Warts and verrucas
What are warts and verrucas?
Warts are common, harmless skin growths caused by certain strains of the human papillomavirus (HPV). A verruca is simply a wart that develops on the sole of the foot. They may become painful when walking, spread to other areas of the body or appear in clusters. Because some skin conditions can resemble warts or verrucas, a professional assessment helps confirm the correct diagnosis before treatment.
