Side effects and complications during cryodestruction of papillomas

Reviews
Veronica, 41 years old I did everything I could with my thorn on my palm - I tried to get it out myself, I tried to remove it with celandine juice, nothing helped. Based on feedback from friends, I tried Cryopharm aerosol and was satisfied. It is expensive, but it helps effectively. I froze my spine with it in one go, and after two weeks all that was left of it was a small white speck.
Georgiy, 30 years old I have flat feet, so my legs are constantly under pressure, because of this I regularly develop spines on the soles of my feet. I already know how to remove them simply and effectively - I buy Cryopharm spray and freeze the warts that have barely begun to appear with it. It doesn’t hurt at all, it always helps – there have never been cases when the medicine didn’t work.
Valentina, 39 years old I have a small papilloma on my neck, which I am always afraid of tearing off when I wear high-neck sweaters. Based on a friend’s review, I bought Cryopharm spray to freeze papilloma. I liked the simplicity of the product - you apply it and wait 10 seconds, and after two weeks everything disappears, leaving no scars. Good medicine, I recommend it!
Anatoly, 28 years old I have a large mole on my back that doesn’t bother me in any way, but it looks unaesthetic. I decided to remove it, read reviews online, at first I wanted to buy Cryopharm spray, but my wife dissuaded me - she said it’s better to check if it’s malignant. I did so and did not regret it, it turned out to be a nevus that cannot be removed with cold, but only with surgery.
Contraindications to use of the product
In what cases is it not recommended to use the medicine “Cryopharma” for warts? The instructions for use also contain information on this matter. It contains the following list of contraindications.
1. The product should not be used by children under four years of age.
2. Before the procedure for eliminating dermatological formations of unknown origin, it is imperative to consult with an experienced specialist and exclude the presence of serious diseases.
3. It is strictly prohibited to treat mucous membranes, as well as those areas of the body where the skin is very delicate and sensitive (for example, the neck, genital and breast areas, lips, eyelids).
4. It is prohibited to use the drug for the procedure of freezing moles and age spots.

Causes of warts
The cause of warts is the human papillomavirus group. This virus can be transmitted through shared objects and through direct contact with another sick person. The incubation period for the development of infection is several months.
This virus multiplies very intensively in human skin. In this case, the growth of its upper layers occurs. Determining the carrier of the virus is not always easy, because he himself may not have warts.
In many ways, microtrauma to the skin also contributes to the appearance of warts. For example, very often warts on the feet appear after swimming in a public pool. Microtraumas also occur during shaving. Moreover, a person infects himself. Once one wart appears, it can spread throughout the body.
Factors that cause the appearance of warts include a decrease in immunity, which is currently observed in many residents of large cities. Constant stress contributes to this decline.
Disadvantages of the drug
What is the main disadvantage of the drug “Cryopharma” (for warts)? Price is the main disadvantage of the medicine. For a 35 ml spray you will have to pay about 750 rubles. The cost of the product is five times more than the price of the similar Feresol. This is partly due to the fact that the manufacturer of this drug is a large Japanese company.
It should also be noted that the cost of the medication is determined by its effectiveness. Moreover, it must be taken into account that freezing with this drug is possible not only in the clinic, but also at home.
Analogs
There are direct and indirect analogues of Cryopharm. The first substitutes are similar to the original drug in composition and principle of action, the second ones are similar in their effect on the wart (this may not necessarily be cold, but for example, exposure to acids or chemical alkalis). Popular analogues of the drug are:
- Solcoderm;
- Feresol;
- Papilleck;
- Stefalin;
- Super-Clandestine;
- Lapis pencil.
How the medication works
Once the applicator is pressed against the surface of the wart, it will immediately freeze it down to the base. In this case, the patient may feel a slight tingling or burning sensation in the skin. This indicates the beginning of the tissue freezing process. Also, at the site of contact with the spray, the skin may noticeably turn white.
After the freezing subsides, the skin color is restored. Next, the treated area begins to turn red. After a few days, a blister forms under the wart. Frozen skin on the surface of the neoplasm disappears after 10-14 days. At the same time, new and healthy skin forms under the blister.
It should be especially noted that one package of medication is designed to eliminate 12 warts.
Effect of freezing on papilloma
The refrigerant, which consists of a mixture of propane and dimethyl ether, when interacting with ambient air, is cooled to -57°C. This temperature is enough for the intracellular fluid in the tissues of the neoplasm to begin to turn into ice crystals, damaging the cell membranes and destroying their structure.
Under the influence of cold, the power and blood supply to the papilloma are also turned off. Therefore, after tissue thawing, cells lose their ability to recover and local necrosis begins to develop at the treatment site. Necrotic tissue is subsequently rejected by the human immune system and healthy skin is formed. To remove a small papilloma, one application of Cryopharma is enough, for medium and large ones - 2-3 times.
Skin care after the procedure
3-4 days after using Cryopharma, a blister can be found at the site of the former wart. This is a sign that the necrosis stage is beginning.
Important!
The most important rule at this stage is not to disturb the blister and touch it with your hands. It should be protected in every possible way from external factors, and if possible, covered with an adhesive plaster.
You need to be prepared for the fact that in the near future the blister will fall off and a crust will appear in its place. It also cannot be removed or scratched. You just need to wait and after 2-3 weeks it will disappear on its own, leaving no marks on the skin.
How to get rid of warts
A lot of people ask this question. Removing warts is not so easy. Many people use various folk remedies for this, but not everyone achieves a positive result.
The most correct way is to consult a doctor. The specialist must first determine whether a particular wart can be removed at all. It is imperative to consult a doctor if the wart is noticeably bothersome, if it begins to bleed and change shape, if it becomes painful or greatly enlarged. You need to know that the growth of a wart can also be stimulated by its damage. Consult a specialist if warts multiply quickly. Currently, there are several ways to remove warts. The choice depends on the type of wart and its location. It often happens that the removal of 1-2 warts leads to the unexpected disappearance of the rest.
Composition, release form and packaging
The drug is propane mixed with dimethyl ether, which creates a temperature at the outlet of the metal cylinder of -57 degrees. The mixture of liquefied gases is packaged in a metal cylinder with a capacity of 35 ml.
The volume of the balloon is designed for 12 procedures for freezing a convex formation. To accurately apply the freezing mixture to the damaged area of the skin, the packaging includes applicators with holders.
