What Causes Warts?
Dec 03, 2025
Common warts are small, coarse growths on the skin that often appear on the fingers or hands. They have a rugged texture and usually have a couple of little black dots accompanying them.
Human Papillomavirus (HPV) is the main cause of both common and plantar warts, which is a contagious virus that can be spread by touch. It might take from two to six months for the wart to develop after coming in contact with the virus.
Plantar warts are small, often appearing on weight-bearing areas of the feet such as the heel. Because of the pressure, plantar warts can grow inwardly into the thick outer layer of skin known as the callus.
The most common way in which plantar warts can form are cuts, tears, or small openings on the bottom of the foot. HPV can enter the body through these openings, which in turn can cause plantar warts to form.
