Options For Treating Periungual Warts

Injections Of Antigens

An injection of antigens is a helpful treatment option for many of these warts. Antigens are toxins used to produce an immune response from the body. The injection is designed to help the body fight the human papillomavirus, them ain cause of all kinds of warts, with an immune response. This does not work for everyone, but it is highly effective in many patients who try this method of treatment. The response it causes when it is injected into the periungual wart can cause the body to start attacking the virus to kill it. The faster it works to kill the virus, the faster periungual warts will go away. However, the body might not provide the correct response, and it might not work forever and individuals may still develop periungual warts over the years.
