Therefore, when signs of cervical warts are found, you should promptly check whether you have cervical warts according to the symptoms of cervical warts and go to a professional hospital for treatment. The following editor will introduce you to the symptoms and conventional treatment methods of cervical warts.

What are the symptoms of cervical warts?

Symptoms of cervical warts may include itching, burning pain, or pressure. Anal and rectal warts may cause pain and a feeling of tenesmus. Vaginal and cervical warts may cause pain during sexual intercourse and increased vaginal discharge.

After women are infected with cervical warts, local dampness, heat and chronic irritation often cause them to grow rapidly, forming symptoms of lesions of varying sizes, such as nipple-shaped, cauliflower-shaped, cockscomb-shaped or mushroom-like lesions. They are soft in nature and easily bleed when touched. The surface is white, dirty or red due to the infiltration of secretions. The root of the wart is narrow and often has a stalk. The surface is moist and often has exudate and erosion. Purulent secretions accumulate in the cracks between the skin lesions, which are prone to secondary bacterial infection and emit a foul odor.

So, how to treat cervical warts?

The treatment of cervical warts should generally adopt local destructive treatment, such as laser, freezing, electrocoagulation, etc. When pregnancy is complicated with cervical warts, local treatment should be carried out before 34 weeks of pregnancy to avoid complications such as cervical laceration during delivery; if pregnancy is full-term and complicated with large cervical warts, cesarean section should be performed.

Cryotherapy

This method uses the special effect that cervical warts cannot survive in low temperature environments. It uses advanced medical technology to keep the pathogenic site in a low temperature environment for a short period of time, causing the wart tissue to necrotize. Cervical warts are caused by viral infection, leading to benign hyperplasia of the skin and mucous membranes. It has a large number of small blood vessels and proliferates rapidly. The freezing method can freeze the cervical warts, forming a high degree of edema in the local tissue, thereby destroying the warts.

The biggest advantage of cryotherapy is that it does not leave any treatment marks, and the success rate is also high. During the treatment, except for local redness, swelling, pain and blister reaction, there are generally no obvious sequelae.

Laser therapy

This treatment method is more suitable for warts around the vulva and anus. Its characteristic is that it works quickly and the warts can fall off at the time of treatment. However, due to the over-concentration of the laser beam, laser treatment is only suitable for cervical warts with smaller warts. If the warts are larger, laser treatment is likely to recur. However, its success rate is still very high. >>> Related reading: What to do if you have cervical warts

Microwave therapy

The principle of this type of surgical treatment is to use the high-frequency vibration of microwaves to evaporate the water inside the warts, causing them to necrotize and fall off. The characteristics of microwave treatment are that the warts are completely destroyed and are not easy to recur, but the wound surface recovers slowly and is prone to secondary infection. Therefore, microwave treatment is particularly suitable for treating large, isolated, and scattered cervical warts.
