Flat warts are caused by human papillomavirus infection, and they exhibit strong contagiousness and a tendency to recur. If they are located near the eyes and are relatively few in number, direct treatment with a laser can be employed. After the laser treatment, antiviral medication should be applied locally. Additionally, it is advisable to take some medications to enhance immune function, engage in regular exercise, and avoid spicy and irritating foods. If there are many warts and long-term treatment has been ineffective, immunotherapy for warts can be considered. This involves removing the warts and embedding the antigens and antibodies subcutaneously to stimulate the body's own antibody production against the virus. If this still does not yield satisfactory results, long-term treatment with oral and topical medications can be used, though this method requires persistence over an extended period.

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.

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.

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.

What should I do if my flat wart breaks?

Flat warts are a type of viral infection. If broken, the contagiousness increases. The key is to enhance skin cleanliness and provide symptomatic treatment such as immune regulation and antiviral therapy. Oral medications like thymopeptide enteric capsules can be taken. For damaged areas, topical application of compound Phellodendron liquid or Kangfuxin liquid can be used for astringent cleaning. After the surface liquid has dried, interferon gel or butenafine cream can be applied. The treatment of flat warts varies from person to person and can occur in different parts of the body, generally in exposed areas such as the face, hands, and back, and is more common in females, but can also affect children. Dietary supplements such as porridge made from coix seeds can be included.
