Papillomas, condylomas and warts are formations that appear in the human body as a result of papilloma virus infection. An infectious pathogen is transmitted from a carrier to a healthy person in three ways:

1. From mother to child at birth. This happens in cases of presence of genital warts in pregnant women. As a result, papillomas appear in the baby's oral cavity, pharynx, larynx, nose, and respiratory tract.
2. Through domestic contacts. To become infected with the papilloma virus, it is enough to have close contact with the things of a person who is educated about the body.
3. During sexual intercourse. The most common type of infection. As a rule, the consequence of sex with the carrier is warts in intimate places: the anal and genital region. If detected, a gynecologist should be immediately contacted to prevent undesirable consequences: due to careless handling, trauma is possible, leading to the likelihood of degeneration into a neoplasm, the development of a cancerous tumor.

A small, invisible lesion on the skin or mucous membrane is enough to penetrate a person's bloodstream.

For this reason, even protected sex cannot prevent disease.

Causes of papillomas

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

To activate HPV, the body's natural defenses must be weakened. The appearance of papillomas in the body is preceded by the impact of external and internal factors.

External factors

The causes of papilloma in the body can be varied. Everything a person is exposed to can be attributed to outside provocateurs:

1. Use of cosmetics, hygienic devices, personal items. This includes using underwear, toothbrushes, towels, shaving with an ordinary blade, using manicure scissors, decorative cosmetics.
2. Visiting public spas: swimming pools, baths, saunas, beaches. Walking barefoot increases the risk of skin damage.
3. Beauty salon and medical procedures. The lack of sanitary standards in institutions where reusable devices are used contributes to the transmission of viral infection. You can get infected in the beautician's office while performing the piercing. The eyelash extension procedure, popular in recent years, will cause eyelid growths.
4. Excessive sweating and wearing tight clothing. Sweating causes the appearance of microcracks in the skin. The virus penetrates into such damage, forming papillomas in problem areas. People notice an increase in warts in the armpits (filamentous papillomas), under the breasts (hanging growths), in the lower abdomen and in the groin area.
5. Direct contact with entities. Touch can spread the virus throughout the body, increasing the number of warts.
6. A woman transmits the human papillomavirus to a baby during its passage through the birth canal. If tumors are present in the mother's genital area, cervix or vagina, it is very likely that the baby was already born infected. This can happen if the papillomas are on the mother's chest.
7. Sexual contact. A common way of transmitting HPV from one partner to another. The more sexual partners a person has, the greater the chance of getting a viral infection.

It is not difficult to get the papillomavirus. A person cannot protect himself from all provocation factors. To activate the virus, internal changes in the body must be triggered.

Internal factors

Internal reasons include processes that cause immune decline, activation of infection.

1. Acute bodily processes and pill-taking. During treatment, the body's ability to independently resist pathogens is suppressed.
2. Stress. Any shock or psychological experience leads to a weakening of the protective functions. As a result of a strong experience or emotional outburst, signs of various illnesses appear, for example, the appearance of warts.
3. Hypothermia or overheating. The body's forces are expended in establishing normal indicators of body temperature. It becomes susceptible to any external factors.
4. Pregnancy in women. After conception, the female body needs to weaken the immune system to prevent fetal rejection. Against the background of such a condition, a favorable environment is often formed for various infectious diseases whose signs have not previously been observed. Sometimes, after childbirth, the body recovers, suppresses pathogenic processes, growths disappear on their own. It is not recommended to remove growths at this stage, most removal methods are invasive.
5. Hormonal changes. They are possible during puberty, pregnancy, breastfeeding, menopause or as a result of an illness.
6. Poor nutrition. Lack of vitamins leads to malfunction of some or all of the vital systems. Immunity drops. People suffer from the onset of illnesses in the autumn-winter period, when there is an acute shortage of useful products.
7. The presence of bad habits. Alcohol and tobacco reduce the ability to fight pathogens. People with addiction, according to doctors, are more likely to suffer from papillomavirus.

Characteristics of manifestation in men and women

Viral spots do not differ significantly. Whether they start to ascend on the head, neck, back, face, abdomen or limbs, it makes no difference who owns the papillomas - a woman or a man. There are certain differences in virus transmission and damage to the genital area. The genitals have a sensitive covering and are easily injured during intercourse. According to expert observations, the anal passage 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, tumors can appear in the pope, lips, clitoris, or vaginal cavity.

Without treatment, warts can fuse and lead to the development of papillomatosis. The danger for women is defeating cervical warts. If the infection was caused by a type of virus with a high degree of oncogenicity, there is a possibility of developing cancer.

In men, growths affect the pubic region, the glans penis and the upper layers of the epidermis. The growths can grow in the urethra, which causes signs of development of inflammatory processes, problems with the flow of urine.

Papilloma prevention

It is almost impossible to prevent growths from appearing on the body. Following a few rules will reduce risk:

• compliance with the rules for the individual use of things;
• skin protection in public places;
• proper nutrition;
• rejection of bad habits;
• have a permanent sexual partner.

It is recommended that girls who have reached puberty be vaccinated against dangerous HPV strains with a high degree of oncogenicity. The vaccine is believed to prevent the development of cervical cancer. Home treatment cannot guarantee recovery. Traditional methods of therapy (herbal treatment) alleviate the external symptoms but leave the cause of the illness behind. If tumors appear in the body of unknown origin, you should see a doctor at a medical center. The doctor will prescribe a topical remedy for the virus.

To avoid health problems, you must be mindful of your body. If a person receives a signal from the body when viral papillomas appear on the body, it should not be ignored. You should immediately seek expert help. An experienced physician, based on a diagnostic test, will select an up-to-date treatment method.
