HPV treatment options are diverse, with corresponding measures taken according to different conditions. For low-risk HPV infections, improving lifestyle and enhancing immunity are key, and many patients can recover spontaneously. However, high-risk HPV infections require active treatment to prevent serious consequences such as cervical cancer. Medication is a common approach that effectively reduces viral damage to the body. Additionally, physical therapies such as laser therapy and cryotherapy have shown significant efficacy, enabling precise treatment of affected tissues. For patients with malignant transformation or metastasis, surgical intervention is the first-line option, removing lesions to prevent further disease progression. Throughout the entire treatment process, patients should actively cooperate with their physicians and undergo regular check-ups and evaluations to ensure optimal treatment outcomes.
