What are the harmful consequences of genital warts? Four major hazards to diagnose genital warts should be noted

In recent years, people's living standards have improved. Many people do not pay attention to their lifestyle, leading to sexually transmitted diseases. Genital warts are a common sexually transmitted disease. In recent years, the incidence rate of the disease is on the rise. This is because people's living conditions are getting better and more people are coming into contact, and the likelihood of contracting the disease is also increasing. Although condyloma acuminatum is not harmful to sexually transmitted diseases such as AIDS and syphilis, its harm should not be underestimated. Let's take a look.

What are the harmful consequences of genital warts

Hazard 1: Strong infectivity. Research on sexual transmission can confirm that over 40% of patients' spouses also suffer from genital warts, while 20% -30% of patients have other sexually transmitted diseases. This indicates that genital warts are mainly transmitted through sexual relations, but a considerable number of patients' spouses or sexual partners do not have skin damage, which may be related to the immune status of the infected person. The one-time infection rate of patients with genital warts is as high as 60%, which is prone to occur in areas prone to sexual damage. But not all clinical contacts have genital warts, which may be related to the number of viruses and the duration of the patient's illness.

Hazard 2: easy recurrence. Generally speaking, the recurrence of genital warts usually occurs within 3 months after the treatment of genital warts. As time goes on, the patient's infectivity decreases and the likelihood of recurrence also decreases. Even if clinically cured, patients will not relapse after 6 months of treatment. If there is no recurrence after one year of treatment, the likelihood of recurrence and infection in the future is very low. Therefore, the third month after treatment is a "barrier", during which patients should go to the hospital at any time to check their condition, use medication reasonably, and not blindly change medication.

Hazard three, difficult to cure. The pathogen of genital warts is the papillomavirus. They usually do not enter the bloodstream. After entering the human body, they can lurk at the base of the epidermis and then replicate into the nucleus with the epidermis, causing cell division and forming clinical skin lesions. After treatment, some patients may experience recurrent episodes, which may be related to subclinical infections, latent infections, or reinfection. After multiple treatments, most patients can control recurrence, while a few patients with long-term viral infections can randomly improve their immune status and suppress or even disappear.

Hazard 4. Infertility affects family harmony. After complete cure of genital warts, they are non infectious and do not affect pregnancy and delivery. After formal treatment, if the symptoms disappear and do not recur after one year, marriage and childbirth can be considered.
