Can men be infected with the HPV virus?

HPV is a highly contagious virus, and its main route of transmission is sexual transmission. Patients with this disease should not have sex with others, and should also be careful about exchanging saliva with others, especially patients with children at home, so as not to pass the virus to children. This disease does not discriminate between men and women, so men can also be infected. The best way to avoid this disease is to have a good sex life. The following article introduces the relevant content, let's take a look.

1. First of all, men need to have a deeper understanding of the HPV virus. One of the characteristics of this virus is that it only invades humans and is not pathogenic to other animals. Once the human body is infected with the HPV virus, it will carry it for life. The HPV virus has very strong resistance, is more tolerant of dryness and can survive for a long time. It has a strong survival ability. In view of this characteristic, we can choose to heat or treat it with formalin when killing the virus, so the HPV virus can be killed by high-temperature disinfection.

2. Since the disease is prone to recurrence after treatment, and the medical community has not yet found a way to completely eradicate HPV, it is very difficult to get this disease. Therefore, surgical excision is one of the methods. Surgery is suitable for patients with more serious conditions, but it is easy to recur after surgery, and surgery will inevitably form scars. Many men also care about their appearance. In addition, sexual contact in life is the main channel for the spread of HPV, so men must strengthen their awareness of self-protection in life.

3. Male patients should avoid infecting others while actively receiving treatment. First of all, we should refrain from sexual intercourse, because sexual intercourse is the culprit for HPV. Secondly, HPV virus is contagious, so chopsticks and towels used by yourself should be separated from those used by others. You should also develop good living habits, insist on washing the vulva every day, change underwear frequently, reduce the irritation of secretions and bacterial infection, and wash and disinfect the underwear separately.

Finally, you must develop good living habits and actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment. In addition, men must maintain an optimistic and cheerful attitude during treatment. Attitude is a strong guarantee for curing the disease. Keep a distance from others and do not endanger the health of others. Believe that after taking the correct treatment method, the HPV virus will eventually be eliminated by you, and face every day happily.
