Warts Specialists FAQ in Rocky Mount, NC

Will skin grow back after wart removal?

First, the wart may not have been entirely removed with the original wart treatment option, and it may continue growing. Second, if an incision was made to remove the wart, the incision may become re-infected with HPV, thus causing the growth of a new wart.

Can a wart be cancerous?

Warts are common skin growths. They are not cancer. And they don’t turn into cancer. They are caused by a virus called human papillomavirus (HPV).

Can your immune system get rid of warts?

Warts are almost always harmless for people with a healthy immune system. The body’s immune system often manages to fight the viruses over time, and the warts then disappear on their own.

Can warts spread in bed?

Common warts are not very infectious with intact skin, but can be passed by people from sharing bedding, towels or when people pick at their warts, bite their nails and do not properly wash their hands.

Can touching warts spread them?

Warts can spread from one part of your body to another, similarly to person-to-person spread. If you pick at, touch, or scratch a wart on one part of your body, then do the same to another body part, the warts can spread to the second body part.

When should I be worried about a wart?

Warts are usually harmless. In most cases, they go away on their own within months or years. But if they spread or cause pain, or if you don’t like the way they look, you may want to treat them.

How painful is wart removal?

Is wart excision painful? The procedure itself is painless because of the numbing medication, but the site will feel tender for a couple of weeks. You may need pain medications after your session.

Do warts go away if left untreated?

Most warts will persist for one to two years if they are left untreated. Eventually, the body will recognize the virus and fight it off, causing the wart to disappear. While they remain, however, warts can spread very easily when people pick at them or when they are on the hands, feet or face.

When should I see a dermatologist for warts?

In adults, warts may not disappear as easily or as quickly as they do in children. Although most warts are harmless, dermatologists do treat them. You should see a dermatologist if you cannot get rid of the warts, the warts hurt, or you have many warts.

Can HPV warts come back after 10 years?

Once treated, a wart may eventually come back, as HPV is a lifelong virus. However, 70-80% of people who have had a genital wart treatment will not have a recurrence.

How long are HPV warts contagious?

It’s hard to know when people are no longer contagious, because there’s no blood test that looks for HPV. Most of the time, HPV is gone within 2 years of when someone was infected.

Can I have warts but not HPV?

Can you have genital warts without having HPV? No, while not all strains of HPV cause genital warts, all genital warts are caused by some strain of HPV. However, some people mistake moles, skin tags, or other sores for warts. It’s best to have a healthcare provider look at them to know for sure.

How to avoid getting warts?

Avoid touching someone’s wart. Make sure that everyone in your home has their own towels, washcloths, razors, nail clippers, socks, and other personal items. Clean and cover cuts and scrapes. Wash your hands often. Prevent dry, cracked skin.
