What to do if female genital warts test positive in physical examination

Positive physical examination results for female genital warts can be intervened through medication, physical therapy, surgical treatment, immunotherapy, and daily care. Genital warts are usually caused by human papillomavirus infection and present as genital warts, which are contagious.

1. Drug therapy

Following the doctor's advice, using imiquimod cream can locally regulate immune response and inhibit virus proliferation; Guijiu toxin tincture works by disrupting the structure of wart cells; Interferon gel assisted antiviral therapy. Drug therapy is suitable for cases with small or few warts, and it is necessary to avoid drug contact with normal skin and mucous membranes.

2. Physical therapy

Liquid nitrogen cryotherapy uses low temperature to cause necrosis and shedding of warts, which is suitable for scattered warts; Carbon dioxide laser can accurately vaporize wart tissue, resulting in faster wound healing. Temporary pigmentation may occur after physical therapy, and the wound should be kept clean and dry.

3. Surgical treatment

High frequency electric knife resection is suitable for larger warts or special site lesions; Shear surgery combined with electrocautery can completely remove keratinized warts. Surgical treatment should be performed under sterile conditions, and postoperative wound infection should be prevented.

4. Immunotherapy

Recombinant human interferon alpha 2b injection inhibits virus replication by enhancing cellular immune function; Oral thymosin enteric coated tablets regulate the immune status of the body. Immunotherapy is often used for patients with frequent recurrence and requires monitoring of adverse reactions such as liver function.

5. Daily care

During treatment, avoid sexual activity to prevent infection, choose cotton underwear to reduce friction and irritation, and regularly disinfect close fitting clothing. Keep the perineum clean but avoid excessive cleansing, and pay attention to supplementing high-quality protein and vitamins in the diet to enhance immunity. After the treatment of genital warts, regular follow-up for more than 6 months without recurrence is considered as clinical cure. Spouses should undergo simultaneous examinations and use condoms during sexual contact to reduce the risk of transmission. Avoid using public bath equipment and avoid pregnancy during illness. If there is an increase in wart size, bleeding, or abnormal secretion, timely follow-up should be sought, and all treatments must be carried out under the guidance of a dermatologist.
