Common Skin Conditions

Warts

Warts are growths caused by a viral infection. They commonly appear on the hands, the fingers, the sole of the foot, the lower legs and the face. They are spread from person to person. There are many different types of warts, depending on the exact virus that causes the growth. For example, plantar warts, on the bottom of the foot, are caused by a different virus than flat warts on the face. Warts are treated by destroying the infected skin. The most effective treatments are administered by dermatologists and include liquid nitrogen, immunotherapy and bleomycin.
