Know Thy Warts Here....

Warts are benign tumors or skin growths on the epidermis or top layer of the skin. They cause pain and discomfort to many people. It is well documented that warts are highly contagious.

Warts are not just considered a minor skin problem, but they are considered a common skin problem. That is because millions of Americans develop warts, at least once in their lifetime.

Warts are mainly skin colored but sometimes darker in color. They have multiple appearance depending on where they are growing. Some are rough, some flat and some smooth. For this reason they are classified differently.

The classification are as follows::
- Common wart
- Foot wart (Plantar. Also known as Planter)
- Flat wart
- Genital warts

Common wart can be found on the hand, finger and around the nails. Foot wart (also known as Planter ) are usually found on the soles of the feet. If found in clusters, they are known as mosaic warts. Planter warts can be extremely painful.

Flat warts are smaller and smoother and they tend to grow in large numbers at any one time. They can occur anywhere on the body but mainly on the face (facial wart), lips (lip wart), neck, arms, hands, mouth (oral wart), but rarely on the tongue.

Genital warts are those exclusively in the genital area.

Wart are caused by the virus called human papillomavirus (HPV) which attacks both children and adults. There are over 60 different HPV that causes this contagious skin problem. Warts can be removed but there is no cure for the HPV virus.

Now that you may be able to determine which type of wart or warts you have, you may be able to decide on an appropriate course of action. Almost all warts can be removed at home, but it is advised that you, at least, seek professional advice. In fact, if you have genital warts, you are urged to see a healthcare professional. This is because, in addition to having your warts removed, you may also need to be prescribed medication. This medication may help to reduce the number of outbreaks you experience.
