Warts can be unsightly and sometimes painful, causing discomfort and self-consciousness. These small, fleshy growths are caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV) and can appear anywhere on the skin, with some areas more prone than others.

Warts occur when the HPV virus infects the broken top layer of the skin, causing the skin cells to multiply rapidly and form a small, raised, and often rough-textured lesion. They may vary in appearance, size, and shape, depending on the type of HPV involved and the location on the body. There are several types of warts, including common warts, plantar warts, flat warts, and genital warts, each with distinct characteristics.

Generally, while these warts are harmless, they are contagious and may spread to others in close contact, such as children or family members.

How Do Viral Warts Spread?

  • Touching a Wart Directly: Direct contact with a wart on someone else's body can transmit the virus.
  • Touching a Contaminated Surface: Coming into contact with objects like doorknobs, clothes, or towels that have been used by someone with warts.
  • Sexual Activity: In the case of genital warts, they can spread through sexual contact.
  • Nail Biting: Spreading the virus to the face and mouth area through biting nails that have been in contact with warts.
  • Shaving: Spreading the virus to other parts of the body, especially if shaving over a wart, potentially causing cuts and abrasions which can become new sites for warts.
  • Shared Personal Items: Using shared personal items like razors, socks, or shoes that might have come into contact with warts.

Risk Factors for Developing Warts

Weak Immune System

Individuals with weakened immune systems are more susceptible to HPV infections.

Young Age

Children and teenagers are more prone to warts due to their developing immune systems.

Skin Trauma or Existing Skin Condition

Cuts or abrasions, or people with skin conditions such as eczema which may lead to more open wounds, may make it easier for the virus to enter the skin.

Close Proximity to Individuals Who Have Warts

People who are often near others with warts, like family members or classmates, are more likely to get warts. This can happen through direct skin contact or by using shared personal items like towels or stationery.

What should I expect after undergoing a procedure to remove warts?

Typically, the healing process lasts from one to two weeks. During your recovery, you can return to most daily routines, such as taking showers and exercising. However, it's important to steer clear of swimming and direct exposure to sunlight at first to avoid risks like slow healing or pigmentation issues. It's usually safe to apply light makeup a couple of days after the treatment. Our doctor and team will give you comprehensive and personalized guidance for aftercare to ensure a smooth recovery.
