Although warts are fairly common, people who have them may feel self-conscious about having them. Warts usually appear in the form of raised rough bumps. Despite being fairly harmless, warts are skin infections that can spread easily on your body and to other peopleb as well. So, if one or two warts show up on your skin, it’s a good idea to try an over-the-counter wart removal treatment or visit a dermatologist before it can spread to other parts of your body or other people.

Here’s what to know about what causes warts and how to get rid of them.

What Causes Warts?

HPV is the primary culprit that causes warts. If you have a cut or cracks in your skin caused by dry skin, the HPV virus can enter via skin-to-skin or sexual contact with someone who has the virus, thus causing warts.

The Different Types of Warts

Warts can appear all over the body, and while they don’t usually cause discomfort, they can spread easily to different parts of your body and to other people as well.

There are five different types of warts:

1. Common warts
2. Plantar warts
3. Flat warts
4. Filiform warts
5. Genital warts
