What Are Warts?

Warts are benign skin growths caused by certain strains of the human papillomavirus (HPV). They can affect individuals of all ages but are more common in children and people with weakened immune systems. Warts are contagious and can spread through direct contact or shared surfaces. They are commonly found on the hands, feet, and face but can appear anywhere on the body. While warts are generally harmless, they can cause discomfort, pain, or embarrassment, making effective treatment important for both health and confidence.

Signs & Symptoms of Warts

Warts can vary in appearance depending on their type and location. Common signs include:

  • Rough, Raised Bumps: Small growths with a rough texture, often resembling cauliflower.
  • Black Dots: Tiny black specks, often referred to as "wart seeds," caused by clotted blood vessels.
  • Flat or Smooth Growths: Smaller, smoother warts often found on the face or legs.
  • Pain or Discomfort: Warts on weight-bearing areas like the feet may cause pain when walking.
