HPV: A Hidden Skin Assassin

HPV (human papillomavirus) is an "invisible killer" that threatens the health of women around the world. 99.9% of cervical cancers are related to persistent infection with high-risk types. However, HPV infection is not a disaster. More than 80% of women will be infected with HPV in their lifetime, but more than 90% can be cleared by their own immunity. This article will comprehensively analyze the symptoms, causes, prevention and treatment of HPV, and reveal how modern medical technology can help accurately fight the virus.

SHUYOU SURGICAL

1. Abnormal skin and mucous membranes

Genital warts: Common symptoms of low-risk HPV infection, manifested as cauliflower-like or papular growths on the vulva, anus and other parts.

Skin warts: Such as flat warts and common warts, which are mostly transmitted indirectly through contact with the infected person's clothing or skin.

2. Precancerous lesion signals

Persistent infection with high-risk HPV may cause abnormal cells in the cervix, vulva and other parts, manifested as bleeding during sexual intercourse, abnormal vaginal discharge or vulvar itching.

Key reminder: HPV infection ≠ cancer! Regular screening (such as TCT, HPV-DNA testing) can detect precancerous lesions early and intervene in time.

SHUYOU SURGICAL

Sexual Contact Transmission

The main mode of transmission, the risk is higher when there are more sexual partners and unprotected sex.

Indirect Contact Transmission

The virus may be transmitted by contact with the infected person's clothes, towels or shared bathtubs.

Vertical Transmission From Mother To Child

Infection through the birth canal during delivery, but the probability is low.

High-risk groups: People with low immunity, smokers, and women with multiple pregnancies are more likely to develop persistent infection.

SHUYOU SURGICAL

Level 1 protection: vaccination

Bivalent vaccine: for high-risk types 16 and 18, cost-effective, suitable for adolescents without sexual activity. Nine-valent vaccine: covers 7 high-risk types and 2 low-risk types, with a wider range of protection.

Level 2 protection: regular screening

Women over 21 years old are recommended to undergo TCT combined with HPV testing every 3 years to detect precancerous lesions early.

Level 3 protection: standardized treatment

After the diagnosis of precancerous lesions, surgery or physical therapy is used to block the progression.

SHUYOU SURGICAL

Conservative Treatment: Activate Immunity And Assist In Clearance

Immunomodulation: Enhance local immunity through drugs to help the body clear the virus autonomously.

Antiviral intervention: Inhibit viral replication and reduce the risk of lesion progression.

Physical Therapy: "precise Strike" With Electrosurgery

LEEP knife: Use high-frequency current to instantly vaporize or remove lesions, and stop bleeding at the same time, with small wounds and fast recovery.

Applicable Scenarios:

Cervical lesions: During cervical conization, the electrosurgery knife can accurately remove abnormal tissues and retain healthy cervical structures.

Skin warts: Directly vaporize the vegetation, and the postoperative scar is slight, especially suitable for areas with high requirements for appearance.

Core Advantages:

Precision: Directly treat the lesions to reduce damage to surrounding tissues.

Efficient hemostasis: Extremely low intraoperative bleeding, reducing the risk of infection.

Quick recovery: Most patients can heal 1-2 weeks after surgery without affecting their daily lives.
