Warts are small, irritating skin growths that often match the color of the surrounding skin. These self-limited tumors typically form when a virus comes into contact with the skin. Warts can appear on any part of the body and are highly contagious, spreading through touch. They often develop in areas damaged by injury and can cause itchiness and pain. While some warts disappear on their own, others may persist for months or even years. Fortunately, there are many cost-effective treatments available for wart removal that carry a low risk of infection spreading to other parts of the body or other people. Warts are typically skin-colored but can also be black or brown.
