Hard growth on the foot is unusual.People often bring them to ordinary corn, but the causes of the neoplasm are different.
The original nature of the virus has plantar warts.People call it "field" for pain while walking, or "chicken ass" - for appearance.The "chicken" warts look like a very coarse keratinized growth on the feet, resembling colored cabbage, with black dots.
The seal often hurts, causing severe discomfort.You can get rid of them at home, but this is a relatively long process, without early diagnosis it can be dangerous.It's best to contact a specialist.Modern medicine offers many ways to get rid of papilloma quickly and painlessly.
The cause and symptoms of the disease
Subanary warts (like others) are not just cosmetic defects.Education is not malignant, has a contagious nature, caused by human papilloman.It is transmitted by contact (directly or indirectly) with infected.
More than one hundred HPV subspecies are known to science.Their carriers are up to 90% of people, but not everyone has warts.It depends on the condition of the human immune system.Papillomas are a sign of weakness of the protective barrier.
Additional risk factors for penetration of viruses into the body:
- Diabetes mellitus;
- increased sweating;
- Mr. Pedikur's service is not skilled;
- atherosclerosis;
- regularly use annoying home chemicals (to wash or clean the premises);
- uncomfortable, tight shoes;
- microscopic damage to the skin;
- disruption of blood circulation;
- wearing synthetic socks;
- flat feet;
- too dry skin;
- Do not comply with personal hygiene rules when visiting the pool, public baths.
There is a huge burden on their feet, so they, with improper care, are subject to the formation of not only papillomas.Before continuing the treatment, it is important to distinguish it from corn or corn.This can be done according to the features.
Symptoms of plantar warts:
- clear boundaries;
- diameter up to 2 cm;
- The fresh cage is pink, so it is dry, getting a brownish yellow color.In some cases, they are black, white or maintain the natural shade of the skin;
- In the early days, the plaque was smooth, without the skin pattern.Over time, he, undergoing pressure while walking, became rough;
- It has a multi -layer structure.Under the top of the keratin, the black points are available - this is a blood clot formed in damaged capillaries;
- Around large papilloma, bubbles and corn are formed;
- Neoplasms, which are formed first, are called "mother."Gradually, other papilloma - a subsidiary began to form around it.Over time, they combine, causing great damage.
Growth arises in people from any age.Characteristics of plantar warts in children are the high probability of their free loss as the child's immune system improves.
Localization
HPV, penetrating the body, settling in the basal layer of the epidermis.Although the virus is in passive conditions, the process occurs very slowly, without external manifestations.
When pathogens, under the influence of provoking factors are activated, it spreads to the dermis, subcutaneous fat.Plantar warts start to hurt when the virus affects the epithelial cornea.Papillomas are usually formed in solid areas that have maximum load during walking.The warts appear to be clipped between the shoes and the bones, the adjacent tissue is compacted, passing the foot nerves.The biggest discomfort is conveyed by the spikes on the heel, in the metatarsal bone area.
To distinguish papilloma from other skin formations, it is necessary to undergo an examination.
Diagnostics

Diagnostics and treatment with papilloma in the legs are under the control of dermatologists.Experts conduct dermatoscopy - make keratinized epithelial layers, send them to analyze to confirm (or deny) the presence of human papilloma virus.
If necessary, they make ultrasound - this allows you to understand how deep the plantar warts have evolved.
Different diagnosis is performed at:
- oncological suspicion;
- foot deformation;
- Routra syndrome to separate warts from keratoderma.
Attention:During syphilis on the feet and palms, the same growth appears!
They are very painful, have a ring shape or a half circle.Distinguishing them using "Analysis on RW" (Wasserman reaction).
Shall I have to go to the doctor
Before you start treating the pierce warts, it is advisable to consult your doctor.

After the examination, the doctor will choose the effective technique or the tool for removing the plantar warts.
Remove the plantar warts
How to get rid of "chicken" warts should make a decision by a doctor.Often, patients make mistakes, turn to remove papilloma to cosmetics, take it for corn rods.Shipitsa is a viral disease, it should be treated at a medical institution.
The easiest way is to eliminate fresh (up to three months from the time of formation), a single growth.Effective mechanical destruction methods:
- Cryodestruction;
- freezing laser;
- electrocoagulation;
- radio wave surgery;
- Surgical isolation.
Not everyone can perform the procedure.They have some general contraindications.Between them:
- hypertension;
- violent neoplasms;
- pregnancy;
- Diabetes mellitus;
- herpes in acute form;
- heat;
- skin damage in exposure area;
- The process of inflammation in the body.
We will analyze in more detail the main method.
Cryodestruction
The cryodestruction method means removing plantar warts with liquid nitrogen (at temperatures up to - 196 ° C).With freezing, the fabric affected by the virus is destroyed, new places are occupied by the new one.
Cryodestruction is carried out in two ways:
- standard,When liquid nitrogen is stored in damaged areas until white circles appear around the spike;
- aggressive,Where, after brightening the skin, the material is used for 15-20 seconds.This method of treatment is more effective, but it is very painful.
In the cases where deep freezing is required, the formation of scars is possible, and surface cauterization creates a high probability of relapse.If papilloma appears more than six months before going to the doctor, the effectiveness of the method is 39%.Fresh and small neoplasms are very rare.
After Cauterization by nitrogen, the exposure area becomes red.A few hours later, blisters were formed in this place, filled with serous liquid.She dries freely.The crust lasts a few weeks, after its fall, the "fresh" epithelium can be seen.
Attention:It is forbidden to open a bubble or seal with adhesive plaster!
During the recovery period, it is necessary to:
- protects the affected area from mechanical damage;
- Try not to get your feet wet;
- Twice a day treats wounds with antiseptic.
The positive moment of cryodestruction includes: the speed of the procedure (it lasts a maximum of 2 minutes), the possibility of manipulating without anesthesia.
Freezing of laser
Laser removal from plantar warts is the most popular method of treatment today.It is based on the high effects of the laser beam on the skin cells.Positive moments are the possibility of layered burning.During the procedure, the depth of exposure is controlled, leaving a healthy tissue.
When the glitter is removed, the beam simultaneously "seals" the capillary, which does not include the possibility of bleeding.Delivery is extremely rare.
Efficiency depends on heat wavelength.There are three types of freezing:
- Carbon dioxide laser helps eliminate growth in 70% of cases.It's less selective, compared to others.There is a risk of affecting a healthy skin layer;
- Erbiya is effective in 75% appeal;
- Laser impulse is the most reliable (efficiency reaches 95%).
After removing the plantar wart with the laser, in the first few days you should try not to wet your feet.The resulting crust cannot be deleted.Lubricant it is not required.
Electrocoagulation
High current burning is done under local anesthesia.During electrocoagulation, as in the case of laser effects, damaged blood vessels are welded, so blood loss is excluded.
The crust after the procedure lasts about 10 days.The wound during this period should be treated with antiseptic.
This method is effective if its growth is small, located near the surface of the skin.With deep exposure to the current, the scars may remain.
Radio wave surgery

Removal of removal by radio wave method occurs under the influence of high frequency (3.8-4.0 MHz) using special tools.
Manipulation is carried out in a non -contact way.The active electrode is directed to the papilloma, it cuts without damaging the neighboring tissue and without bleeding.
When burning warts, the skin epithelial layer is quickly restored.Scraining is excluded.
This procedure takes a few minutes, not painful, as the radio signal neutralizes the nerve endings in the exposure zone.The probability of relapse is only 2%.
Surgery isolation
Surgical isolation with a scalpel is the first method of removal.Now it is rarely used because of its trauma.This method is relevant when the plantar warts hit a large foot area, or have malignant properties.
Disadvantages of this methodology are very likely to be repeated, because in the process of cutting, infected blood enters healthy skin.Permanent scars.
After isolation, the stitches that need to be treated (best in medical institutions) are used for wounds.Remove it at 7-10 days after the procedure.
In the postoperative period, the intervention of ultraviolet radiation should be protected.For two months, it is necessary to refuse to visit the sauna and the pool.It is prohibited to apply for any ointment, except for the doctor prescribed.It is good to drink vitamin complex to speed up the regeneration process, strengthening immunity.
Even if you can try to get rid of it without surgery.

It is important to remember that the treatment of plantar warts involves their destruction by the chemicals or toxic substances of the drug.This creates some risks:
- Skin around growth can gain strong chemical burning;
