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.

How to deal with flat warts on the eyes?

Flat warts are caused by infection with the Human Papillomavirus, also commonly known as HPV. This disease is highly contagious and recurrent, and it is somewhat related to reduced immunity. If they appear near the eyes, it is advisable to go to the dermatology department of a regular hospital and use laser treatment, followed by the external application of antiviral ointment. Regular exercise should be enhanced to boost immunity. If there are many warts around the eyes, and they have been there for a long time with poor treatment outcomes, one can consider using wart immunization implantation. After removing the wart tissue, it is made into an antigen vaccine and implanted subcutaneously, allowing the body to produce antibodies to fight the virus. This method causes minimal trauma and is quite effective.

Can flat warts be treated with laser?

Flat warts are a disease caused by human papillomavirus (HPV) infection, and they are highly contagious and recurrent. Generally, they can be treated with laser therapy, but this method is mainly for patients with fewer growths. If there are many growths, the effectiveness of laser treatment may not be very good, and extensive laser use can easily cause scarring or leave laser marks. For multiple flat warts, the most common approach is still to use immunotherapy, or to take antiviral medications orally and topically over the long term. During the treatment of flat warts, it is important to avoid sharing towels or bath mitts to prevent cross-infection, although laser treatment can still be quite effective for smaller flat warts.

Can flat warts be removed by cautery?

Flat warts are caused by papillomavirus infection. This disease is highly contagious and recurrent, making treatment complex. Generally, if there are only a few at the onset, laser removal can be used, followed by topical application of interferon to prevent recurrence. If there are many flat warts, laser treatment may not be very effective. Oral and topical medications are alternative options, such as antiviral drugs and immune-boosting medications, supplemented with topical application of interferon or localized interferon injections. If these methods are not effective enough, you may consider undergoing wart immunotherapy at a hospital, which generally yields better results overall. Laser treatment is suitable for flat warts, but only when they are few in number.

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.

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.
