Initially, papillomas on the anus are small dark spots or growths. They increase in size over time. Such formations cannot be ignored, it is better to immediately consult a doctor.

Human papillomavirus is a common disease, with 70 to 90% of people on the planet carrying it. But most often HPV "sleeps" in the human body and wakes up with a decrease in immunity. Then papillomas appear on the priest and other parts of the body.

Genital warts or papillomas can appear on the anus and genitals. Due to constant friction in this area, they can injure and bleed. It is these formations that are most dangerous, since with the blood of the damaged warts, the buttock can become inflamed.

Classification of pathology

There are several varieties of papillomas. Here are the main ones:

1. Simple - vulgar or common.
2. Plantar - formed on the soles of the feet.
3. Flat - protrude only 2 mm above the skin surface.
4. Filiform - they grow on a thin stem, elongated.
5. Genital warts are papillary formations that grow both singly and in groups.

Reasons for education

All papillomas that appear on the human body, including in the anus, are caused by the papilloma virus. The HPV virus has the following characteristics:

1. You can get infected by contact.
2. Infection can occur through damaged skin, scratches, abrasions, wounds, etc.
3. Infection occurs in childhood.
4. The virus can stay in the body for a long time in a dormant state, with a decrease in immunity, it is activated.
5. Getting rid of HPV completely is extremely difficult, sometimes impossible. But if the human immune system does not malfunction, then the papilloma does not manifest itself.

The following factors can provoke the onset of the disease:

1. Significant weakening of the immune system.
2. Exposure to negative environmental factors and bad habits such as smoking and alcohol.
3. Taking certain medications.
4. Exacerbation of intestinal or stomach diseases, colds.
5. Long-term use of oral contraceptives.

Wart is the popular name for such formations. The ways of transmission of HPV are as follows: sexual; children become infected at birth, passing through the birth canal; contact. In the latter case, the direct entry of the virus through contact of one person with another is not provided. These can be shared and personal items such as a towel, bedding, razor, washcloth, toothbrush, etc.

There were cases when people became infected with the virus in hairdressing salons, beauty salons, in the dentist's office. All this indicated insufficient disinfection of the instruments. As a result, the person had to subsequently be treated for the papilloma virus. Once in the human body, the virus does not always manifest itself immediately. If the infected person has strong immunity, then, perhaps, the papilloma will never manifest itself.

However, appearing in the anus, warts tend to grow rapidly. This is facilitated by the following circumstances:

1. The anus is warm and humid.
2. Friction causes the anal papillomas to spread.
3. This is a favorable environment for microorganisms.
4. It is not always possible to keep this place clean all the time.

Disease symptoms

Papillomas on the anus are often called polyps or condylomas. Their danger is that they can transform into cancerous tumors. This probability increases if the place of formation is constantly injured, and the area of \u200b\u200bthe anus is just most often subject to such influences.

In the initial period, papilloma diseases in the anus are almost invisible and do not cause discomfort to a person, sometimes they can only be detected by endoscopy.

Later, the following symptoms appear that you should pay attention to:

• the presence of abdominal pain;
• diarrhea;
• constipation;
• the appearance of blood from the anus.

Over time, a person develops the following symptoms of the disease:

1. Feeling that a foreign body is present in the anus.
2. False urge to empty the bowels.
3. Itching and burning in the anus, which are felt constantly.
4. The area around the anus hurts.
5. There is dampness and constant wetness near the anus.
6. Defecation is painful.
7. Mucous formations in the anus.

Papillomas on the anus indicate a long process of intestinal papillomatosis. They can be permanently injured, and this is a direct route for infection, especially if feces get into the growths around the anus. Such formations can develop into cancer over time.

Diagnostic measures

The disease is dealt with by a proctologist. He is unable to draw a conclusion based on the visual examination of the patient and his complaints. Only diagnostic measures, especially sigmoidoscopy, will make it possible to make an accurate diagnosis. Thanks to sigmoidoscopy, the doctor will be able to fully examine the patient's intestines and detect the presence of papillomas.

In addition, the doctor may conduct other examinations:

1. Part of the tissue or scraping of the papilloma is taken for examination.
2. Sometimes the patient is asked to have a complete blood count.

Symptoms that appear, indicating the presence of HPV, require immediate medical attention, otherwise the warts will grow, causing more and more trouble.

Pathology treatment

Even treatment will not save you from the possibility of papillomas reappearing. This is due to the viral nature of the formations. After the course of therapy and the complete disappearance of the growths, the patient should be regularly examined in order to identify the foci of the appearance of warts in time and neutralize them. An effective method of treating papillomas is their complete excision. It is carried out in different ways depending on the chosen technique.

Removal of anal warts can be done in several ways:

1. With a laser.
2. The use of an electric knife.
3. With a traditional scalpel.
4. Radioactive treatment.

Papillomas often appear throughout the body, so not only formations inside or around the anus, but also located in other places, are subject to removal. After the procedure for excision of the papilloma, a histological examination is carried out to determine the possible transformation into oncology.

Most often, after treatment, condylomas in the anus do not bother a person for a long time. In rare cases, they reappear. If this happens, then complex therapy is carried out, aimed primarily at restoring the immune system:

1. Taking antiviral drugs.
2. Appointment of immunomodulators.
3. Taking vitamins.
4. Vitamin-enriched food.

The reasons that often lead to the reappearance of papillomas:

1. Low immunity.
2. Smoking and alcoholism.
3. Lack of personal hygiene.
4. Promiscuous sex.
5. Lack of treatment at the initial stage, when the disease was already started.
6. Failure to follow the doctor's recommendations.

How to prevent warts

In order not to engage in HPV treatment later, it is more expedient to prevent it. If you follow a number of simple rules, then the papilloma will manifest itself as insignificant formations or remain in the body in a dormant state.

The following actions will minimize the risk of papillomas:

1. Perform daily hygiene procedures for the genitals and anus.
2. Refuse casual sex, the partner must be constant. If you are unsure of a person, use a condom.
3. Give up bad habits.
4. Lead a healthy lifestyle.
5. Avoid stressful situations.
6. Monitor your health, if it worsens, treat it promptly.
7. Treatment is carried out by a doctor, try to follow all his recommendations.
8. Follow treatments that boost your immune system.
9. If build-ups appear, do not try to remove them yourself.

Since the disease is characteristic of both adults and children, you should watch your child more closely and listen to his complaints. Papilloma in a child should be identified as early as possible and cured. Only vigilance and timely diagnosis of the disease can guarantee success in treatment. If the disease was diagnosed in one of the sexual partners, then both should be treated.

Papillomas on the anus can be a nuisance. The culprit of their spread is the papillomavirus. The danger of such neoplasms is the high risk of malignancy in the absence of proper therapy.

According to statistics, about eighty percent of the world's inhabitants are carriers of HPV (human papillomavirus). Most of them may not be aware that they are infected. This is due to the "dormant" phase of the papillomavirus. During this period, HPV does not manifest itself in any way. The activation of papillomavirus and the development of papillomatosis are facilitated by:

• Decreased immunity due to an acute viral or bacterial infection;
• Physical or emotional stress;
• Hormonal changes in adolescents, pregnant women, or breastfeeding mothers;
• Undergoing chemotherapy;
• Long-term use of antibiotics or steroids;
• Use of hormonal contraceptives or a coil;
• Exacerbation of chronic gastrointestinal diseases.

Classification of papillomas on the pope

Genital warts or papillomas that form around the anus are classified into the following subspecies:

1. Single large;
2. Multiple, merging into one formation;
3. Small ones.

Very often, on a superficial examination, papilloma and wart are confused. A distinctive feature of papillomas is the "leg". Thin or, in isolated cases, wide. The surface of the papilloma is scaly. The color of the formation is from whitish to dark brown. Localization of genital warts - the skin around the anus or rectal mucosa. The second variety often causes problems with timely emptying (constipation). It is much more difficult to diagnose such internal formations.

Infection routes

Penetrating into the human body, the papillomavirus settles on the lower layer of the dermis. The incubation or "dormant" period of the disease can last for several months, and sometimes years. At this time, HPV is located exclusively in the layers of the skin or mucous membranes. After the transition of the disease to the active stage, a sharp growth of the virus cells begins, they are introduced into the DNA of the dermis cells, provoking their proliferation and the appearance of growths. At this moment, a sick person becomes dangerous to others, since the possibility of transmission of the papillomavirus opens up.

Why is the transmission of perianal papilloma

Human papillomavirus infection occurs through sexual contact with an infected partner. The use of contraceptives does not provide one hundred percent guarantee of protection against infection.

The risk of infection is directly proportional to the duration of sexual contact with an infected partner.

HPV can enter the bloodstream through microtrauma of the skin or mucous membranes. The skin in the genital area is much thinner, so the risk of injury is much higher. Blood from a damaged tumor increases the chances of infection spreading.

Anal papillomatosis symptoms

The initial stage of the development of the disease is accompanied by the following symptoms:

• Itching or burning sensation around the anus;
• The onset of painful sensations during bowel movements, occasionally with insignificant bleeding;
• Feeling of swelling of the anus or finding a foreign body in it;
• Constant feeling of moisture on the bottom;
• Profuse mucus from the anus;
• A slight increase in body temperature up to 37 degrees.

Contacting a specialist

Many are interested in the question of which doctor to go to if papillomas grow on the buttocks or around the anus, and whether it is worth seeking help from a specialist at all. The doctor-proctologist deals with growths near the anus or in the rectum.

The risk of malignancy of benign lesions in the anal area is very high.

This is due to the permanent injury of genital warts in the rectum. It is possible to avoid the growth of a neoplasm into an oncological disease only by timely seeking qualified medical help and starting therapy.

Diagnosis of anal papillomatosis in most cases consists in examination, interviewing the patient and, if necessary, sigmoidoscopy. Such a study allows the proctologist to assess the complete picture of the disease and prescribe an effective treatment.

Anal neoplasm therapy

It is possible to treat genital warts by various methods, the effectiveness of each of them depends on the individual characteristics of the patient, the history of chronic diseases, the course of papillomatosis. The decision on the choice of the therapy method is made by the attending physician.

Removal of genital warts

The condition for the effectiveness of therapy for papillomatosis of the anus is the complete removal of growths. You can get rid of a neoplasm using:

• Laser destruction... Under the influence of a laser beam, the cells of the formation are evaporated layer by layer. The advantage of laser exposure is minimal blood loss. The complete healing process takes several weeks;
• Radio knife... The non-contact method allows you to remove the papilloma, eliminating the likelihood of developing a secondary infection. Complete healing takes seven to twelve days;
• Cryodestruction... Freezing the neoplasm with liquid nitrogen. A small scar may appear at the site of the removed formation. The wound takes about ten to fourteen days to heal;
• Electrocoagulation... With the help of a high-frequency current, the build-up is burned out. Healing takes three to four weeks;
• Surgical operation... The doctor uses a scalpel to resect the papilloma along with the root. Surgical excision is recommended for overgrown papillomas with deep roots.

The risk of recurrence of papillomatosis is due to the viral nature of the disease. Therefore, you should remain under the supervision of a specialist even after the complete disappearance of the rash.

Pharmacy products

Human papillomavirus pharmaceuticals are aimed at strengthening the body's immune defenses. These include:

1. Viferon. Immunomodulatory agent, release form - gel or rectal suppositories;
2. Genferon. An interferon substitute produced by the body in response to a viral attack. Genferon in the form of anal suppositories is recommended for the complex therapy of papillomatosis;
3. Allokin-alpha is available in the form of ampoules, used to treat papillomas with an increased risk of malignancy;
4. Likopid - tablets with an immunostimulating effect;
5. Immunomax is a solution for injections that activates the body's defenses;
6. Epigenes. Release form - a spray, relieves unpleasant symptoms (swelling, burning), increases the body's immune response, promotes healing of wounds after surgical excision of genital warts.

Local preparations

To remove papillomas around the anus, local antiviral ointments or an adhesive plaster soaked in a special composition are used at home. The main thing with home therapy is to prevent damage to healthy skin areas. Given the location of the papillomas, the patient will need outside help.

Solcoderm and Polofyllotoxin in the form of an ointment, is used for the local treatment of papillomatosis on the anus. It is required to apply the ointment carefully, in order to avoid getting the product on healthy skin. May lead to scarring of healthy tissue.

With the help of an adhesive plaster with a special composition, you can remove the growths in a few hours. The procedure is quite painful due to strong squeezing of the growths. To relieve pain, the affected area should be wetted with water.

Folk recipes for anal papillomas

Traditional medicine offers its own ways to deal with anal papillomatosis:

• Moisten defects with potato juice, decoction of wild rose, horsetail, tincture of nettle or plantain two to three times a day. Continue treatment until the problem is completely eliminated;
• Juice from the stem of freshly picked celandine is carefully processed exclusively by the growth itself. To protect healthy skin around the growth, you should lubricate it with a greasy cream or petroleum jelly;
• Chaga can increase the effectiveness of using celandine. After preparing a decoction of these two components, it is cooled, poured into molds and sent to the freezer. Ice cubes are applied to the growths for two to three minutes twice a day;
• Iodine solution is used to get rid of anal papillomas. It is necessary to spot the neoplasm with iodine, avoiding contact with healthy skin, two to three times a day.

When making your choice in favor of one or another method of getting rid of neoplasms, remember that traditional methods of treatment require a lot of time and are not always effective. It is better to consult a specialist in the initial stages of the disease.

Video in the topic

Papilloma is a benign neoplasm that occurs on the skin of a person or throughout the body, or in one specific area. Most often it is a small, bumpy growth that rises above the surface of the skin, in color from dark pink to brown.

Such growths, which medical specialists sometimes call "papillary", can be of different sizes: from 1-2 millimeters to several centimeters.

The main reason for the appearance of neoplasms is the penetration of the human papillomavirus into the body, the activity of which affects cellular activity and regulation and provokes pathological tissue proliferation.

There are a large number of types of this virus, they are classified according to the nature of oncogenicity:

• not related to oncogenic nature;
• papillomaviruses of an oncogenic nature, characterized by a low risk of developing cancer cells;
• related to an oncogenic nature with a high risk of developing oncology.

Anal papillomas are benign growths in the anus. Sometimes they merge into multiple lumpy growths called "islets".

Types of anal formations

Specialist doctors classify papillomas in the anus not only by the degree of their carcinogenic hazard, but also by their appearance:

Papillomas can be both single and randomly located, surrounding the anus with a ring or growing with large tubercles.

Causes of growths in the anus

The human papillomavirus enters the body due to a sharp weakening of the immune system. An infected person can be a carrier for a very long time, without even knowing about it. According to statistics, according to various sources, about 60-80% of the population are carriers of the virus.

The weakening of the body's defense systems and the activation of a pathogenic virus can occur for the following reasons:

Most often, the occurrence of papilloma, genital warts is influenced not by one specific reason, but by a complex blow to the body's defense systems.

Manifestations and signs

If the size of the anal papillomas is small, then the disease can proceed without showing any symptoms. Very often, papillomas of the anus are detected in those patients who do not have pronounced symptoms, but have homosexual relationships in their lives.

In cases where the increase is noticeable, large and causes discomfort, the following symptoms appear:

• due to injury to the growths;
• slight bleeding when warts rub against underwear;
• permanent;
• feeling of a foreign object in the anus or near;
• painful sensations when walking;
• unpleasant smell from wet spots on underwear, which always appear in the acute stage of condylomatosis;
• feeling of "moisture" in the anus.

Most often, the constant touching of genital warts is fraught with a quick infection, the onset of an inflammatory process and subsequent suppuration.

Papillomas swell, turn red, hurt very much. The patient may have a serious deterioration in health and a rise in body temperature.

In cases where a growth has formed in the rectum, in addition to the symptoms listed above, the patient may have a feeling of a foreign body along the intestine, such as a pimple.

Diagnostics by a proctologist

In order to determine the disease and prescribe the most effective and rational methods of treatment, the coloproctologist conducts the following types of diagnostics:

1. Visual inspection the patient in the anus () for the presence of papillomas. Collection of information about the symptoms that bother the patient, lifestyle, chronic concomitant diseases.
2. Coloproctological instrumental examination - anoscopy with a high resolution microscope. This type of diagnosis helps to find out if the deformation of the rectal epithelium has occurred.

If any symptom appears, a doctor's consultation and treatment are required, since the neoplasm can turn into an oncological form.

How to get rid of growths in the anus

The method of treatment for papillomas in the anus is selected by several specialist doctors: a dermatologist, an immunologist and a coloproctologist surgeon, depending on the stage of the disease, the clinical picture and the individual characteristics of the patient.

Complete removal of all genital warts by means of destruction or excision will be required. There are a large number of methods for getting rid of the patient from genital warts in the anus:

How does electrocoagulation of papilloma, warts and other formations take place:

Regardless of the chosen method of treatment, after therapy, it will be necessary to conduct a mandatory tissue biopsy for subsequent morphological examination. As a rule, the surgeon tries to minimize injury to healthy areas of the anus.

Since treatment is very often complicated by bleeding, many experts insist on obligatory electrocautery for each of the bases of the excised genital warts.

Consequences and preventive measures

Since the disease is provoked by a virus, simple removal of papillomas solves only the problem of appearance and discomfort. The virus remains for a long time, sometimes without manifesting itself clinically for a long time.

Lack of treatment or a bad attitude towards it can provoke a relapse of the disease. Patients who have successfully got rid of the problem will need to be regularly examined by a specialist.

In order to prevent reactivation of the virus, the patient is prescribed antiviral and immunomodulatory drugs immediately after treatment and preventive courses several times a year, which activate the body's natural defenses.

The methods of prevention also include the normalization of daily and nutritional regimes, adherence to a diet that includes the necessary nutritional vitamins and minerals for the body. You will need to give up bad habits and unhealthy eating habits. Be sure to follow the rules of personal hygiene and thoroughly clean the skin around the anus.

After removal of anal warts, women are also recommended to have regular additional examination by a gynecologist to prevent the appearance of neoplasms on the mucous membranes of the vagina and cervix. Men are additionally assigned to take smears from the urethra for analysis.

Unfortunately, no one is immune from the appearance of papillomas on the body - small growths that look like warts on a wide flat base or on a thin stalk. They can suddenly "grow" almost anywhere on the body:

• on the face;
• in the groin;
• on hands or feet;
• in the genital area.

One of the most unpleasant manifestations of the disease is anal papillomas. So, papillomas in the anus - what are the reasons for their appearance and how can you get rid of them?

Anal papillomas: causes of occurrence

Strange-looking neoplasms are caused by the human papillomavirus. There are many varieties of the virus - scientists have identified more than 8 dozen subtypes. It is possible that not all viruses have been discovered yet, and in the future the "collection" will be replenished.

Anal papillomas can form due to the presence of HPV in the body:

• low oncogenic risk;
• high oncogenic risk.

The former include 6, 11, 42, 43, 55, 54 and other subtypes. The second group includes 16, 18, 31 and a few more strains. A patient who is worried about papilloma near the anus cannot independently determine which of the strains caused it. It is necessary to undergo a study, during which the doctor will determine which HPV gave impetus to the development of papilloma of the anal canal, and prescribe treatment.

Anal papilloma: is it possible to get infected?

Papillomas are known to be highly contagious. Direct contact of even slightly damaged skin or mucous membranes with a build-up can become a trigger factor for the onset of rapid growth of a neoplasm in a previously healthy person.

At the same time, the carriage of the virus is widespread. There may not be papillomas near the anus, but a person has a virus in his blood and, upon contact, transfers it to another. True, the probability of transmission in the absence of external manifestations is much lower than when there are already papillomas.

Transmission ways:

• sexual;
• household (extremely rare);
• during childbirth - from mother to child.

Most often, if one of the partners has papillomas in the anus, the second will notice similar manifestations after a while. But sometimes the opposite situation happens: one partner has a papilloma in the anal canal, reappears after removal, and the other will never mark its appearance in his entire life. The reason lies in the state of the human immune system: with weak immunity, neoplasms are difficult to treat and tend to relapse, and with a strong one, a person can forever remain only a carrier of the virus, and only a blood test can determine whether he is infected.

Sexually transmitted infection can occur even with the use of a condom, since any contact of an infected person with the skin and mucous membranes of a healthy person, which has the slightest wounds or abrasions, contribute to the penetration of the virus into the body.

Papilloma in the anus, when infected by the household route, can appear if family members use one shared towel.

During childbirth, the child is easily infected from the mother, passing through the birth canal. Therefore, it is very important to treat papillomas before the upcoming birth of a child.

Diagnosis of the disease

One visual examination is not enough to get rid of neoplasms in the anus. First of all, the patient must make an appointment with a proctologist. To do this, you will first have to take a coupon for an appointment with a therapist, who will already refer you to a narrow specialist.

In the future, you may need another consultation with:

• gynecologist;
• andrologist or urologist (for men);
• immunologist.

The proctologist will examine the neoplasms and, possibly, prescribe a coloproctological instrumental examination. This is necessary if the growths are observed not only in the anus, but go deeper.

Next, the doctor prescribes a blood test for HPV. Only after receiving the results can he assess how high the risk of papillomas degenerating into a malignant tumor. In any case, regardless of the type of HPV, treatment begins with the removal of the neoplasm. The method of removal and further tactics are chosen by the doctor in each case individually.

When diagnosing, it is necessary to differentiate neoplasms from wide warts, which are observed in syphilitic lesions, and from molluscum contagiosum. In addition, it is very important to distinguish them from a malignant tumor.

Symptoms of the appearance of papillomas

A patient may suspect that he has papillomas if:

• there is a constant sensation of moisture in the anus;
• seals are felt in the anus;
• the skin itches, sores;
• soreness is felt during the act of defecation.

Severe pain is rare. Sometimes the patient notes such a symptom as a feeling of the presence of a foreign body in the anus. Sometimes blood is released - this is what happens when papillomas are traumatized. A person can take the phenomenon for an attack of hemorrhoids, stop the release of blood with suppositories or ointments and miss the time to see a doctor.

Anal papillomas: treatment

Treatment of neoplasms is carried out in different ways.

The first thing the doctor will do is direct the patient to remove anal papillomas. This is necessary to prevent malignancy of the process.

After that, immunotherapy is mandatory, the purpose of which is to "wake up" the body's defenses and make them attack the virus so that it falls into a latent state. Then the disease will not threaten the person.

The destruction of papillomas is carried out in different ways.

Removal of anal papillomas

To combat the external manifestation of the virus, the following methods are used:

• electrocoagulation;
• cryodestruction;
• laser destruction;
• the introduction of podophyllin.

Treatment by the first method is carried out using local anesthesia. It gives good results, papillomas rarely re-form.

Cryodestruction requires special attention from the doctor performing a mini-operation, because it can be difficult to assess the depth of the papilloma and remove it to the base.

Laser treatment sometimes gives such a complication: the smallest particles of papilloma containing the virus, when sprayed, fall on other injured areas of the skin and mucous membranes, which causes the growth of papillomas far from the first, "maternal" ones. Therefore, it is necessary to protect the skin and mucous membranes of the patient himself and the doctor performing the procedure.

The introduction of podophyllin (or its purified form - podophyllotoxin) allows to achieve the destruction of neoplasms without the slightest trauma. The medicine, which is the resin of the podophyllium tree, is injected directly into the place of accumulation of papillomas. In most cases, tumors regress and gradually die off. The danger here is as follows: sometimes the medicine can cause damage to healthy areas of the skin, erythema, itching, inflammation. To prevent this from happening, the doctor applies the agent pointwise, as accurately as possible. The patient should wash off the drug after 6-8 hours.

There is one more difficulty: getting on the papillomas, podophyllin produces changes in them, which can sometimes be confused with the manifestations of carcinoma. Therefore, doctors do not use the drug as often, despite its seeming safety.

Vaccination is more effective. Within 6 weeks, the patient receives a dose of medication once a day. Injections are performed directly into the papillomas. As a result, neoplasms disappear on their own.

Further treatment (after removal) is the stimulation of the immune system. Drugs that "spur" the patient's own immunity are injected into the affected area or prescribed in the form of tablets. After a course of treatment, the virus may not bother a person for a long time. It is possible that he will never give external manifestations again.

Traditional methods

Sometimes you can get rid of anal papillomas yourself. However, one must be aware that by neglecting the examination, the patient risks his health: what he took for papilloma may turn out to be a malignant tumor. The consequences are unpredictable.

Traditional methods of treatment include the use of:

• celandine;
• oxolinic ointment;
• iodine.

The drugs are applied to papillomas daily until they completely dry out and disappear. It should be borne in mind: antiviral therapy was not carried out, therefore papillomas can easily reappear with the slightest decrease in immunity.

Anal papillomas are unpleasant. They should be disposed of immediately to avoid unwanted consequences. The psychological factor is also important: the presence of such neoplasms causes complexes and severe depressive conditions. Treat papillomas with a full course - and you will forget about them forever.

Papilloma is a small neoplasm on the skin that can appear anywhere. They are not particularly dangerous, as they are benign formations. But, nevertheless, they bring a lot of troubles in aesthetic terms. If papillomas form on mucous membranes or parts of the body with sensitive skin, they can cause pain. So, papillomas in the anus cause an unpleasant feeling. How to deal with them? This issue should be considered in detail.

Causes of growths in the anus

The main reason for the appearance of growths is the defeat of the human body by the human papillomavirus. Infection occurs in the following ways:

• at the time of unprotected sexual contact with an affected person;
• from mother to child during childbirth;
• through a kiss.

In some people with HPV, the disease may not manifest as neoplasms for a long period. But a decrease in immunity contributes to their formation.

Important to remember! Neoplasms should be disposed of as quickly as possible! After all, they can develop into a malignant tumor. Especially in places where the skin is exposed to friction. These are the papillomas on the anus.

Disease symptoms - photo

It is quite difficult to identify neoplasms in this place if they are not localized near the anus. In this case, they can be clearly seen. If papillomas are not visible visually, their appearance can be determined using the following signs:

• fighting sensations in the abdominal cavity;
• dysfunction of the gastrointestinal tract;
• bloody discharge from the anus;
• severe itching in the anus.

Neoplasms that have appeared in this place must be removed. This is due to constant exposure to papillomas. As a result, benign formations can transform into malignant tumors due to their constant inflammation.

Papillomas in the anus of a child

The human papillomavirus can form in a child from the mother at the time of childbirth, as well as through the household through hygiene items. As a result, neoplasms may appear in the anus. Symptoms in a child are the same as in an adult.

In order to cure papillomas in children, you need to consult a specialist. In some cases, antiviral medication will be sufficient. If conservative treatment is not enough, the doctor will select the most effective and safe surgical removal.
