Acute warts (HPV) diagnosis, treatment, monitoring according to the type of virus
It is an infection with some types of human papillomavirus (HPV) and causes warts that are localized and spread in areas of the body with increased humidity, on the mucous membranes, while their form may vary in each patient. Generally the lesions present as papules with a pinkish or whitish tinge, with a smooth or warty surface. The treatment is often long-term and the methods that are mainly applied are cryotherapy, electrocautery, laser and scraping as well as locally the use of creams, solutions or gels. It should be noted that some types of warts can lead to the appearance of cancer with the most frequent focus on the cervix for the Prevention of which gynecological examination, Colposcopy and Pap smear is recommended, even when there are no obvious lesions. Some types of HPV can cause cancer in the oropharynx, anus, penis. Before any treatment we apply the identification of the HPV type in order to have the corresponding monitoring.
Genital Herpes
Genital Herpes
It is an infection with the herpes simplex virus and causes the development of blisters and ulcers in the genital area. The virus is transmitted by direct contact with the lesions and through secretions . The clinical picture of the disease during the primary manifestation consists of general symptoms such as fever, malaise and myalgias and local symptoms such as pain, itching, dysuric complaints, discharge from the lesion area with local bubbles and ulcerations as well as lymphadenopathy in the groin. During relapses of the disease the symptoms are milder usually only locally, while many times the relapse mainly in women is not perceived by the patient. The diagnosis of the disease is made by immediate preparation if there are still bubbles or a month later by hematological examination. Antiviral therapy is predominantly systemic and is recommended both in the primary manifestation of the disease and in relapses.
Gonococcal Infection
Gonococcal Infection
It is an infection of the bacterium Neisseria gonorrhea. In 90% of cases it appears as an acute purulent discharge but can also remain asymptomatic. The bacterium is transmitted by sexual contact (vaginal, anal or oral), has an incubation time of 2-14 days and the main symptoms of the disease are the abundant purulent discharge from the site where the infection took place, dysuric complaints and peripheral in the wider area discomfort. Complications of the disease are rare, they are divided into local (lymphangitis, orchitis) and peripheral (diffuse gonococcal infection, septic arthritis, septic dermatitis). The diagnosis is made by laboratory tests and mainly by cultivating a sample from the area of purulent exudate. Appropriate antibiotic treatment is recommended for the treatment and radical management of the infection.
Non-Gonococcal Infection
Non-Gonococcal Infection
It is an infection not caused by the N bacterium.gonorrhoea but from various other microorganisms with Main in terms of frequency : Clamydia trachomatis, Mycoplasma genitalium, trichomonads of the vagina, anaerobic microbes. The incubation period of the disease is 10-30 days after intercourse (vaginal, anal or oral). The clinical picture is similar to the picture of gonococcal infection (discharge from the affected area, dysuric complaints and periuritic discomfort), while quite often symptoms may not be reported. The diagnosis of the disease and the identification of the responsible microbe is done by culturing the exudate. Antibiotic treatment is generally recommended for the treatment of non-gonococcal infection.
