Papillomas are a sign of HPV (human papillomavirus) infection. They are small benign growths on the skin.

The action of ointments from papillomas
Most of the well-known and popular ointments for papillomas have a local effect and the active substances in their composition do not penetrate into the systemic circulation.
As a result of this principle of action, no side effects are observed after ointments, as opposed to taking medication.
The effective action of papilloma ointments is due to their properties:
- destruction of infected cells.
- stimulation of the immune system;
- anesthesia;
- antiviral property;
- anti-inflammatory effect.
Each ointment for the treatment of papilloma has a unique composition and you should choose the right medicine carefully. One ointment can combine all the properties, while the other can be directional.
For example, salicylic ointment has anti-inflammatory action, destroys benign cells.
Before using ointments from plantar or dry papillae, the affected area of skin should evaporate and dry with a clean, soft towel, only then lubricate it with the selected product.
The active ingredients of the ointment fall into the structure of the papilla, acting on the cells affected by the virus.
But an effective result can be achieved if the virus is not active enough.
Modern pharmacies offer a huge variety of ointments for papillomas, but there are many popular treatments.
Salicylic ointment
Salicylic ointment for papilloma removal is one of the available and effective means to get rid of the defect.
But as a result of applying the product to the skin, unpleasant local reactions may occur.
To remove the neoplasms, it is necessary to apply a composition with a concentration of 60%, as a result, after applying the ointment to the tumor, a burning sensation occurs and painful sensations occur.
After applying a thin layer of the product to the nipple steam, it should be secured with a bandage and left for 12 hours.
You need to repeat the process every day until the result is achieved.
There are many other ointments to treat papillomas. The most suitable medicine will be recommended by a specialist.
Papilloma cream
The cream also acts effectively on external factors that affect the activation and growth of viruses. It strengthens the body and strengthens the immune system, which helps to improve the fight against HPV.
Before applying the cream, the detection area should be washed with soap and dried, then a thin layer of cream is applied and left for 10 hours without being bandaged, after which it is rinsed with warm soapy water.
The procedure should be done once a day until the formation is completely removed, but we must remember that the maximum period of use of the cream is 4 months.
Homemade ointments
Effective nipple ointments can be made independently using ingredients you can always find at home.
There are several best recipes for wart creams:
- garlic cream. It is easy to prepare by cutting 1 clove of garlic and mixing it with 1 teaspoon of face or hand cream. Apply the resulting mass to the affected area and fasten with a bandage for 5 hours, then rinse. Perform the procedure for a month. Instead of garlic, you can use chopped young celandine.

Tips for choosing an ointment for papillomas
It is not recommended to choose a treatment for papilloma removal yourself; you should consult a doctor first. It is important to make sure of the good quality of the selected product and to see the expiration date.
The choice of ointment should be based on the location of the formations, their number and size (the maximum size of the treated area is 20 cm square), the degree of activity of the virus.
You should be familiar with the contraindications, which mainly include diabetes mellitus and disorders of metabolic processes in the body.
Some ointments are intended for the treatment of papillomas in the mucous membranes, while others - for the skin. The composition of the drug plays an important role, because some ointments may consist of herbal ingredients, while others will contain acids.
Also, keep in mind that an integrated approach to treating HPV is needed. And it is better to choose ointments that have more than 2 properties.
If the papules are located in the genitals, then it is necessary to check for the possibility of degeneration in oncology before starting treatment.
