Condyloma-pube warts

Condyloma or sex warts are a viral disease. Condylomas are accumulations of multiplied infected skin cells or genital mucosa. In addition to damaging the skin / mucous membrane architecture, condylomas also initiate abnormal blood vessel growth that provides nutrition.

Condyloma causes so-called Human Papilloma Virus (HPV). So far, 150 types of this virus have been identified and there are over 190 of them. Different types of viruses cause different types of condyloma. HPV types vary in condyloma growth rate, aggression, healthy skin / mucous membrane involvement rate, condom appearance, and malignant potential. The rate of growth and spread of the condyloma is also thought to depend on the immune system of the infected person. HPV attacks all the squamous epithelium on the body, including the mucous membranes of the mouth, eyelids, anus, and the like. Studies show that the HPV virus infection rate is up to 70%, but only a small percentage of people have symptoms of infection - condylomas. This phenomenon is explained by the spontaneous "cleansing" of the virus - that is, natural self-healing. The speed and intensity of this process depends on the state of the immune system of the infected person. If so-called low - risk types (6,11,41,43,44) occur genital warts (condyllomata accuminata), which are infectious and sexually transmitted. High - risk types of viruses (16,18,31,35,39,45,51,52,56) can be dangerous because they cause abnormalities of cervical epithelium (cervical epithelial dysplasia). Chronic HPV infection increases the risk of cervical cancer. Most women with a positive HPV test will not get genital warts or cervical dysplasia. Dietary infection is possible during childbirth. Condylomas are considered to be transmitted most commonly through direct sexual contact, although the possibility of waxing (warm wax) or shaving with a shared / alien razor is not excluded. The HPV virus is transmitted by blood (transfusion) or as a drip infection. Two prerequisites are required for HPV infection;
1 - micro-trauma of the skin / mucous membrane so-called "front door"

2 - direct contact of the skin / mucous membranes with the skin / mucous membranes of the infected person or their secretions
The diagnosis of condyloma is made on the basis of examination, colposcopy, pap smear, biopsy and HPV typing. In this office, condylomas are treated - removed with a radio surgical knife that, with the help of high frequencies, successfully removes condoms with minimal skin defects and rapid recovery after intervention. The intervention is done under local anesthesia.
