Freezing of warts and skin areas

I have a great skin Dr from Sacramento. My first visit with her was a few years ago, when I took this video of time lapse of a area she froze off my hand.  This was a Wart, that would not go away.  She loved her little Freezing canister, when I showed her some lother dark spots area She froze those.

She checked up on me six months later.

A year went by.  This time, A different spot on the same hand was of concern, that she froze off using       Cryotherapy. 

What to know about freezing Warts

Warts are noncancerous tumors that develop due to human papillomavirus (HPV) infections. Cryosurgery, or cryotherapy, is a common way to remove them. It involves freezing off the targeted cells and tissues.

My fingers have arthritis or degenerative disc disease for the old timers.  Some special rx creams are used to keep fingers moving, and skin dermatitis at bay.

a old time medicine, used as a heart medicine, Clonidine, was used before my diagnosis to unclench  my hands which were doughy, with clenched fingers.  the Doctor 12 years ago, I remember him saying, you have something going on, but the insurance company won't let me run tests to find out. Clonidine was titrated up and down, to get what opened my hands. Little did I know of Multiple Sclerosis.

The Skin Doctor also took some biopsies this year. A spot on my back was cut off, and put into a jar.   The picture above is a spot that she froze . some dark spots off some other areas was also cut off.

A few weeks went by with them growing me in a lab.

Then came some unusual results back.   HPV, also known as Warts. These are highly contagious.

What to know about freezing Warts

And where did they originate? I went backwards in my mind thirty years at least.

My partner has been with me for twenty years, and has no symptoms.

The legions , only looked like dark aging spots, not raised or bumpy like warts are supposed to look like.  I got quite uncomfortable looking at pictures on the internet, so beware of what you search for. 

 So the next step I took was looking at my medicine pamphlets. Those really fine small print fold out papers.

I am on Copaxone, as my Diseases Modifying Therapies. DMT.

There it was, clear as could be of what Copaxone could cause.

Skin and Appendages:

Frequent: Eczema, herpes zoster, pustular rash, skin atrophy, and warts.

Infrequent: Dry skin, skin hypertrophy, dermatitis, furunculosis, psoriasis, angioedema, 

contact dermatitis, erythema nodosum, fungal dermatitis, maculopapular rash, 

pigmentation, benign skin neoplasm, skin carcinoma, skin striae, and vesiculobullous 

rash.

Teeth caries is also on there, making trouble with my teeth every year. Its common name is tooth decay.

I saw the dentist for four days, a cleaning, and many fillings. 

The dentist spent four days in a row. Eight cavities filled. A tooth extraction was saved for later date. I was glad of that.  Our dental facility is in the Indian tribal land, near their casino. We both don't gamble, and way to much smoke to go into their massive complex.

The drive is not for the faint of heart from our house. You must go thru the town of volcano, population 100. But the windy roads and curves to get down to the small valley, and the steepest road out, that our vehicle bogs down going slowly up thru more curves to get to the highway.        

 my skin Dr next  in next month, just came, her earliest appointment to freeze the pesky dark spots off.    The unkown, as this time a fingernail was cut off to grow.  A normal immune system would get rid of these in two years, but one with Multiple Sclerosis on a DMT, unknown.

Now the Endocrinologist says I have Thick Blood. A Major concern from her, that I had to email all my Drs.

Thick blood

Thanks for reading, and any comments!
