What are warts and verrucae?

Warts are caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV) and appear as raised bumps on the skin. Warts are contagious and may sometimes be painful but they are generally not dangerous. A verruca is a wart on the sole of the foot and are sometimes known as 'plantar warts'.

How do you treat a wart or verruca?

Sometimes warts can clear up on their own but during this time they can still spread to others. You can treat warts on your own with nonprescription medication or by soaking them in water and manually removing them.

“There are a number of different ways to treat warts and verrucas. Some people may choose to do nothing and let the wart or verruca go away on its own, while others may opt for more aggressive treatment methods. One popular over-the-counter treatment for warts is salicylic acid. This can be found in various forms, such as gels, creams, liquids, and pads. It works by causing the outer layer of the skin to peel off, taking the wart with it.

It’s important to follow the directions on the package carefully when using these products!”
