Signs and Symptoms of Warts

The symptoms of warts can vary depending on the type of wart and its location on the body. Common symptoms include rough, raised bumps on the skin, often with a cauliflower-like appearance. Warts can also appear as flat, smooth lesions on the skin. In some cases, warts may cause pain or discomfort, especially when they develop on weight-bearing areas such as the soles of the feet.

In addition to physical symptoms, warts can also cause emotional distress and embarrassment, especially when they appear on visible areas such as the face or hands. It’s important to seek treatment for warts to alleviate symptoms and reduce the risk of spreading the virus to others.
