Flat warts are caused by a papillomavirus infection and are highly contagious and prone to recurrence. If flat warts appear around the eyes, it is recommended to remove them as soon as possible, otherwise they may continue to increase in number and size, making treatment more difficult later on. If there are only a few warts at the beginning, you can go to a dermatology department in a formal hospital and have them removed directly with a laser. If there are many warts, the effect of laser treatment may not be very good, and it may be appropriate to use some antiviral medications and take some immune-boosting medications. If the results are still not satisfactory, it is advised to visit a dermatology department at a formal hospital for wart burial, which is part of an effective immunotherapy for warts. Regularly strengthen exercise, enhance immune response, avoid spicy and irritating food, and try not to stay up late.

Is flat wart serious?

Flat warts are caused by an infection with the human papillomavirus, commonly known as HPV. This disease currently has a particularly high incidence rate, with most people having one or more flat warts on their skin. Once they appear, they can be completely cured with proper treatment. This condition is not considered particularly severe, but it is highly contagious and recurrent. When bathing at home, it's important to use separate towels or washcloths from other family members to prevent cross-infection. It is also advisable to avoid spicy and irritating foods, avoid staying up late, exercise regularly, and strengthen the immune system for a faster recovery from the disease.

How to eradicate flat warts?

Flat warts are a common dermatological disease that often appear on the face, neck, and backs of the hands, caused by a viral infection of the skin. For the treatment of flat warts, it is suggested to use laser, cryotherapy, or oral interferon medications. If one aims to completely eliminate flat warts, using laser and cryotherapy is relatively effective. However, no matter the method, there is always a possibility of recurrence. Thus, it is crucial to enhance one's own immunity. Additionally, it is advised to eat more vegetables and fruits in the diet.

How to remove flat warts

Flat warts are caused by the human papillomavirus infection, commonly known as the HPV virus. This disease is highly contagious and recurrent; once it appears, it tends to grow on various parts of the body in most individuals. The most commonly used primary treatment method is laser removal of the warts, followed by the application of topical antiviral medications. This method is generally suitable for flat warts that are less numerous. Another method is wart vaccination therapy, which involves removing the flat warts and using them to create a vaccine that is implanted into the muscle of the patient, generating antibodies to fight against the flat warts. The last method involves the use of oral and topical medications, but this method is slower and requires long-term treatment. The treatment of flat warts also necessitates a long-term dietary avoidance of spicy and stimulating foods, increased physical exercise, and a stronger focus on immunotherapy.

Does flat wart affect pregnant women?

Flat warts are benign skin proliferations caused by a viral infection in women, most often due to the human papillomavirus, and typically occur on the face or upper limbs. When they occur, they generally have no impact on pregnant women, and the patient usually does not feel any discomfort. After bodily adjustment and an increase in immune resistance, they may also naturally regress. This virus does not enter the body through the placenta, so it does not affect the fetus, and there is no need for excessive worry.

Signs before the regression of flat warts

Signs before the regression of flat warts include slight itching in some people, or a numb sensation in others. During the healing process of flat warts, immune cells repair the local skin lesions and release inflammatory factors, causing mild itching. The rash of the flat warts will also turn red, gradually shrink, and then scab over. If the flat warts have been treated with liquid nitrogen freezing or laser, there might be some pain before they regress. However, before the regression of flat warts, many people do not show any special symptoms and most people's flat warts regress unknowingly. The occurrence of flat warts is due to a viral infection, and they can be removed under the guidance of a doctor using liquid nitrogen freezing treatment or laser methods.
