RECIPES FOR POPULAR REMEDIES AGAINST WARTS

treatment of warts with folk remedies

For warts to appear, two conditions must be met: that a person has a papillomavirus infection in the blood (called HPV - human papillomavirus) and that his immunity is extremely weakened.

A decline in the body's immune forces can occur for many reasons, just as infection with a virus can occur in different ways, but the result is the same: the appearance of warts, which must be fought.Sometimes using folk remedies.

Traditional medicine has a long history, but it often loses speed and effectiveness in the face of modern methods.

The question of the effectiveness of traditional medicine

Treatment of warts with folk remedies was carried out by our ancestors long before official medicine recognized these skin growths as a medical problem, and even before the terms cryodestruction and laser exposure appeared.Warts were treated with various lotions, infusions, baths and compresses, and these recipes are still used in the modern world.

Is this treatment effective?

Not always, and there are several explanations for this:

  • Each person's body is individual: the degree of development of the virus and its variety (strain) may be different, so one person may not be suitable for the same treatment for warts that helped another;
  • a modern person may have an allergic reaction to any traditional medicinal component added to the medicine for papillomas, which can aggravate growth problems;
  • It makes no sense to remove advanced formations that have begun to degenerate into malignant cells using traditional methods, since this will not stop the pathological process of the development of skin cancer - melanoma.

It's important!Everyone can choose to trust alternative medicine.However, it is better to consult on this matter with a specialist who will offer you the right decision and warn against actions that have serious consequences for health.
