In today's society, people are paying more and more attention to their health. However, with the continuous improvement of the understanding of *** lesions, many patients have difficulties in the judgment of some diseases, especially for pseudogenital warts. Then, how to distinguish pseudocondyloma is particularly important.
First of all, we need to understand what pseudocondyloma is. Genital warts, also known as villous warts, papillomas, etc., are a common benign lesion. It mainly occurs in women, cervix, and male urethra. In appearance, pseudocondyloma appear as villous, caviar, or papillae-shaped small warts, generally 1-2 mm in diameter, and pale red or white in color.
Although pseudocondyloma has little health impact, many patients are easily confused with sexually transmitted diseases such as genital warts due to their lack of awareness, resulting in panic and low self-esteem. To help you better distinguish between pseudocondyloma and pseudocondyloma, here are a few ways to do it:
1.Observe the appearance. Genital warts usually appear as cauliflower-shaped, cockscomb-shaped, or papillary-shaped warts with a bumpy surface and a noticeable wetting sensation. On the other hand, pseudogenital warts appear as small warts that are villous, caviar, or papillae, which are relatively smooth and do not feel wet.
2.Examine the growth site. Genital warts usually grow in moist and friction-rich parts, such as **, cervix, urethral meatus, **, etc. Pseudocondyloma mostly grows in drier parts, such as vestibule, male, etc.
3.Know how it spreads. Genital warts are a sexually transmitted disease that is mainly spread through unclean sex. Genital warts, on the other hand, are not sexually transmitted diseases, and their transmission routes are not clear, which may be related to factors such as dampness, friction, and hormone levels in the area.
4.White acetate test. It's a simple and easy way to do it. Apply 3% to 5% acetic acid to the suspicious lesion, if the warts turn white, it may be genital warts; If it does not turn white, it may be pseudocondyloma. However, it is important to note that the white acetate test is not absolutely reliable, and sometimes genital warts may also turn white.
5.Pathological examination. This is the most accurate method. Pathological biopsy of suspicious lesion tissue can confirm the diagnosis of genital warts or pseudocondyloma.
In conclusion, the key to distinguishing pseudocondyloma is to understand its characteristics and make an accurate judgment based on clinical manifestations and ancillary examinations. During this process, patients should remain calm and not overly worried, while seeking the help of a medical professional in order to get a timely and accurate diagnosis and**.
