Warts arise in a variety of shapes and sizes. A wart may look as a bump with a rough surface, or it may be flat and smooth. Tiny blood vessels (capillaries) grow into the core of the wart to supply it with blood. HPV is passed from person to person by direct or indirect contact and from one body location to another on the same person. The virus more easily enters the body through an area of skin that is moist, peeling, or cracked.Some types are transmitted sexually. There are four major types of warts. Common warts usually mature on the fingers, around the nails and on the back of the hands. Plantar or Foot warts usually develop on the soles of feet. This type of wart tends to get pushed back into the skin due to the pressure exerted on them by walking and standing. Flat warts can occur anywhere but are found mainly on the face (beard area) in men, and on the legs in women.They are smaller, smoother and tend to develop in larger numbers. Genital Warts are soft, fleshy and occur around the sex organs. They can be raised, pointed...more
