The cause of warts is human papillomavirus (HPV). The neoplasm can appear in a single form or spread over the entire surface of the skin. The growth cannot be left without attention and proper treatment, because from a benign foreign body, it can degenerate into oncology. It is advisable to remove the papilloma; for this, a surgical method or a wart patch is used.
The method of treatment will depend on the type of wart and its location. The product is suitable for removing tumors on the hands and soles of the feet (ordinary, juvenile, plantar). It cannot be used for papillomas on the neck or mucous membranes (condylomas, acrochordas). Using this removal method will help improve the appearance and relieve pain.
Doctors' opinions on the most effective methods of treating warts and papillomas
The chief physician of Moscow City Hospital No. 62 describes his vision on this matter. Anatoly Nakhimovich Makhson Medical practice: more than 40 years.
“I have been treating people’s papillomas and warts for many years. I’m telling you as a doctor, papillomas along with HPV and warts can really lead to serious consequences if they are not dealt with.
The human papillomavirus is present in everyone on whose body there are papillomas, moles, warts and other pigmented formations. According to rough estimates, 80-85% of the planet's population has it. By themselves they are not dangerous. The problem is that an ordinary papilloma can become melanoma at any time.
These are incurable malignant tumors that kill a person in just a few months and from which there is no salvation.
Unfortunately, in Russia and the CIS countries, pharmaceutical corporations sell expensive medications that only relieve symptoms, thereby hooking people on one drug or another. That is why in these countries there is such a high percentage of cancer diseases and so many people suffer from “non-working” drugs.
The only drug that I want to recommend, and it is also officially recommended by WHO for the treatment of papillomas and warts, is Papinol. This drug is the only remedy that has an effect not only on external factors (that is, it removes papillomas), but also acts on the virus itself. At the moment, the manufacturer has managed not only to create a highly effective product, but also to make it accessible to everyone. In addition, within the framework of the federal program, every resident of the Russian Federation and the CIS can receive it for 149 rubles.”

Prevention measures
By taking a number of preventive measures, the manifestations of HPV-related tumors can be minimized. To do this you need:
- Mandatory personal hygiene. Do not use other people's manicure tools, shoes, or clothes.
- In case of mechanical damage to the epidermis, treat the wound with antiseptic agents.
- If the occupation poses a risk of injury, perform the work wearing protective gloves.
- Avoid wearing tight shoes made of synthetic materials.
- If possible, minimize contact with infected people. If this is your family member, treat household items and furniture with disinfectant 2 times a week.
But the main thing is, at the first signs of warts and papillomas, seek help from a dermatologist.
Salipod patch for warts
Wart patch is one of the most common skin growth removal products in its category. It contains salicylic acid, which has a cauterizing and softening effect on growths. The patch also contains sulfur, which penetrates the skin and has a strong antiviral effect.
Due to these two substances, any bacterial and fungal infections on the skin are eliminated and prevented. The advantages of Salipod also include its low cost - about 60-70 rubles in any pharmacy.
Instructions for using the patch are as follows:
- First, before applying the patch, you need to steam the skin at the location of the wart.
- Immediately after this, wipe the skin dry.
- We take a patch, stick it directly on the wart, leaving it for 1-2 days, depending on the size of the tumor. It is necessary to securely fix the patch so that it does not accidentally come off (you can secure it with a bandage).
- After a day or two, remove the patch and soak the skin in warm, but not hot, water.
- Remove the softened layer of skin from the wart with a pumice stone.
- To completely remove the growth, 3-4 repetitions of this procedure are usually required.
Important! For complex and long-standing tumors, longer treatment with the Salipod patch may be required, or the use of more serious medications or surgical removal.
Several reviews should be given about the use of the Salipod patch to remove warts:
Alla, 41 years old : Throughout my life, warts have constantly formed on my hands. I burned them with celandine, garlic, vinegar, and it was easy to get rid of them. As I approached 40, folk remedies stopped helping, so I had to go to the pharmacy, where they recommended the Salipod patch. I managed to remove the newly formed growths in 2-3 procedures (plaster + steaming + pumice stone). With old warts I had to suffer longer (about a month).
Gennady, 49 years old : I have never had warts, but somehow a strange persistent callus appeared on my foot. On the doctor's advice, I went to a dermatologist. She said that it was a common plantar wart that could be removed with the Salipod patch. The first time the patch really helped - the wart disappeared, but after 3 months the same wart appeared on the other leg, but now the patch didn’t help, so I had to use other means.
Indications for use
The adhesive plaster is used for external use to eliminate the following dermatological neoplasms:
- spine;
- dry callus;
- warts;
- corns.
In addition to removing skin growths, Salipod can be glued over dense bumps that form on the joints of the big toes during prolonged walking in heels or tight shoes. In addition, such a need arises in people whose profession involves standing work, and in patients with an excessive concentration of calcium salts in the body.
Salicylic patch for warts
Wart patch with salicylic acid is an effective and affordable remedy that is usually used to remove plantar growths and corns. The following types of patches are produced containing salicylic acid: Salipod, Ultra Profi, Mediplast, Urgo.
The principle of using such patches is approximately the same: before application, you need to soften the skin, wipe dry, apply the patch, hold for a certain time (in accordance with the instructions), then remove and remove the keratinized skin with a pumice stone.
Before using patches containing salicylic acid, it is recommended to consult a dermatologist, because salicylic acid does not combine well with a number of medications, so its use is limited during treatment for a number of other diseases.
Urgo Coricide
All products containing salicylic acid are contraindicated for children. In order to remove a foreign body of papillomavirus origin, Urgo Koritsid is suitable. Keratolytic patch for children has the following effects:
- Softens the surface of the wart and gradually dissolves rough tissue, promoting its further peeling.
- Serves as a protective agent for the pathological area from friction.
- It prevents the surface of the growth from drying out, maintaining the necessary humidity, and protects against microcracks.
- Promotes rapid regeneration of damaged tissues.
- Inhibits the proliferation of bacteria and stops the inflammatory process.
Before using Urgo Coricide, it is advisable to consult a doctor.
be careful
The presence of papillomas, warts, condylomas, moles and spines on the body is the first sign of malignant melanoma!
We hasten to warn you that most medications “treat” warts, papillomas, moles, etc. - this is a complete deception of marketers who make hundreds of percentage points on drugs whose effectiveness is zero. They do not cure the disease, but only mask the symptoms.
The pharmacy mafia makes huge money by deceiving sick people.
But what to do? How to treat if there is deception everywhere? Doctor of Medical Sciences Anatoly Makhson conducted his own investigation and found a way out of this situation. In this article, the Doctor also told how to 100% protect yourself from melanoma, for only 149 rubles! Read the article in the official source via the link.
Contraindications and precautions
There are the following contraindications to the use of Salipod:
- individual intolerance to the structural substances of the drug;
- severe irritation or thinning of the skin;
- predisposition to the development of allergies and anaphylactic reactions;
- the presence of age spots, moles in the area where the patch is applied;
- renal failure;
- children under 10 years old;
- pregnant and lactating women;
- dermatological diseases and skin damage: psoriasis, pustules, pyoderma, cracks, acne;
- bursting callus with fluid escaping.
Do not attach the adhesive plaster to healthy areas of the skin. Salicylic acid can corrode and damage normal epithelium. It is not recommended to reuse the product or after the expiration date. The dermatotropic drug is intended for external use only. It is necessary to store the packaging in a place that is difficult for children to reach. Also find out how a spine appears on the hand, diagnosis and treatment of the disease.
Important!
If the skin under the adhesive plaster is inflamed, pain or burning is felt, you must immediately remove Salipod from the skin and seek medical help. Similar actions should be taken if allergies, red spots, rashes and itching appear.
Reviews of Chinese wart patch
The Chinese patch for warts Compid is available in pharmacies in a wide variety of types: for wet, dry calluses of different sizes, for corns. This allows you to choose the most suitable option based on the type of callus, its location and size.
Here are some reviews about the Compid patch:
Stanislav, 21 years old : I struggled with a plantar wart for a long time, but no folk remedies (garlic, vinegar, celandine) helped, so I went to a local clinic, where a dermatologist advised me to use the Compid patch. The patch attached well to the leg, immediately numbed the area, so walking did not hurt as usual. After removal, the skin was moisturized and the top layer was removed according to the instructions. In about 1 week the wart was removed.
Tatyana, 29 years old : Compide has long been the best remedy for warts for me. It works great on various types of warts that have recently appeared. With its help, I removed growths not only from myself, but also from a 10-year-old child.
Suda Epitact pads
This is a thin patch from a German manufacturer, 10 by 10 cm. The composition includes thuja extract - an effective remedy for removing warts, thorns and papillomas.
Suitable for treating growths in children, since the patch is hypoallergenic and does not cause irritation or swelling of the skin.
Method of application: a pad of the required size is cut out of the patch, which is glued to the wart. Change once every 3 days until the formation is completely removed.
Cost - from 2500 rubles.
What to do after 24 hours?
If the wart was small, say, the size of a match head, most likely that’s all. We are just waiting for recovery, periodically exfoliating the surface.
But if it’s like in the review, we do the following. Using scissors or tweezers, we remove the dead skin above the papilloma, reaching the “normal” level, if you can call it that. If we see that there, underneath, there is something similar to vertical columns - burst capillaries, etc. - then we repeat everything again: glue it for 48 hours, wait 24 hours, check it. And so on in a circle.
In general, I used 4 patches: the first one - since I didn’t overload the skin, the powder didn’t penetrate deep enough; the second is a seemingly normal application; the third - since there were clearly traces of “living” papillomas; and the fourth - to consolidate the result. I can say that you need to observe the result even after the “last” peel off of the patch. If in place of the papilloma there is something that looks like columns (as opposed to the horizontal placement of layers of epithelium), then you need to glue it again for 48 hours.
Result
It passed, of course, earlier, but only now there are absolutely no traces left on the skin.

conclusions
The patch works if you apply it thoroughly. The “set it and forget it” magic doesn’t work here. But the skin is restored completely, no traces, scars or cicatrices remain.
