Wart Treatments

What Are Warts?

Warts are benign growths on the skin caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV). They can appear anywhere on the body, including hands, feet, and face, and are often characterized by rough, raised surfaces. While they are generally harmless, warts can be unsightly and may cause discomfort or embarrassment.

What causes them?

Warts are caused by an infection with HPV, which is highly contagious. The virus can enter the skin through small cuts or abrasions, leading to the growth of warts. Certain types of HPV are more likely to cause warts on specific areas of the body. Factors such as weakened immune systems, direct contact with warts, or sharing personal items can increase the risk of developing warts.

What are the treatment options?

Treatment for warts varies depending on their type, location, and severity. Common options include:

  • Topical Treatments: Over-the-counter solutions containing salicylic acid can help gradually peel away warts.
  • Cryotherapy: This involves freezing the wart with liquid nitrogen to destroy the tissue.
  • Electrosurgery: Using electrical currents, this method removes warts by cutting them away.
  • Laser Treatment: High-intensity laser beams target and destroy wart tissue.
  • Surgical Excision: In some cases, warts may be surgically removed, especially if they are large or resistant to other treatments.er treatments.
