Warts

Warts are small skin growths that normally look like a cauliflower or blisters, and are caused by an infection of the human papilloma virus or the HPV. Infection from this virus is extremely common, and that is why, most people develop warts at least once in their life. The blisters from the infection can appear as a single bump, but they may also emerge as a cluster. Warts affect both men and women and the small growths are seen almost all over the skin, but more so in the hands and feet. And even the genital organs are affected.

Warts can be further classified into different types based on their nature and where they appear such as the genital warts variety, flat warts, plantar warts and mosaic warts. Though mostly harmless, but warts can still be painful – the blisters look red and swollen. They also bleed and ooze pus. So suffering from the warts infection is not a good idea. Warts are highly contagious and can spread from one person to another quite easily.
