Warts


What is it?


Warts are a skin lesion frequently seen on the feet (and hands). They are caused by a viral infection. If left untreated, warts can spread to other parts of the body or to those around you.



Symptoms:


  • Warts may be flat or raised
  • They may be painful, but not always
  • Often appear with red, brown or black spots in them, but not always


Treatment:


  • Every suspicious lesion should be examined carefully
  • We use medication to remove warts. This process allows the wart to be treated with minimal to no pain
