Papillomas appear on human skin as small oval neoplasms that, although benign, still require timely treatment.
This is due to the fact that prolonged uncontrolled growth and spread of hyperplasia of epidermal structures can lead to malignant degeneration of skin growths and the formation of precancerous and oncological conditions.
The cause of the formation of papillomas and warts on the human body is exclusively viral in nature and is associated with human papillomavirus (HPV) infection, which has more than 100 varieties. Not only the location and size of the tumor depends on the HPV subtype, but also the risk of oncogenicity of the skin growth. The activation of atypical cell growth can be triggered by a strong decrease in immunity, hormonal changes or stress factors and fatigue. A healthy person with a perfectly functioning immune system may not observe the formation and growth of papillomas, even if he is a carrier of a viral agent.
How to treat papillomas at home?
Due to the prevalence and relevance of the problem, many patients are wondering how to remove papilloma at home, without health risks. This problem requires a rational and responsible approach, since numerous drugs and folk remedies have many contraindications and are not always 100% effective.

There are two main areas of recommendations that allow you to remove papilloma at home:
- Pharmacological correction of tumors using pharmaceutical products;
- Treatment of papilloma virus with folk remedies.
We will try to analyze the main aspects of both methods, as well as determine the best hardware method for treating papillomas and warts.
Get rid of papillomas at home using medications
The modern pharmaceutical industry offers patients numerous compounds that show some effectiveness in terms of self-rejection of papillomas and warts. The most popular are substances that in medicine are called cryopharmaceuticals, which provide rapid freezing of the skin defect, leading to its painless separation from the epidermal tissue. Such compositions should be used to remove papillomas at home with extreme caution, without affecting healthy tissues and skin structures.
As a convenient form of the drug for the destruction of epidermal tumors, special plasters (adhesive tapes) impregnated with certain compounds are produced. Such "stickers" are applied to a wart or papilloma and are removed after three hours along with skin growth. Ointments and gels can also have a certain effect, but the probability of finally eliminating papillomas at home with the help of pharmaceuticals does not exceed 50%.
Treatment of warts and papillomas with folk remedies
Traditional medicine offers many time-tested recipes that also have a certain antiviral and destructive activity. When choosing a folk remedy for papillomas, you should pay attention to the following compositions:
- Potato juice.By drinking 100-200 grams of fresh potato juice every morning, the patient strengthens the immune system and improves overall health, which will help not only get rid of already formed papillomas, but also prevent the appearance of new growths.
- Celandine for papillomas.The product is based on the chemical destruction of the tumor with the help of acid, which celandine juice is rich in. For the procedure, in addition to juice, you can use the leaves or infusion of this plant, purchased at the pharmacy. Manipulation involves the targeted application of celandine-based products every two days on the epidermal defect, which leads to rejection of the neoplasm. When treating papillomas with celandine, precautions should be taken not to apply the product to healthy tissue.
- Treatment of papillomas with iodine.About 3 grams of iodine is mixed with an equal amount of aspirin and boric acid and diluted with alcohol. Regular application of this composition to the papilloma will lead to its elimination. Folk remedies for warts and papillomas based on iodine cannot be used in the eyelid area, as well as on the mucous membranes.
- Treatment of papillomas with garlic.The technique involves the daily application of a cut garlic clove to the site of epidermal growth. Regular manipulations of this type promise to save the patient from papillomas of any localization, especially in the arm area.
- Treatment of papillomas with wormwood.Treatment of papillomas with folk remedies based on wormwood is rather aimed at strengthening the general condition of the body and, in particular, the immune system. A decoction of wormwood seeds, tricolor violet and dill is a wonderful general strengthening and immunostimulating agent.
Before choosing a folk recipe for yourself, you should understand that it is impossible to carry out a complete and final treatment of human papillomavirus with folk remedies, and all the compositions described above may not be effective for a particular patient.
