Warts information and locations in Mexico
Warts or common warts are infections of the top layer of the skin caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV). They are different from fibroids or skin tags that appear on the neck or armpits.
Warts are caused by direct contact with shared objects or skin lesions such as scratches and usually appear 2 to 6 months after exposure to the virus. They mainly appear on the fingers, hands, nails, face, neck and knees and can be identified as small, rough bumps to the touch.
Treatment may vary depending on the location and symptoms, the dermatologist will create a treatment plan in which exfoliating medication, cryotherapy or laser may be used to cauterize the growth.
