Overview

Warts are benign growths caused by human papillomavirus (HPV) infection. They commonly appear on the hands, feet, and other areas characterized by rough, raised bumps. Warts can vary in size and shape and may be painful or itchy. The virus is highly contagious and spreads through direct contact with infected skin or surfaces. While generally harmless, warts can be unsightly and bothersome. At Seaside Dermatology, we offer effective treatments to remove warts and prevent their recurrence, helping you achieve smooth, clear skin.

Common Symptoms:

  • Small, rough bumps on the skin
  • Raised, uneven surface with a hardened appearance
  • Presence of black dots or tiny blood vessels within the wart
  • Itching or tenderness in the affected area
  • Pain or discomfort, especially when pressure is applied
  • Occurrence in clusters or as a single growth

Your Personalized Treatment Plan

At Seaside Dermatology, we understand that each wart case is unique. We start by conducting a thorough evaluation of your warts, including their type, size, and location. Based on this assessment, we develop a treatment plan specifically for you. This may involve methods such as cryotherapy, laser therapy, or topical treatments, chosen to match your individual needs. Our goal is to remove your warts and minimize the risk of recurrence, ensuring you achieve the best possible outcome for clear, healthy skin.

Possible Causes:

  • Infection with human papillomavirus (HPV)
  • Direct skin-to-skin contact with an infected person
  • Contact with surfaces contaminated by HPV, such as communal showers or pools
  • Weak immune system that is less effective at fighting off infections
  • Pre-existing skin conditions that make the skin more susceptible
  • Small cuts or abrasions that allow HPV entry into the skin
