Plantar warts

Introduction Verrucaplantaris is a common wart that occurs at the base of the foot. It is a neoplasm that occurs at the sole of the foot. It is caused by a viral infection and can be infected by tiny lesions of the skin itself, and thus more and more. Because the soles of the feet are stressed every day, coupled with the friction of the shoes, it is very easy to inoculate the infection itself; and because the friction surface has a thick cuticle, it is difficult to treat and it is difficult to cure. basic knowledge The proportion of illness: 0.15% Susceptible people: no specific population Infection mode: self-infection Complications: Common

Cause

Viral infection (63%):

It is caused by a viral infection and can be infected by tiny lesions of the skin itself, and thus more and more. Caused by HPV-1.3.4 virus.

Environmental factors (32%):

Because the soles of the feet are stressed every day, coupled with the friction of the shoes, it is very easy to vaccinate themselves. And because the friction surface has a thick layer of stratum corneum, it is related to compression, friction, trauma, and sweating.

Prevention

symptoms common symptoms foot swelling tenderness keratin thickening keratinization

Due to the compression of the soles of the feet, the surface of the skin forms a pale yellow striate horny layer, which can be seen as scattered small black spots, which are caused by rupture of the nipple vessels. It occurs in the ankles, heels, compression between the ankles, single or multiple, The number of sizes is variable, there is a feeling of tenderness, often around a large sputum, there are scattered small satellite scorpions, several scorpions gather and fuse to form large horny pieces, called "mosaic warts", the course of disease Chronic, can subside on their own, and children are more likely to dissipate than adults.

1. There is obvious tenderness and pain;

2. The lesion is a round papillary keratinous hyperplasia, surrounded by a thickened horny ring, the surface often scattered in small black spots, the surface of the cuticle is removed, and the loose horny soft core is visible;

3. Occurs in the heel, the humeral head or the compression between the ankles.

Awkward inspection

Heel, humeral head or intercondylar lesions can be merged into a horny piece of rash. Features: small shiny pimples, mung bean size, rough keratinized surface, grayish yellow or dirty gray, clear surrounding, thickened horny ring For example, if a scalpel is used to scrape the surface horny surface, bleeding spots may be seen on the surface, and sometimes there is a trace of blood extravasation on the surface of the sputum, and a small black spot appears after solidification.
