summary

I feel that my health condition is not good during this period of time. Sometimes my lower body is very uncomfortable, itching and smelling. I went to see a doctor and said that I am condyloma acuminatum, which belongs to HPV infection and needs treatment. So what is HPV? Let me tell you.

What is HPV virus?

First of all, human papillomavirus (HPV) is a kind of epitheliophilic virus with high specificity. For a long time, it has been known that HPV can cause benign tumors and warts, such as human verruca vulgaris, condyloma acuminatum and papilloma growing on the mucous membrane near the reproductive organs. HPV is easy to spread, but HPV is not equal to cancer. In particular, HPV antibody in blood only indicates that HPV has been infected. When HPV is found in secretion or exfoliation of cervix, most people will recover within one or two years.

Second, HPV is divided into low-risk type and high-risk type. High risk type is closely related to cervical cancer. Even if infected with high-risk HPV virus will not necessarily develop into cervical cancer. If only infected with HPV, without any symptoms and signs, it will be eliminated by the body's immune system. So don't worry. Even if the high-risk type of HPV continues to infect, the development of cervical cancer is a long process, about 5-10 years, such a long time we can treat well.

Third, HPV (human papillomavirus abbreviation) is a kind of papillomavacuolar virus A belonging to the family lactuloviridae. It is a spherical DNA virus. The infection area: human epidermis and mucous membrane squamous epithelium. Up to now, more than 130 kinds of HPV have been isolated. The virus only invades human beings and has no pathogenicity to other animals. After regular systematic treatment, the virus will be cleared by human body.

matters needing attention

After HPV infection, patients should eat more protein containing food, spicy food can not eat, eat more fresh fruits and vegetables. During the treatment, it is best not to have sex. If you are infected again, the wart will not only increase, but also increase the difficulty of treatment, and may be transmitted to others.
