Basics About Warts

November 2, 2009 by admin 

Warts are generally caused by the Human Papilloma Virus (HPV). There are several different types of warts which have been identified. These vary in the site affected, shape and type of HPV. Once cells become infected with HPV, the result is rapid reproduction of HPV cells on the outer layer of the skin.

Types of warts include: (1) common warts which are raised above the skin and have a rough surface and as a result have a characteristic cauliflower-like appearance; (2) plantar warts which are usually encountered on the soles of the feet and grow inward often resulting in a painful hard lump and causing significant pain from just standing and especially walking; (3) flat warts with flesh or tan color which usually occur on the hands, neck, face, wrists or knees and often in multiple amounts; (4) digitate or filiform warts which are thread-like warts mostly occurring on the face; (5) mosaic warts which are groupings of tightly clustered plantar-type warts; (6) Genital Warts which are venereal warts on the genitals requiring special care.

Although for the most part they are not seriously harmful to your health, they can be very unsightly and uncomfortable. Anyone who has warts wants to get rid of them as quickly as possible, and this is when wart treatments come into play.

There are actually a number of different wart treatments available nowdays, such as apple cider vinegar. (1) All you have to do is that you soak the area of the warts in warm water for about twenty minutes, then apply full strength apple cider vinegar with a cotton ball leaving it for ten minutues, at last wash it off and let dry. (2) Another method that you can follow using the apple cider vinegar is that you keep a plastic container with a lid in your bathroom and make sure that there is enough apple cider vinegar in it to cover the area with the warts. After every shower or bath you take, you can just dip the area in vinegar and then dry it off. Just remember not to actually rinse the vinegar off. Using this method, you may notice results immediately. And for most people their warts are gone within a week.

Another wart treatments involves a banana mixture. All you do here is that you take a ripe banana peel and cut a piece of it off. Then you apply the pulp side of this to the affected area and tape securely. Leave this on for the entire day and night, except for when you bathe. And once you get out of the shower or bath, you want to change it. This method can take up to several months to actually work, but it has been incredibly effective for getting rid of stubborn plantar warts that other solutions could not.

Salicyclic acid is the most commonly used method as it is a much more aggressive form of treatment than the others. Products with the salicylic acid as an ingredient work by destroying wart tissue. To use these products, you just need to apply them directly to the wart and not on the surrounding skin because you don’t want it to get irritated.

Natural organic medicine is also considered an effective treatment for removing warts. Natural medicines can treat the condition initially. Aside from curing warts, these natural essential oils have other benefits in the overall health. Medicinal plants deliver profound results to cure a vast array of ailments; recent scientific studies demonstrate this very fact and show just how powerful they can be. The beauty of these naturally occurring extracts is that they not only deliver incredible results to eradicate specific ailments, but do so without undesired side effects.

You may have to try more than one method in order to actually get rid of your warts, but at least you know that you have options. If nothing seems to be working and your warts are persistent, then you may need to make an appointment with your doctor so that you can discuss with him/her about further options and methods of treatment.

Most doctors opt to burn (cauterize) or freeze off warts. Unfortunately success with this method is usually temporary and the warts often return. The patient is also subject to a highly invasive procedure, which can be painful and cause enough tissue damage to leave a scar.

It contains only certified organic anti viral extracts which have the demonstrated ability to not only kill the wart virus but also stimulate CD4 T-cells, those cells responsible for cleansing virus-infected cells. As a result, WartCure accomplishes what surgery attempts to achieve without any recurrence, discomfort or tissue damage. Application actually kills the virus.
