What Are Warts?
Warts are small lumps that grow on the skin of the hands and feet. Though non-cancerous, warts are caused by infection of a virus. Most warts are round or oval-shaped. They have a hard, scaly surface. They can develop as a single wart or in clusters. Warts are found in people with a weakened immune system.
Are Warts Contagious?
Warts are contagious because human papilloma virus (HPV) is contagious. Warts are caused by certain strains of HPV. So warts can spread through direct and indirect contact. Direct contact means touching someone’s wart or skin-to-skin contact. Indirect contact is using or sharing objects such as towels or razors with a person who has warts or HPV.
Warts Removal Treatments in Malaysia
The doctors may suggest one of the following treatments based on the location of your warts, your symptoms and your preferences. These methods are best used in combination with home treatments such as salicylic acid.
Prescription
Stronger wart medications with salicylic acid work by removing layers of a wart a little by little at a time. Studies show that salicylic acid is more effective when combined with freezing (cryotherapy).
Cryotherapy
Freezing therapy done at a doctor’s office involves applying liquid nitrogen to your wart. Freezing works by causing a blister to form under and around your wart. Within a week, the dead tissue will fall off. This method will also stimulate your immune system to fight the viral warts. You may need repeat treatments for the best result.
Laser Treatment
Pulsed-dye laser treatment burns (cauterizes) tiny blood vessels. The laser light heats and destroys the tiny blood vessels inside the wart. In this way, the blood supply is cut off, killing the wart. Finally, the wart falls off.
Minor Surgery
The doctor can cut away the wart but this may leave a scar in the treated area.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Can I remove my own warts?
You can. Apply salicyclic acid which you can get from the pharmacy but be sure to soak the wart in warm water before applyig the acid.
What is the main cause of warts?
Warts are caused by certain strains of the human papilloma virus (HPV). HPV causes too much keratin (a hard protein) to develop in the top skin layer. This extra keratin produces the rough, hard texture of a wart.
Is it alright to leave warts untreated?
Warts are usually harmless. They may go away within months or years. But if they spread or cause pain and discomfort, you may want to get them removed.
How do I stop getting warts?
To prevent warts, avoid contact with a wart on another person’s skin. Wear socks or shoes to prevent getting plantar warts. Wash the nail clipper/file that you use to file your wart so that you don’t spread the virus to other parts of your body.
Why did I start getting warts?
The virus usually spreads through breaks in your skin. Biting your nails can cause warts to spread on your finger tips and around your nails.
