Understanding Candida Antigen Therapy and How It’s Used for Wart Treatment

Many people will develop warts during their lives. They affect roughly 10% of the global population and are most common among school-aged children. For many wart-sufferers, the go-to treatment has been OTC remedies. However, there are new ways for those who have warts to find relief: candida antigen therapy. 

More About Warts

Warts are small, noncancerous growths that occur when your skin has been infected with a strand of the human papillomavirus (HPV). Warts can occur on any area of the skin, however they are most commonly found on the hands or feet. Often kids and teens are more prone to getting warts because their immune systems have not fully developed immunity to the HPV, however warts can still occur in adults. It is not uncommon for warts to appear in the adult population during times of stress, weakened immunity, or due to coming in contact with someone who has the virus. There are a multitude of treatments for warts which are offered here in our office. One such treatment is Candida Antigen immunotherapy. This is a great treatment option to assist in the elimination of warts when other treatments have not resulted in a resolution of the condition or as a first line treatment if necessary. 

What is Candida Antigen

Candida antigen is a cutaneous injection type of treatment that boost the immune system, assisting the natural immune system to fight off the variety of HPV or Molluscum virus strands that cause the warts to arise. 

Who is a Good Candidate for Candida Antigen

Individuals who do not see good results with other wart treatments or who experience multiple wart recurrences can often benefit from Candida Antigen treatment.
