中新网武汉8月8日电 (武一力 严睿)近日,武汉市第一医院皮肤科主治医师肖婧接诊了一位22岁的美甲爱好者吴女士,她因指缝间长出透明的小包,不痛不痒却越长越大,前来就诊。经过仔细检查,肖婧医生诊断吴女士患有的赘生物是由HPV病毒感染所致的甲周寻常疣,需要进行液氮冷冻治疗。
肖婧医生介绍,甲周寻常疣是由人乳头瘤病毒(HPV)感染引起的,常见于指甲周围、趾间甚至甲下皮肤,形成表面粗糙的丘疹、结节,具有传染性。美甲过程中,由于需要锉指甲、打磨和修剪甲小皮,这些操作容易造成皮肤微小破损,使得HPV病毒“趁虚而入”,进入上皮细胞并增殖,导致上皮细胞异常分化和增生。
肖婧提醒,市场上的美甲店水平参差不齐,很多美甲店难以做到工具“一人一换”,且缺乏严格消毒。因此,在选择美甲店时,要特别留心美甲产品是否为正规产品,并选择卫生状况较好的美甲店。对于本身就患有皮肤疾病或易患湿疹、皮炎等疾病的人群,建议尽量不要做美甲和涂抹指甲油。美甲后,如出现红肿、发黄、起泡等不良反应,应尽快到皮肤科就医。
肖婧医生还指出,HPV病毒是一种常见的病毒,可以通过多种途径传播,包括直接接触或通过污染的工具。因此,提高个人卫生意识,选择正规的美甲服务,以及定期进行健康检查,对于预防HPV感染至关重要。同时,她强调,对于任何皮肤异常,应及时就医,以免耽误病情。
此次事件提醒广大美甲爱好者,在追求美甲美观的同时,也要注重个人卫生和健康,避免因美甲导致皮肤健康问题。同时,这也提示相关部门和美甲行业加强监管和规范,确保消费者使用的美甲工具和产品安全可靠,减少因美甲引起的健康风险。

News Title: “Manicures May Be New Vector for HPV Infection: Woman in Wuhan Develops Strangely Appearing Bumps in Nail Folds”
Keywords: Manicure, HPV, Sanitation

Wuhan, August 8th (Weilil, Yanzhi) – Recently, Xiao Jing, a resident physician in the Dermatology Department of the First Hospital of Wuhan, treated a 22-year-old nail polish enthusiast, Ms. Wu, who came to the hospital because small transparent bumps had appeared in her nail folds, growing larger without pain or itch. After a thorough examination, Dr. Xiao diagnosed Ms. Wu’s growth as common verruca vulgaris, an HPV virus infection that requires treatment with liquid nitrogen cryotherapy.
Dr. Xiao explained that common verruca vulgaris is caused by human papillomavirus (HPV) infection, which is common in the skin around the nails, between the toes, and even under the nails, forming rough papules and nodules. It is contagious. During the manicure process, due to the need to file nails, buff and trim cuticles, these operations can easily cause minor skin damage, allowing the HPV virus to “invade” and enter the epithelial cells, causing abnormal differentiation and proliferation of the epithelial cells.
Dr. Xiao warned that the level of service in the market’s nail salons varies greatly, and many salons cannot guarantee that tools are used “one person, one change,” and there is a lack of strict sanitation. Therefore, when choosing a nail salon, it is particularly important to pay attention to whether the nail products are genuine and choose a salon with better hygiene conditions. For individuals who already have skin diseases or are prone to eczema, dermatitis, and other conditions, it is recommended to avoid getting manicures and applying nail polish as much as possible. After a manicure, if there are any adverse reactions such as swelling, yellowing, or blisters, it should be promptly treated by a dermatologist.
Dr. Xiao also pointed out that HPV virus is a common virus that can be transmitted through various means, including direct contact or through contaminated tools. Therefore, raising personal hygiene awareness, choosing legitimate nail services, and regular health checks are crucial for preventing HPV infection. She also emphasized the importance of seeking medical attention promptly for any skin abnormalities to avoid delays in treatment.
This incident reminds enthusiasts of manicures to not only pursue the aesthetic appearance but also to pay attention to personal hygiene and health, avoiding skin health problems caused by manicures. It also prompts relevant departments and the nail industry to strengthen regulation and standardization to ensure the safety and reliability of the nail tools and products used by consumers, reducing the health risks associated with manicures.
