Types of Warts

Based on the appearance and location, warts can be of the following types.

Common Warts

• These generally develop on the nails, fingers, toes, or the back side of the hands. Common warts can also develop on the knees. They can also develop on broken skin parts.
• They have a rough texture and differ in size ranging from a pinhead to a size of a pea.
• A common wart that has a cauliflower-type appearance is considered a butcher’s wart.
• Tiny seed-like black dots can also appear in the common wart.

Plantar Warts

• Warts on the feet or ankles are considered Plantar warts. Plantar warts on the toes and feet soles are generally referred to as verrucous.

Mosaic Warts

• Mosaic warts typically develop in groups and are seen on the toes or in the balls of the feet.
• Mosaic warts can also appear anywhere on the foot's sole.
• Compared to plantar warts, mosaic warts are paler and flatter.

Genital Warts

• They usually occur through sexually transmitted infections.
• Genital warts frequently do not result in any additional symptoms as per studies.
• These warts are known to cause some pain or itchiness based on their place of development or size.
• They can vary in colour ranging from dark brown to pink.
• The shape can also vary for these kinds of warts. While some are flat, others are bumpy. Sometimes, they appear as a skin tag.
• The locations of gentle warts include the vagina, penis, scrotum, anus, vulva, cervix, and urethra.
• Certain types of cancer can be brought on by the same HPV strain that causes genital warts. Hence, some genital warts can be cancerous. So, if one notices the development of a genital wart, it is advisable to book a doctor’s consultation as early as possible.

Periungual Warts

• Sometimes warts can be seen developing around the fingernails and toenails. These warts are referred to as Periungual warts.
• They typically spread below the nail as they mature.
• Due to their location of occurrence, it is difficult to treat them.

Flat Warts

• Warts that are flat or plane-like smooth and slightly elevated are referred to as flat warts.

• But flat warts can also appear on the lower arms, legs, and hands.

Filiform Warts

• Filiform warts frequently develop around the eyes, nose, and mouth.
• These are lengthy and spiky growths.
• Filiform warts expand rapidly. Hence, seeking doctor help immediately is advised.

Causes of Warts

• According to studies, warts are believed to be caused by a group of HPV viruses. When one of these viruses infects the epidermis of the skin, warts develop.
• Those who have minor cuts or other types of skin trauma are more likely to get warts.
• Warts typically spread more quickly on wet skin.
• Warts are contagious meaning they can spread from an infected person to a normal person through physical contact. Even habits like cuticle picking and nail biting can also cause warts.
• Shaving is also one causative factor for warts.
• Sexual contact with a person who has genital warts, whether it be vaginal, oral, or anal, can cause genital warts.

Diagnosis of Warts

Warts can be recognized by bumps. However, a doctor may refer to a skin biopsy for confirming HPV infection.

Health Impacts of warts

Risk of Cancer

Anal cancer, cervical cancer, and throat (oropharyngeal) cancer are a few types of cancer that HPV and genital warts have been related to. By receiving the HPV vaccine and using protective barriers such as condoms, one can reduce your risk of developing genital warts.

Pain

Most warts are painless. However, plantar warts can develop inside the foot and hurt to walk on. They can give the feeling of pebbles under the skin.

Immunotherapy

It is a type of biological treatment that aids in provoking the immune system to combat the human papillomavirus. Due to its low recurrence rate and ease of use in comparison to other therapies, immunotherapy is becoming more and more popular. It is most frequently used to treat resistant warts and genital warts at clinics.

Bleomycin Treatment

An anti-cancer medication known as bleomycin or intralesional bleomycin is well-known and widely used by doctors for its ability to help in eliminating different kinds of warts. It is used when the physician finds it hard to remove warts due to their location, for example, mosaic warts. To stop the wart cells from multiplying, bleomycin is directly injected into the wart's side. This breaks down the HPV DNA molecules and thus stops cell growth in the region.

Electrosurgery

This method is generally associated with curettage, a type of surgery that removes tissue with a tool that resembles a spoon and has a sharp edge.  Not just electrosurgery but curettage is also followed for effective removal of warts. But this procedure can be painful for some. So, certain doctors administer local anesthetics to reduce the pain and discomfort. To remove the wart, this procedure involves heating the electric needle which is used to destroy the wart. Later curettage is done.
