Do you have warts? Do you know what causes them? The fact is warts are caused by human papilloma virus (HPV). Since warts are caused by a virus they are contagious. Once you have been infected with this virus it stays with you for as long as you live. Skin warts or papillomas can be transmitted between individuals by a filterable infectious agent. If the virus is not treated within time it can cause skin cancers and other health related problems.

There are many different types of warts. The most common warts are the rough looking lesions most often found on the hands and fingers. The much smaller, smoother flat warts can be found on the hands and fingers also, but may even show up on the face and eyes. Warts on the bottom of the feet are called plantar warts and can sometimes be over an inch around. Genital warts develop in the genital and anal area; these have become a growing problem.
