Plantar Warts 

Plantar Wart

Plantar warts are noncancerous skin growths on the soles of your feet caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV), which enters your body through tiny cuts and breaks in your skin. Warts are one of numerous soft tissue conditions of the foot that can be rather painful. Plantar warts appear on the soles of the feet, are often thick and coarse, grow inward, and can be rather painful and bothersome.

They can develop anyplace on the skin, but technically only those on the sole are correctly called plantar warts. Most plantar warts aren't a major health concern to people, but they may be bothersome or very painful, and they can be defiant to therapy. You may require to see your physician to remove plantar warts.

Plantar warts are common to all ages groups, appearing frequently in children between the ages of 12-16. Plantar warts are awkward to remedy because of the weight placed on the feet.

These type of warts are also very resistant to treatment. The warts may be prevented by practicing good foot care. Plantar warts commonly go away on their own, but most people would rather treat them than wait for them to fade on their own.
