Warts are small, raised growths on the skin caused by a viral infection. They are usually harmless, but depending on their location, they can be uncomfortable, painful, or affect confidence. There are several different types of warts:
Often appear on the fingers and hands. They have a rough, grainy surface and are slightly raised.
Develop on the soles of the feet and grow inward due to pressure, which can make them painful when walking.
Small, smooth, and often appear on the face, arms, or thighs.
Thin, skin-coloured growths that commonly appear around the mouth, nose, or neck.
Form around or under fingernails and toenails and may affect nail growth.
