Warts are non-cancerous skin growths caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV). They often appear as rough, raised bumps on the skin and can develop on various parts of the body, including the hands, feet, and face.
At Precision Dermatology, we treat warts using safe and effective methods to eliminate the virus and restore healthy skin. Warts are contagious and can spread through direct contact or shared surfaces, so early treatment is essential to prevent further spread.
Our treatment options include cryotherapy, topical medications, laser therapy, and minor surgical procedures to remove warts and minimize recurrence.
Warts are common, contagious skin growths caused by a viral infection. Below are answers to frequently asked questions about their causes, types, treatments, and prevention.
What causes warts?
Warts are caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV), which infects the top layer of skin, leading to abnormal growth.
Are warts contagious?
Yes, warts are contagious and can spread through direct contact with a wart or indirectly through contaminated surfaces like towels or shoes.
What are the different types of warts?
Common types include common warts (on hands and fingers), plantar warts (on the soles of the feet), flat warts (on the face and neck), and genital warts.
How are warts treated?
Treatment options include cryotherapy (freezing), topical treatments, laser therapy, or minor surgical removal. Over-the-counter treatments may work for some, but persistent warts often require professional care.
Can warts come back after treatment?
