Causes of warts on the body

Any person can develop warts on the body, regardless of gender and age. The papilloma virus enters the body through the mucosa or skin, penetrating under the epithelium and remaining in the nervous tissues.

The appearance and development of infection are influenced by:

• Nervous irritation, severe fatigue, anger
• Depression, stressful state of the body
• Presence of cuts, scratches, scratches. The duration of exposure is limited by direct contact with a person infected with the virus, which allows it to penetrate freely into your nervous tissues. But the life of the virus outside the human body can take up to three hours. Therefore, the presence of even minor microtraumas will easily lead to HPV staying with you for a long time. This can happen through everyday interaction: common meals, places of mass visits (swimming pool, swimming pool, public transport), etc.
• The presence of a pleasant environment for virus activation. This is facilitated by a warm and humid atmosphere. Therefore, when choosing a place to spread the warts on the body often appear on the soles, and complicating the more painful gait.

4. Senile warts. These growths on the skin are non-viral in nature, so it is wrong to call them warts. They occur in people over the age of 40 and are characterized by a greasy surface. They are dark in color, do not cause pain
5. Plantar warts. Often localized in the foot area, they can cause severe pain. It mainly occurs on the toes or heels
6. Genital warts. These are warts that appear on the genitals of women and men and can cause serious discomfort. They differ in gray-white shade, they can be found on the genital mucosa.

If warts are detected, it is recommended to consult a specialist, a dermatovenerologist, who will rule out other possible infections and indicate the type of disease (flat, pointed, filamentous, etc. warts) and medications to fight HPV.

Methods of treatment

Methods of treating warts on the body are divided into methods of traditional and alternative (folk) medicine. The most popular method is to use celandine juice which is applied to the nipple. Dandelion juice is used in the same way.

Scientists' research: the nature of warts will be revealed soon

Scientists at the University at Buffalo have discovered new data on the formation of warts during the elimination of healthy cells triggered by autoimmune antibodies. The information obtained may become crucial in the development of autoimmune mechanisms and the reason for creating a mass screening of patients with autoimmune diseases, which in the United States alone make up about 10% of the total population.

Important: Warts on the body basically appear in the area of the hands, knees, feet, so it is easy to recognize the disease by visual inspection.

The process of wart formation is an autoimmune skin disorder in which autoimmune antibodies begin to destroy healthy cells, replacing them with pathogenic structures. This disease is treated by taking hormonal immunosuppressants.

During the study, scientists from the University at Buffalo used the method of atomic force microscopy to study in detail the joints of cell membranes, replaced with pathogenic structures, whose membranes collapsed inward after an autoimmune attack. According to scientists, these joints have not been studied or considered in the past, but they may contain knowledge that can explain the formation of warts.

Among other things, the scientists were able to find out that the process of creating warts is triggered due to the activity of only some autoimmune antibodies.
