What are the small meat balls and small meat bumps on the skin?There are 7 possibilities, the situation is good or bad
One day when she shot the mirror, Jun Jun found that a few small bumps suddenly grew around his neck, because very small, she didn’t pay special attention to it, thinking that she would disappear by herself in a few days. But I did not expect that after a few weeks, the small meat was not only disappeared, but also more and more.
Junjun checked the Internet and said that this kind of small meat was infected with HPV virus, which was generally transmitted through sex, and “experts” said that those who infected HPV would get cervical cancer in the future. After reading, Junjun was scared to rush to the hospital immediately.
Junjun is very puzzled. What exactly is these small meat? Do these small meat bumps represent her infection with HPV? If it is true, why did I get HPV vaccine myself?
First, what may be?
In fact, small meat balls and small meat bumps grow on the skin are not necessarily infected with HPV. It may also be in the following 7 cases. Some of them are generally no harmful, and some need attention.
· Generally no harmful type
1. Circles (blood moles)
If the small meat is not painful or itchy, it is a bit red, and it is slightly raised like a mole. This may be a capillary mole (also known as a blood mole).
The capillary mole is mainly caused by the capillaries or small arterial hyperplasia and continuous expansion of the skin surface. Circular moles are common in any part of the skin surface of the body, face, etc. after middle age.
Usually the physical health that does not cause the body’s health to cause any harm, but it should be noted that the capillary mole can easily rupture and bleed, so do not rub it or pull it hard every day. When the capillary mole is abnormal, bleeding, or divergent of surrounding blood vessels, go to the hospital for examination as soon as possible.
2. subcutaneous lipoma
If you have small meatballs on the skin, it does not hurt, it is soft and easy to move, and even find more than one. This situation is likely to be subcutaneous lipoma.
Subcutaneous lipoma is a very common benign tumor, mainly due to the excessive hyperplasia of mature fat cells. Lipoma has a single and multiple ones. Usually, the size is different, the growth is slow, and it is flat and rounded.
A single lipoma is generally large, commonly in the neck, shoulders, chest, abdomen, and waist. Multiple lipoma is generally small, with symmetrical distribution, which is more common in chest, back and thighs. Most lipoma does not pain, but if it is compressed to the nerve, there may be pain.
Lipomas are generally harmless, but if you first discover a new small lump under the skin, it is recommended to go to the hospital to find a doctor to check these unusual bumps to determine whether it is lipoma or other problems.
3. Skin
If the skin folds and relaxation areas such as the neck or underarms, the small meatballs are growing, and the appearance is irregular, and it will protrudes out like a pendant. This may be a skin.
The skin is also called soft tumor. It is known as a soft fiber tumor in medicine. It is a benign tumor. It consists of loose connective tissue, fibroblasts, and collagen fibers. Women after menstruation and pregnancy.
In addition to affecting the appearance, the skin is basically not harmful to health.
· Worthy of alert type
1. Capillary hemangioma
If the skin grows bright red or purple -red plaques, the border is clear, and the skin is flat or slightly bulging. This may be capillary hemangioma.
Capillance hemangioma is a congenital benign tumor that occurs in infants and young children, mainly because the baby’s cells that generate blood vessels during the mother development of the baby are formed by the blood vessels in the skin or mucous membrane.
Most capillary hemangioma grows rapidly, and only a few can disappear by themselves. Therefore, in order not to affect the appearance of the child, it is recommended to discover early treatment early.
2. Symatic gland cyst (powder tumor)
If a small meat bag grows on the skin, it is not painful or itchy, and sometimes there is a small black head on the surface, which can squeeze out the smelling secretions. This may be the “powder tumor” we often call, which is the sebaceous gland cyst.
Waste gland cysts are a relatively common benign surface mass of skin, mainly caused by dust and bacterial infections, which are caused by obstruction of the sebaceous gland excretion. There will also be red swelling, tenderness, purulent, or evil odor. Most of the sebaceous gland cysts occur during adults, most of which are benign, grow slowly and do not have pain. They are mostly on the scalp and face.
When long skin cysts, you must not squeeze it like acne, because as long as the cyst wall is still there, the oil will continue to be formed, and it will squeeze or break the cysts by itself, which will not only cause skin scars, but also greatly increase The risk of infection affects deeper skin, and may even cause major bleeding. Generally small sebaceous gland cysts, if no pus is infected, can not be treated, pay attention to daily protection. If the sebaceous gland cysts are gradually increased, it is recommended to go to the hospital for surgery to completely remove the cysts and not leave the cyst wall, otherwise it will be very easy to recur.
3. Silic warts
If there is a sharp silk protrusion on the surface of the small meat, it may be a silk wart.
Silk warts are benign skin horsesy caused by human papilloma virus (HPV) infection. They occur in neck, scalp, eyelids and other parts. People with low immunity are more likely to be infected. Silk warts are contagious and can be transmitted from a part of the body to other parts. They may also be transmitted to others. Therefore, if the silk wart is grown, do not drag or rub it with your hands to avoid damage and expand its infection. Although silk -shaped warts are caused by HPV virus infected, this virus is low -risk, which is different from high -risk HPV virus that causes cervical cancer, so don’t worry too much. However, due to the contagious silk warts, in order to avoid more and more lesions or infected with others, it is recommended to actively treat it.
4. melanoma
If the mole on the skin suddenly becomes larger, the color is deeper, or the blood breaks are abnormal, you must pay attention to it may be melanoma.
Melanoma is a kind of skin malignant tumor, mainly because the body melanocytes occur cancer. Most melanoma is changed from congenital or acquired pigment moles. It can grow in any part of the skin. It is more common in hands and feet, and it will also appear on the eyes, oral, gastrointestinal, respiratory tract and reproductive organs.
Compared with other skin cancer, melanoma develops rapidly, it is easy to metastasis, and the mortality rate is higher. If the melanoma is found in the early stage and the regular treatment is received, the prognosis is good, and the 5 -year survival rate can be as high as more than 90%; but if the melanoma in the late stage, the prognosis is extremely poor, and the 5 -year survival rate is less than 10%.
Therefore, we should pay attention to daily color mole and melanoma.
In terms of symmetry, ordinary pigment moles are usually symmetrical on both sides, while malignant melanoma is mostly irregular and asymmetry on both sides.
On the edge, the edges of ordinary pigment moles are smooth, and the boundary of the skin is clear, while melanoma is mostly uneven and changes in sawtoles.
In terms of color, most common pigment moles are black, brown and tan, while melanoma is often mixed with a variety of colors based on the love of pigment mole, or the color suddenly deepen, black, blue or start in a short period of time. fade.
In terms of diameter, ordinary pigment moles are generally less than 5 mm, while melanin moles are mostly more than 6 mm.
In terms of characteristics, pigment moles will not change, nor will they have physical discomfort, and melanin moles will increase rapidly in a short time, and the surrounding skin will bleed, ulcers, itching, pain, difficulty healing, or scabs and other inflammation. reaction.
It is difficult for most people to distinguish between bad color moles and early malignant melanoma by the naked eye. Therefore, once they are suspected of the lesion, they should go to the hospital for a pathological diagnosis.
Second, some small bumps may be caused by HPV
HPV has more than 100 subtypes. In addition to inducing cervical cancer, it can also infect the skin and can cause “dumplings”. In addition to the above -mentioned silk warts, there are also ordinary warts, flat warts, plantar warts, and genital warts. The forms of these tweezers will be different due to different subtypes and parts of the virus infection.
Ordinary warts are generally a hemispherical size of soybeans, which are hard, rough on the surface, and even stab. Usually, the number of fingers, palms, and backs can be ranged from one to ten grains, and sometimes several grains are connected together.
Flat warts look like flat pimples or elderly spots, slightly higher than the skin surface, only millet grains or mung beans size, which can occur on the face and back of the hand. And linearly arranged.
Plant warts can grow at the bottom of the feet, and most people often confuse it with chicken eyes. Early plantar warts were small pimples, and then gradually developed into yellow spots with rough surfaces. There were no obvious leather on the surface. After cutting off the surface of the warts or warts, they would see black spots or bleeding points. Plant warts are rarely a single. When multiple connections are connected, a large warts are formed, and chicken eye is usually single.
Condyloma acuminatum usually grows around the anus. It is shaped like cauliflower. The color is gray, and the lesions are soft and not easy to produce thick skin.
As the saying goes, if a “mother -in -law” grows, it will have a lot of “little monkeys”. This is because people with long sister -in -law are usually weak in immunity. After the skin is contaminated by HPV virus, the virus will not be destroyed by the immune system immediately. When scratching the sister -in -law or rubbing hard and rubbing the skin, it may cause slight damage to the skin, and the HPV virus will continue to “inoculate” to the surrounding skin, causing the new mule to continue to grow.
And whether it is “mother -in -law” or “new sister -in -law”, they are contagious. Not only will they continue to “inoculate” on their own skin, but they can also be contacted (such as direct contact with the patient’s rash) or indirect contact with indirect contact. Infection (such as sharing towels, contact clothing, etc.), but only when skin damage and low immunity are met, the skin can infect HPV viruses to grow into a mule.
If you want to prevent mules, you must first improve your own immunity.
The second is that when the long -sized dumplings, do not scratch and scrub the skin and the surrounding skin to prevent the virus from spreading and vaccination. If the mule is large, you can go to the hospital for surgery to remove it to effectively prevent it from spreading outward. It can also use electro -burning, carbon dioxide laser or frozen treatment, and oral or external antiviral drugs to eliminate viruses.
It should be reminded that many people will think that the HPV vaccine can prevent mules, but in fact, the HPV vaccine is mainly to prevent high -risk HPV, which has no preventive effect on warts caused by low -hazard HPV virus infections.And if women have warts, the body’s resistance to HPV may weaken. It is recommended to check the cervix HPV regularly.In general, the small meat balls and small meat on these skin must not be processed by themselves. The best way is to go to the hospital dermatology in time to receive the diagnosis and treatment of doctors.
