Virus Of The Human Papiloma: VPH Causes Warts
The virus of papiloma human (VPH) is the one that causes the wart. The
wart is a small cutaneous excrescence, lasts and rough, that is located
mainly in the skin of the hands or the face. The warts are caused by a
viral infection of the cells that reside in the superficial layer of the
skin. The warts are of the same color of the skin and are generally
rough to the tact but also they can be dark, flat and smooth. The aspect
of a wart varies according to its location.
The warts are infected when your skin touches the
virus, but the risk of I infect is low. This can happen
when headdresses a wart or when contacting in indirect form the virus
for example: in showers, sinks, sharing leaves to shave, etc.
Nevertheless, some types of the virus (it has around 60) are the
genital wart cause in the man and the woman and contribute of decisive
way to the development of cancer of the neck or cervix of the uterus or
matrix. For that reason the virus of papiloma human counts itself
between the causes of diseases of sexual transmission since that is the
contamination route.
There are different types from warts: the common warts
of the hands, the plantar warts (of the feet) and the flat warts. The
common warts grow generally in the fingers, around the nails and in the
back of the hand. They are more frequent where the skin has been injured
as well as in people who bite the nails or the “stepfathers " are taken.
When they are close by observed the blood vessels that the wart
contains, these give the appearance of black small points. In addition
they are the genital warts that are in the genital organs, the pubic
area and the area between the thighs, but can appear within the vagina
and the anal channel.
The dermatologists are enabled to use a great variety of treatments,
according to the age of the patient and the type of wart:
• Queratolíticas Substances.
The common warts that they leave generally in the hands can be treaties
in the small children by their parents applying dressing’s salicylic
acid (in form of gel, plaster or solution). The incommoded is minimum
but to obtain good results it is important to make the treatment during
several months. If the wart begins to hurt, it is recommended to
interrupt the treatment by a time.
• Crioterapia.
For the greater adults and children he is generally preferable to treat
the wart by means of the crioterapia (freezing). This treatment is not
very painful and very not very often it leaves scars. Nevertheless,
often one to three weeks is necessary to repeat the treatment each. The
success of this technique very is elevated after several applications.
The accomplishment of the crioterapia with curetaje of warts reduces the
necessity to apply liquid nitrogen frequently and improves the results.
• Electrocoagulation.
Also electro can be used surgery with the application of local
anesthesia, with which once extracted the wart an electrocoagulation of
the base of the same one is made. It requires two weeks generally to
cure the wound. Using this technique a small percentage of warts they
even recidivan after months.
• Laser.
The laser treatment also can be used for the warts that are difficult
to cure with the other therapies. There are different types from laser
that are used to treat warts.
• Surgery.
It is very rare that the surgical extirpation of the wart is
recommended since is frequent that leaves a permanent scar without
producing better results than the previous techniques.
• Bleomicina.
There is another treatment that it requires to inject to each one of
warts with a called drug bleomicina. The injections can be painful and
to produce an adverse reaction.
• Immunotherapy.
The immunotherapy also is another method of treatment. This method by
ricochet uses the system of the body. At the moment there are several
methods of immunotherapy in use but commonest it is the method in which
one becomes to the allergic patient a chemical agent, which it is
painted on the wart and it produces an allergic reaction around treated
warts. Generally, the warts disappear with this treatment.
Several treatments by oral route with this aim exist in addition.
• Interferon.
The warts also can be injected with interferon, a treatment that
stimulates the immune reaction and rejects the wart.
New Therapeutic: they are the modulators antivirales
and inmuno, basically: interferon alpha, imiquimod, to cidofovir,
vaccines. I think that they are the future, specially the topical
medication like imiquimod in cream to 5% and cidofovir to 3% (not yet
commercialized). The vaccines are complicated by the lack of knowledge
of the viral antigens.
