Papilloma castor oil: properties and application rules
Various means can be used to cleanse the skin from papillomas. One of them is castor oil. This article will tell you more about the properties and rules for the use of this tool.
Operating principle
Papillomas are formations that appear on different areas of the skin. The appearance of such skin formations may be different. However, most often the papillomas on the skin look like small skin growths with a thick base. The color of such elements may vary from pale pink to brown. In appearance, these skin lesions resemble a rooster's comb or cauliflower.
The cause of the appearance on the skin of such formations is papilloma virus infection. This disease is caused by human papillomavirus (HPV). Microbiologists secrete several different types of such microorganisms. Viruses of this type can damage not only the skin, but also the mucous membranes.
Papillomas are not only an aesthetic problem. These formations can be injured if they are located on open skin areas. When papilloma damage occurs, bleeding occurs (in some cases, quite heavy). Also, the trauma of such an element can lead to the introduction of a secondary infection. That is why the treatment of these formations cannot be neglected.
If the papillomas on the skin appear, then in this case it is required to conduct therapy.
To cleanse the skin from papillomas, you can use castor oil. This product can be purchased at any pharmacy. This tool is inexpensive, so they can even be treated by people who have a limited financial budget.
In high-quality castor oil contains only components useful for the body. As part of this product there is a whole complex of various fatty components. So, it contains oleic, linoleic and ricinoleic acids. The special chemical composition of this product contributes to the fact that it is absorbed into the skin rather slowly.
The feature of castor oil in the treatment of papillomas is also that it is able to penetrate deeply into the layers of the skin. All biologically active components contained in this product directly reach the base of papilloma. This effect contributes to the fact that the element formed on the skin begins to gradually dry from the very base. At the same time, the substances contained in this product help accelerate cellular regeneration.
This oil product also has a negative effect on human papilloma viruses. The skin is cleared gradually. Sufficient time is required for the papillomas to disappear. First, the skin formation dries out a little. This leads, as a rule, to a change in its color. So, the papilloma starts to turn pale, and its color becomes less saturated. After several treatments, the papilloma gradually dries out and then disappears.
Benefit and harm
Castor oil helps not only against papillomas. This oily product has a complex effect on the skin. So, this component contributes to:
- accelerate the healing of damaged skin;
- nutrition and saturation of the skin with vitamins;
- decrease the intensity of pigmentation;
- rejuvenation of the skin.
The composition of castor oil contains many fatty components. Each of them has a certain effect on the human body. For example, linoleic acid is necessary to accelerate cellular regeneration. Ricinoleic acid helps to reduce the inflammation that occurs due to the damage of viruses by organisms.
Castor oil for the treatment of papillomas should be applied carefully. This product is rich in herbal ingredients that have a strong effect on the body. Before treating a large area of skin on which papillomas are located, you should try to apply an oily product on one papilloma. After this treatment, there should be no severe itching, redness or swelling. If such symptoms appear, they may be due to an allergic pathology.
Allergy to castor oil - a contraindication to the treatment of papillomas with this product. Also, one should not treat such skin formations even if there is an individual intolerance to castor oil. It is not necessary to treat pregnant and lactating mothers. Therapy in this case is better to postpone for a time after the end of lactation. Inflammatory skin diseases - another contraindication for the treatment of papillomas on the skin.
If a person has such pathologies, then it is better to treat skin formations caused by human papillomavirus, together with a doctor.
In the presence of open skin lesions also should not be treated with castor oil. This should be done when the wound heals. During treatment, papillomas should not sunbathe or be in the sun for a long time. Also during such home therapy there is no need to use scrubs or cosmetic products that contain any aggressive chemical additives.
Preparation of oil solution
For the treatment of skin lesions caused by HPV, you can use not only castor oil. This product is quite concentrated. Frequent treatment of papillomas with this tool can lead to the appearance of adverse events. If, however, castor oil is mixed with other oil products, then the desired result can also be achieved, but at the same time the risk of developing possible complications of such home treatment can be reduced.
Castor oil can be mixed with other oils ("base"). For example, olive or sunflower oil can be used to dilute the castor oil. At the same time, oil should be mixed in a 1: 2 ratio. In this case, the base oil should be twice as large. In this way it is better to dilute castor oil to people who have increased skin sensitivity.
Traditional medicine specialists recommend using various products based on castor oil and other components for the treatment of papillomas. Such complex means help to achieve the best result. For example, a mixture of castor oil and soda can be used for papilloma therapy. Both of these components have a negative effect on human papillomaviruses, which leads to the purification of the skin.
To prepare an effective oil solution, mix the castor oil and regular baking soda. In this case, both ingredients should be taken in a 1: 1 ratio. The prepared oil-soda solution should be used for treating papillomas three times a day. You can mix castor oil with various herbal ingredients. So, for cleansing the skin, you can use dry chamomile flowers. So, chopped vegetable raw materials in the amount of 2.5 tbsp. l You need to pour 100 ml of castor oil and leave to infuse. This requires only a couple of hours.
After this time, the therapeutic mixture can be used. In this oil solution, you need to moisten a cotton pad and treat them to the skin area where the papillomas are located. If a single skin formation is present on the skin, then it is better to treat it with a cotton swab. To cleanse the skin, you can use another tool. For its preparation should be mixed two oils - castor and tea tree. Treat this oil solution should be directly skin rashes.
It is better to carry out such treatment at least twice a day.
Rules of the procedure
Treatment of papillomas and warts at home should be carried out very carefully. The method of application of the oil product is quite simple. Before you apply castor oil to the skin, the skin should be washed and steamed well.Such pre-treatment will help ensure that the biologically active components contained in castor oil will be easier to penetrate the skin.
Before applying the oil product on the skin it is better to warm up a little. For this you can use a water bath. Excessively warm oil is not necessary. This may lead to a change in its physical properties. To warm up the skin before applying castor oil, you need to put a warm compress on it. After that, the skin can already be applied and the oil product. Do it better with a cotton swab. For the treatment of papilloma is quite a small amount of oil product.
If there are several papillomas on the skin and they are located on the legs or abdomen, then it is more convenient to treat the skin rashes with a cotton disc. To do this, apply a small amount of oil product to the disk, and then gently attach it to the area of skin where papillomas “grow”.
Derive skin formations can be not only on the hands, stomach or face, but also in intimate places. Removal of papillomas in such areas is a rather complicated process. In some people, ingestion of castor oil on the mucous membranes can cause severe irritation, redness and severe itching. Thus, the treatment of papillomas in this way should be abandoned in the presence of inflammatory diseases of the external genital organs.
Papillomas can also be localized on the face. In some cases, these skin rashes appear even around the eyes. With this arrangement, care must be taken when applying oil blends.
It is very important to apply castor oil to skin rashes with a cotton swab so that this tool does not get into the eyes. If the oily product gets into the eyes as a result of careless application, then this may trigger the development of a strong conjunctivitis.
Castor oil can be used for therapeutic compresses. So, on the skin area covered with papillomas, you should put a small piece of cotton wool or a bandage moistened with castor oil or an oil mixture made on its basis. For better fixation, it is better to fix the compress with adhesive tape. Keep such a medical compress to the skin for 3.5-4 hours. It should be noted that it is possible to carry out treatment in this way only with good tolerability of castor oil.
To achieve the result, papillomas should be treated with castor oil three times a day. The course of treatment is usually designed for 1-1.5 months. During this time, the papillomas on the background of treatment should decrease in size, and some even completely disappear. If, against the background of such therapy, there will be no improvement, then in this case, the use of castor oil should be abandoned and some alternative method of treatment should be chosen.
Reviews and advice of doctors
Opinions of people who have resorted to cleansing the skin from papillomas with castor oil are very different. Some say that this method has helped them, while others say that it does not work. Doctors say that papillomas should be treated comprehensively. Applying castor oil to cleanse the skin alone may not be enough. This method can only lead to a temporary deliverance of the skin from papillomas. However, after some time, such formations may appear again.
Dermatologists say that papilloma virus infection should be treated in a complex. Thus, not only external means are used for therapy, but also drugs that affect the functioning of internal organs. In the complex treatment are used as antiviral drugs, and means of stimulating the immune system. Doctors say that home therapy with papillomas with castor oil quite often remains unsuccessful. In order not only to clear the skin of such formations, but also to treat a papilloma virus infection, a mandatory consultation of a specialist is required.
