Subadoraine warts (also, the crowd) are generally located on the pillow, on the heels, at the tips of their fingers.
This type of warts represents 30% of cases.Meet at any age.A distinctive characteristic is pain during sensation and mechanical pressure.
The reasons for the appearance of a plantar wart
Warts appear when they are infected with certain types of human papillom virus (HPV).About 38 to 42% of people are its carriers on apparently healthy skin.
The human papilloma virus has in various sources of several tens to two hundred species.Depending on the type of HPV that a person has been infected, he can have different types of neoplasms on the skin:
- Social warts,
- Papillomas,
- ordinary warts,
- flat,
- Anogenital condyloma - pointed.
The appearance of a plantar wart is preceded by an HPV 1, 2, 4 infection of the type.Transmission takes place in contact and on a daily basis.In cells in the basal layer of the skin, the virus can be in a sleep state for a long time.As soon as the favorable factors appear, the virus breeding process in the epithelium begins.This leads to the formation of morphologically modified skin tissues.
The infection by plantar warts is associated with barefoot walking, swimming in the pool, the use of a common bath.The infection is facilitated by the presence of microtraumas on the feet, the inflammatory processes on the skin, the increased perspiration of the legs.
Distinctive characteristics of the plantar wart
In appearance, the plantar warts resemble horns.
At the beginning, a relatively dense little knot occurs on the foot, which then expands, but is at the same level with healthy skin.The neoplasm is compacted, becomes a yellowish color, acquires a granular surface, is covered with a layer of thick horn.
Sometimes, the plantar wart has the shape of a hole in the bottom of which there are dense beams of threaded taste buds, and the edges look like a roller in a horn.
This type of wart is painful.Acute pain occurs when walking barefoot, when the affected area of a small solid object advances, when the heel is located in pressure in pressure places, foot pillows.It makes walking difficult.
When removing the corneum stratum in the central part of the plantar wart, the filaments and soft taste buds are visible.These are the capillaries in which the blood clots have formed.With light damage, they start to bleed.
The plantar wart is characterized by the appearance in the foot support areas, which are subject to the greatest pressure.Most often, they are single.But sometimes they form mergers in the form of a plate that has a mosaic motif.Deep cracks often occur on the feet.
How to get rid of a plantar wart
Specific drugs and antiviral vaccines that destroy HPV does not yet exist.It is impossible to completely eliminate the virus from the body.There are many methods to eliminate warts, but none of them is absolutely effective.Relapses of the disease are possible after one of them.
A high risk of recurrence of growth is noted:
- in the treatment of common neoplasms - with an area of more than 2 cm2;
- With plantar warts, while they penetrate deeper into the dermis.
The basic principle of treatment aims to destroy (destruction) by one or the other method of papillomas foci on the site of the introduction of the virus.In wart therapy is used:
- methods of chemical destruction;
- Di-Terminoagulation;
- Cryodestructure with liquid nitrogen;
- Laser therapy (carbon dioxide) is used for the ineffectiveness of other methods.
The doctor must decide how to withdraw: certain treatment methods can cause more harm than the warts themselves.For example, the profound destruction of the plantar warts (mainly laser and electrosurgical) can cause the formation of scars on the foot.And it is constantly subject to loads during walking.
Before treating a cartridge wart and destructive means, it is necessary to carry out preparatory procedures that soften the surface of growth and contribute to the penetration of the drugs used.It is necessary to keep the foot in a soap water solution or to make a salicylic acid application.After softening, excess horn mass (surface layer) must be removed and then applied the therapeutic solution.
To reduce pressure and pain when walking during treatment, a rubber ring can be attached to one foot in the growth area with adhesive plaster.
Options for the treatment of a wart method by chemical destruction
To eliminate plantar warts, concentrated acid solutions, alkalis, salts are used:
- hydrogen peroxide;
- Preparations based on salicylic and lactic acid;
- acetic and nitrogen acid;
- 50% trichloroxic acid solution;
- Thuja juice, Célandine.
Salicylic acid has a pronounced therapeutic effect against the centers of papillomas.Its use is associated with the keratolytic principle of exposure to defect: softening, dissolution and rejection of the stratum layer of the epidermis.
Salicylic acid is part of many means to treat warts.Its concentration can be 10 to 60%.
The effectiveness of the treatment of unique plantar warts with salicylic acid after three months treatment is 84%, with mosaic - in 45% of cases.
The therapeutic effect of concentrated trichloroxic acid is associated with the chemical destruction of the tissues.The destruction effect is obtained at the time when the wart and the fabric that surround it are laundered with lime.
The effectiveness of the destruction of the plantar wart is verified as follows: growth is compressed on both sides.If the pain is felt, then it is not yet destroyed, if there is no pain, then the elimination is successfully carried out.
The preparations for this action are used with caution under medical control.The most active among them are released only to medical workers.
To eliminate papillomas households in cosmetic rooms, drugs are used, including Lytta.It is the poison of unison.
The body of insects contains up to 5% of this substance.It is better known as aphrodisiac - causes sexual excitement.But the poison also has a range of skin.If he enters the skin, he quickly penetrates inside, removes the work of epidermal cells.They die, forming a bubble.Therefore, in dermatological practice, a solution of this substance is used to cauterize and eliminate skin defects.
In treatment, plantar warts disappear in 80% of cases.
The advantage of most cauterizing agents against plantar warts is the relative absence when applying the skin.But their use has side effects, you have to be treated for a long time.
Other drugs are also used to treat the plantar wart, causing the death of the tissues and destroying pathological training on the foot.
These drugs are applied to neoplasm 1 to 7 to 14 days.
You can get rid of plantar warts at home.The surface of the hearth is previously degraded with alcohol.The treatment is carried out until the neoplasm acquires a uniform yellow color.
A scabies are formed on the site of the wart.A few days later, his full rejection must occur.If this does not happen, it is necessary to perform a repeated treatment with the medication.For the treatment of plantar warts, 3 to 4 sessions are necessary.
At home, carefully withdraw the warts with cauterizing drugs so as not to damage the surrounding healthy tissues.To avoid complications, it is recommended to carry out the procedure, after consulting the doctor.
Blueberry
With recurrent warts, the blueberry is carried out.Immediately before the start of treatment, a wheat solution is prepared and applied to the foot on the lesion.Then, the wart is pierced with an injection needle until the bleeding appears and the medication is administered.The procedure is repeated several times until the neoplasm is completely soaked with a solution.
After treatment, the surface of the foot is covered with a plastic film and bandaged with a bandage for 24 to 48 hours.In two days, the wart dies, after a few days, it disappears.
There are no exact data on efficiency, side effects and contraindications for this method of processing a plantar wart.
Physical treatment methods.Diamocoagulation
Diarthermocoagulation is an elimination method in which the combustion of pathological tissues occurs under the influence of high frequency alternative electric current.The plantar wart is removed by a layer by a layer with an electrode which is in contact with the surface of growth.With several elements, the withdrawal is made in steps.
The elimination of plantar warts by diatocoagulation is a painful procedure, so it is carried out under local anesthesia.After treatment, dry bandage is applied.
Depending on the depth of the defect, the wound heals 4 to 6 weeks.In place of withdrawal, a scar is formed.
Physical treatment methods.Cryodestruction
Cryotherapy is a method of exposure to the skin of low -temperature agents.The destruction of the neoplasm occurs due to the formation of ice crystals inside cells and blood vessels.Under the influence of low temperatures, the blood flow in the vessels ceases and the defect is destroyed.But at the same time, the structural base, collagen fibers and the ability of nerve fibers to restore are preserved.This guarantees normal healing of wounds after cryodestruction.
Effectively treat plantar warts by the soft cryodestruction method during liquid nitrogen treatment.Liquid nitrogen is applied to households with a cotton cotton swab according to the type of hard cryomassage for 20 to 30 s per session.Repeated procedures are carried out after 2 to 4 days.
In the event of excessive thickening of the corneal stratum before each procedure, 12 to 24 hours on the hearth are applied to the Saliza adhesive plaster.Immediately before cryotherapy, they make a soap -shaped knife bath.
Surgical excision of the wart
Surgical treatment of plantar warts is not carried out because this method is traumatic and does not prevent relapse.After surgical excision, there is a high risk of formation of raw scars.
In extremely rare cases, in the event of suspicion that the wart acquires the properties of a malignant tumor, it must be deleted.They excite the growing skin, capturing the adjacent tissues.Consequently, the operation is often accompanied by serious bleeding.
To avoid the appearance of scars on the foot, the plantar warts are withdrawn with a cushion.This medical tool is used in surgery to eliminate (curettage) of the pathological tissues of the bones.An anesthetic injection is introduced to the basis of growth.This facilitates the separation of the wart of the lower layers of the skin.The doctor removes the skin pathologically modified with scraping movements.
Once the procedure is completed instead of eliminating the element, a neat round bleeding wound remains.It is cauterized to stop bleeding and destroy the remaining elements of the wart.The distant tissues are sent for a histological examination.
Complete fabric healing occurs after 2 to 3 weeks.
Treatment of plantar warts with folk methods
Alkaline baths.The sodium bicarbonate in a quantity of 500 g is poured into a thin linen bag.The bag is hung on the tap tap, then the hot water crane is open.The stream must cross the bag and dissolve soda.After that, cold water is added to the bathtub and the water temperature is increased to 36 to 38 ° C. The alkaline baths have spent 10 to 15 minutes spend daily or every two days.The course of treatment is 10 to 12 baths.
Hot baths.Take baths for feet at a water temperature of 45 ° C or with the addition of oxiding peat (50 ml per 10 liters of water) for 20 to 30 minutes two to three times a week.To carry out the effect, it is necessary to carry out 20 procedures of this type or more.
If warts are not processed, the following options for the development of events are possible:
- They can suddenly disappear alone;
- Skin rashes will remain unchanged;
- The increase in the growth of skin neoplasms will occur.
With recurrent warts, treatment should combine the elimination of growth with the stimulation of antiviral immunity.In the human papilloma virus, interferons are used.You can lubricate the defect for 2 to 4 weeks or more antiviral ointments.
