After infection with high-risk HPV, patients may face a series of health issues affecting the skin and reproductive system. 1. Flat warts—flat papules ranging in size from pinhead to fingernail—may appear on the skin surface. These lesions not only affect appearance but may also cause mild itching or discomfort. 2. In terms of the reproductive system, patients may experience increased vaginal discharge, which may be milky white, mucus-like, or viscous, causing inconvenience in daily life. 3. Symptoms such as abdominal pain, lower back pain, and soreness may also occur, significantly impacting the patient's physical health and quality of life. 4. Once these symptoms appear, patients should seek medical attention promptly and receive diagnosis and treatment from qualified healthcare professionals to safeguard their health.
