Symptoms of genital warts
Genital warts are caused by the HPV virus, also known as the human papillomavirus, a sexually transmitted disease. As a classic STD, it is mainly transmitted through sexual contact, but it can also be transmitted through mother-to-child transmission, blood, and close personal contact. Clinically, genital warts primarily manifest as cauliflower-like growths on the external genitalia and are prevalent among sexually active populations. After diagnosing genital warts, treatments such as laser or cryotherapy can be used to remove the warts. Additionally, genital warts are prone to recurrence in the short term, requiring regular visits to the hospital outpatient clinic.
Can genital warts be cured?
Genital warts are a disease caused by human papillomavirus infection, mostly transmitted through sexual contact, and are highly contagious and recurrent. Although they can ultimately be completely cured, the treatment process is very tortuous and the course of treatment is relatively long. During treatment, try to avoid sexual contact, abstain from spicy and irritating foods, exercise more, and enhance immunity. The most common treatment approach is to use laser to directly remove the warts, then take oral and topical antiviral medications, and adhere to the treatment long-term. After recovery, it is also important to regulate one's diet and lifestyle habits, avoid public baths and swimming pools, and minimize sexual contact with others.
Can genital warts be effectively treated?
Genital warts, if treated formally and persistently over a long period, can be completely cured. This disease is caused by HPV virus infection, also known as the papillomavirus. The main route of transmission is still through sexual contact, but there is also a possibility of infection from staying in hotels, using public toilets, or bathing in public baths. Once infected, it is crucial to seek formal treatment, which involves removing the warts with laser surgery, and then combining antiviral medication orally with drugs that enhance immune function. Routine exercise to strengthen immunity, avoiding spicy and stimulating food, and refraining from alcohol can all aid in the treatment. During the treatment period, it is essential to avoid sexual contact to prevent cross-infection.
