Warts are small, rough or smooth growths that commonly appear on the skin. They are usually caused by certain types of human papillomavirus (HPV) and can affect children and adults. Warts may develop on the hands, fingers, feet, face and other areas of the body. Some warts disappear on their own, while others may remain for months or years or spread to nearby areas.

At Sree Homeo Hub, patients from Hyderabad and other parts of India can consult experienced homeopathy doctors for an individualized assessment of recurring or troublesome warts. Online consultations are also available for patients in India and abroad.

What Are Warts?

Warts are non-cancerous skin growths caused by HPV infection of the outer layer of the skin. The virus can enter through tiny cuts, scratches or damaged skin and may spread through direct contact or contaminated surfaces.

Warts can look different depending on their location and type. Some are rough and raised, while others are flat or grow inward, particularly on the soles of the feet.

Common Types of Warts

1. Common Warts

Common warts are usually rough, firm and raised. They frequently occur on the fingers, hands, around the nails and on the elbows.

2. Plantar Warts

Plantar warts develop on the soles of the feet. Because body weight presses them inward, they may sometimes appear flat and can be uncomfortable while walking.

3. Flat Warts

Flat warts are generally smaller and smoother than common warts. They may occur in larger numbers and are often seen on the face, arms or legs.

4. Periungual Warts

These warts occur around or underneath the fingernails and toenails. They may sometimes interfere with normal nail growth.

5. Filiform Warts

Filiform warts are thin, thread-like growths that commonly occur around the face, nose, mouth or neck.

Common Symptoms of Warts

Depending on the type and location, symptoms may include:

A small, raised skin growth
Rough or uneven skin surface
Skin-coloured, greyish or brownish appearance
Multiple small growths in one area
Pain or tenderness, particularly with plantar warts
Growth around the nails
Warts that gradually increase in number or size

A skin growth that changes rapidly, bleeds repeatedly, becomes very painful or does not resemble a typical wart should be evaluated by a qualified medical professional.

What Causes Warts?

Warts are primarily associated with infection by HPV. The virus can spread through:

Direct skin-to-skin contact
Touching a wart and then another area of the body
Sharing personal items such as towels or nail tools
Walking barefoot in some communal areas
Picking, scratching or cutting an existing wart

Not everyone exposed to HPV develops visible warts. The appearance and persistence of warts can vary from person to person.

Are Warts Contagious?

Yes. Warts can spread from one person to another and can also spread from one part of the body to another.

To reduce the possibility of spreading warts:

Avoid picking or scratching them.
Wash your hands regularly.
Do not share towels, razors or nail clippers.
Keep the affected area clean and dry.
Avoid biting nails or picking the skin around the nails.
Do not cut or burn a wart yourself.

Frequently Asked Questions About Warts

1. What is the main cause of warts?

Most ordinary skin warts are caused by infection with certain types of HPV.

2. Are warts dangerous?

Most common skin warts are harmless. However, not every skin growth is a wart, so unusual, changing, bleeding or painful lesions should be medically evaluated.

3. Can warts spread?

Yes. Warts can spread through direct contact and can also spread to other parts of the same person's body.

4. Can warts disappear naturally?

Yes. Some warts disappear without treatment, although this can take considerable time and varies between individuals.

5. Can I cut a wart at home?

It is not recommended. Cutting or burning a wart yourself can cause bleeding, infection and scarring and may spread the virus.

6. Can diet cure warts?

There is no scientifically proven diet that cures ordinary warts. A balanced diet supports general health, but specific foods should not be promoted as a cure for HPV-related warts.

7. Should I avoid milk or eggs when I have warts?

There is no general medical requirement to avoid milk or eggs because of ordinary warts. Dietary restrictions should be based on individual medical or nutritional needs.

8. Can children develop warts?

Yes. Warts are common in children and teenagers.

9. Can warts come back after treatment?

Yes. Recurrence can occur because treatment may remove the visible wart without immediately eliminating HPV from the surrounding skin.

10. Is every skin growth a wart?

No. Several skin conditions can look similar to warts. A healthcare professional should assess an uncertain or unusual growth.
