Plantar warts are viral infections that are self-limiting.
1. Plantar warts are caused by human papilloma virus infection, which damages the local epidermal cells and causes abnormal differentiation and proliferation. If the body’s immune system is better at fighting disease, after a period of time, it may be able to clear the virus from the body, thus restoring the body’s function and making the plantar warts virus appear self-limiting. However, after getting well it does not mean that it will not recur or grow in other places.
2. Although the plantar warts are self-limiting, it is difficult for the warts to subside on their own, so you should actively go to the hospital for cryotherapy, which mainly involves applying liquid nitrogen to the warts, prompting the warts to necrose and fall off, so as to improve the appearance of the purpose. In addition, you can also follow the doctor’s instructions for electrocautery therapy, laser therapy, infrared coagulation treatment.
If the patient’s plantar warts symptoms are serious, or the symptoms continue to not get better, you should go to the hospital in time, under the guidance of the doctor for standardized treatment, do not blindly self-treatment.
