Papillomas
Reviewed by the medical team of El Doctor Editorial policy
Papillomas are benign growths of the skin or mucous membranes that take the form of small bumps or warts. Many are related to the human papillomavirus, though not all.
Where they appear: they can arise on the skin, the mouth, the anal or genital region, and other surfaces, with a variable appearance depending on their location.
Common symptoms: they are usually painless, but depending on the site they can cause discomfort, mild bleeding, or cosmetic concern.
Who treats them? The approach depends on their location: the general practitioner can provide initial guidance, the general surgeon assesses removal when necessary, and the proctologist treats those in the anal area. If you notice a new growth or one that changes in appearance, the prudent thing is to have a professional examine it and advise you on the steps to follow.
