Warts are a type of skin infection caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV). The infection causes rough , skin- coloured bumps to form on the skin. The virus is contagious. They can appear on everywhere on our bodies, and in many different forms.
For example, they can be
– flat warts on face, forehead, neck area;
– common warts on hands/ forearms;
– Plantar warts on the sole of the feet, these warts are often painful and form in clusters, they look like calluses with tiny black dots in the center.
– Genitals warts on penis, vagina or rectum, these warts are a type of sexually transmitted infection.
How are warts managed or treated?
Warts can go away on their own after your immune system fights off the virus. However, as the warts can be spread from person to person , cause pain and unsightly, sometimes treatment is recommended . Options include:
– Topical medicine : salicylic acid, or Imiquimoid etc.
– Freezing ( cryotherapy ) : Liquid nitrogen is applied to freeze the wart, blisters will be formed , and eventually the wart peel off. Hyperpigmentation on the area may be resulted.
– debridement and diathermy : this is for some big or stubborn warts , where the area is applied with some topical analgesic, and then the wart is debrided and the wound is sometimes closed with a diathermy.
– CO2 laser treatment : laser light is used to hear and destroy tiny blood vessels inside the wart. The process cuts off blood supply and kills the wart. The fine beam of light can be used to target on some very small warts on face, and decreases the risk of hurting surrounding healthy skin tissues.

World Health Organization (WHO) announced that Non communicable diseases (NCDs) such as cardiovascular diseases, malignancies and diabetes has become a global pandemic, causing 41 million of deaths , accounted for 71% of all deaths globally.
Tobacco use, physical inactivity, the harmful use of alcohol and unhealthy diets all contributed to the main cause of dying from NCDs.
Hence, early detection, screening and treatment are essential to tackle the NCDs.
Our center provides a tailored made health screening to individual patients. Patients can discuss with our doctors to decide the most suitable health needs and screening for them, to ensure their well being and avoid unnecessary costs.

Colorectal cancer is the second most common cancer locally. In 2019, there were 5 556 newly diagnosed colorectal cancer cases, accounting for 15.8 per cent of new cancer cases. Colorectal cancer is also the second most common cause of cancer death after lung cancer in Hong Kong. In 2020, colorectal cancer led to 2 287 deaths, accounting for 15.4 per cent of all cancer deaths.

Hong Kong residents aged between 50 and 75 (born in the years between 1946 and 1972 )are eligible to enrol in the Colorectal Cancer Screening Programme (CRCSP) from January 1, 2022. They can undergo subsidised screening tests every two years in the private sector for prevention of colorectal cancer. The years of birth of eligible persons are updated at the beginning of each year.

CRCSP can identify people who have colorectal cancer before they present with symptoms, or those with higher risk of colorectal cancer, and enable them to receive early treatment, thus significantly improving the prognosis. With colorectal adenoma removed in the course of a colonoscopy, these lesions are also prevented from turning into cancer.

There is no quota for participants under the CRCSP and it is heavily subsidised by the Government. Over 220 colonoscopy specialists have also joined the CRCSP to provide colonoscopy examination services at about 600 service locations. If no polyp removal is necessary, about 86 per cent of these locations will not require additional charges. If polyp removal is needed, about 75 per cent of these locations will not require additional charges.

For more information on the CRCSP, please contact our staff by the our hotline(+852 21867712 / +852 21867713) during office hours.
