How to treat human papillomavirus positivity

Human papillomavirus positivity is categorized into low-risk and high-risk types, and the specific treatment plan depends on the type of human papillomavirus and also on the site of infection. If it is a low-risk type of human papillomavirus, and the site of viral infection is only localized in the skin or vulva, the treatment is based on laser, freezing or some medication, and the cure rate is very high. If it is a high-risk type of papillomavirus infection, it depends on the specific site. If the cervix is infected with high-risk types of human papillomavirus, especially types 16 and 18, further colposcopy is needed because these two types of papillomavirus infections are the definite causes of cervical cancer, so colposcopy should be carried out to clarify whether there are pre-cancerous lesions on the cervix for cervical cancer or cervical cancer. or cervical cancer. If the HPV infection is high-risk, but outside the cervix, the treatment options may be laser, cryotherapy, or some medications. At present, there are some interferon agents or agents claiming to be able to cure high-risk HPV infection on the market, but the effect has not been recognized by clinical experts, so it is generally not recommended to use them. Most of the HPV infections can be cleared up within 6 months or so if the body’s resistance is normal.
