Can vinegar treat condyloma acuminatum?

A woman's vagina should maintain an absolute acid-base balance. Only an acid-base balance can prevent viral invasion. Genital warts are a gynecological disease caused by papillomavirus. Women with genital warts will feel severe itching around the vagina. During the treatment of genital warts, doctors will not only provide laser treatment to patients, but also appropriately assist with acetic acid treatment. But if it is edible vinegar at home, will it have a therapeutic effect on genital warts?

The acetic acid concentration used in medical testing for genital warts is 5%, but the acetic acid concentration we consume at home is less than 1%, so this statement is nonsense. Even if we use acetic acid for medical treatment, it is only effective in the subclinical infection period and the explicit infection period. No symptoms can be seen in the subclinical infection period, but we can detect viral infection through tests. If cauliflower-like growths have appeared and are gradually increasing, it means that we have entered the explicit infection period, which can be confirmed by naked eye observation. The subclinical infection is actually in the incubation period. If there are no clinical symptoms of viral infection, we can only confirm the diagnosis through viral nucleic acid testing.

When treating genital warts, we can consider drug treatment. Traditional Chinese medicine treatment is mainly based on Qingyousan, which mainly adopts Chinese medicine formulas of clearing heat and dampness to help people eliminate dampness in the body. On the other hand, it can also help people regulate qi and blood throughout the body, which can enhance immune function and avoid recurrence of the disease. Some drugs may have obvious toxic side effects, and the symptoms are prone to recurrence. If the area is small, we can use simple resection. If the area is large, special surgical treatment measures will be needed.

Acetic acid used in medicine can make the warts of genital warts fall off, but this is only limited to the incubation period. If the condition is already very serious, the treatment effect of this method is not particularly significant. The vinegar we use at home has no therapeutic effect because of its low concentration. Therefore, everyone must not believe in rumors and take some methods for treatment.
