Flat warts are caused by a papillomavirus infection and are highly contagious and prone to recurrence. If flat warts appear around the eyes, it is recommended to remove them as soon as possible, otherwise they may continue to increase in number and size, making treatment more difficult later on. If there are only a few warts at the beginning, you can go to a dermatology department in a formal hospital and have them removed directly with a laser. If there are many warts, the effect of laser treatment may not be very good, and it may be appropriate to use some antiviral medications and take some immune-boosting medications. If the results are still not satisfactory, it is advised to visit a dermatology department at a formal hospital for wart burial, which is part of an effective immunotherapy for warts. Regularly strengthen exercise, enhance immune response, avoid spicy and irritating food, and try not to stay up late.

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.

Difference between Sebaceous Nevus and Flat Warts

Sebaceous nevus is primarily associated with localized epidermal growth and development, and is a type of benign hyperplasia. Most people are affected from birth or at a very young age, generally limited to one area and do not spread massively or contagiously across the body. Flat warts are caused by human papillomavirus (HPV) infections, which are contagious and recurrent, and can appear all over the body, not just in one area. Flat warts are generally dot-like or circular, whereas sebaceous nevi are mostly linear in growth, becoming larger and more proliferative over time. The most common treatment for sebaceous nevus is surgical removal, while flat warts can be selectively removed using laser treatment.

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.
