What are the causes of recurrent cervical warts?

The recurrence of cervical warts can be said to be one of the most troublesome problems for patients. Generally speaking, if the cervical warts are treated and the warts visible to the naked eye are eliminated, and new wart tissue reappears within six months to one year, it can be regarded as a recurrence. So what are the causes of the recurrence of cervical warts? Let's listen to the experts' opinions below.

1. Improper treatment methods

Although cervical warts appear as skin lesions, the root cause of the disease is inside the body. Single drug treatment can easily lead to drug resistance and is not easy to cure. When performing physical treatments such as laser, freezing, and electrocautery, the operating doctors lack patience, care, and experience, and are prone to miss small warts growing in hidden parts, leaving hidden dangers for recurrence.

2. The patient has poor physical condition and low immune function

Patients have underlying diseases such as diabetes and hepatitis, have poor physical constitutions, are prone to colds and have low immunity. If the first treatment is not thorough and the patient himself does not cooperate, the disease is likely to relapse.

3. Genital warts are complicated

Some patients with cervical warts have large and deep-rooted warts, which may even fuse into pieces and spread to each other, making it difficult to completely eliminate them through clinical treatment. Latent infection with human papillomavirus can cause recurrence of cervical warts. The presence and reactivation of subclinical infection are also related to the recurrence of the disease.

4. Cross infection between husband and wife

If one spouse's cervical warts have been cured and the other is in a subclinical or latent infection state, cross infection may occur after close contact. Therefore, patients with cervical warts are especially reminded not to have sexual intercourse before they are completely cured, and their sexual partners should also be required to participate in the treatment.

The above is an introduction to the main causes of recurrent cervical warts. I hope it will be helpful to everyone. As a very common disease, everyone should pay attention to the treatment of the disease. I wish all patients a speedy recovery!
