For small and dense lesions, a circle electrode can be used to contact the surface of the wart. The degree is that the epidermis at the base of the wart solidifies and turns white. The foot switch should be opened and closed in 1 to 2 seconds, so as to completely solidify the lesion tissue and protect normal tissue to the maximum extent to avoid postoperative complications such as scar formation.

      6. Genital warts are mostly infected due to sexual contact and are easily combined with other sexual transmissions disease . If possible, the secretions can be checked for gonorrhea, mycoplasma, and chlamydia. Such cases were found in this group. Vaginitis 10 cases. If accompanied by other inflammations, local abnormal secretions may increase, which may promote the proliferation of warts. Therefore, drugs should be used to actively treat complications during surgical treatment. according to female Features: It is best to perform the surgery after menstruation is clear.
