Warts are unesthetic formations that form on the surface of the skin from the dead epidermal layer. Their appearance is due to the effects of HPV, which is activated when immunity is decreased, in stressful situations and under the influence of other factors. To choose the most effective remedy for warts, it is necessary to study its type.
The neoplasms under consideration are divided into several types:
- obscene / ordinary;
- average / youthful;
- plantar;
- dementia;
- genital warts.
Warts that appear on the body after being infected with HPV can go away on their own, as viral diseases are often cured when the body’s defenses are restored. With the onset of the disease in its chronic form, accompanied by the formation of unsightly tubercles, various drugs are used to get rid of it.
In addition to medications for warts taken orally, patients should regularly treat their growths with special ointments, creams, and solutions.
From homeopathic remedies in the treatment of warts, tonic drugs based on Schisandra chinensis, leuzea, echinacea, ginseng, aralia, eleutherococcus are used.
