HOMOEOPATHIC REMEDIES FOR WARTS

Warts are small, grainy skin growths that occur most often on your fingers or hands. Rough to the touch, warts also often feature a pattern of tiny black dots — sometimes called seeds — which are small, clotted blood vessels.

Common warts are caused by a virus and are transmitted by touch. Children and young adults are more likely to develop common warts, as are people who have weakened immune systems. Warts usually disappear on their own, but many people choose to remove them because they find them bothersome or embarrassing.

Causes-- Common warts are caused by an infection with the human papillomavirus (HPV). More than 100 types of HPV exist, but only a few cause warts on your hands. Other types of HPV are more likely to cause warts on your feet and other areas of your skin and mucous membranes. Most types of HPV cause relatively harmless conditions such as common warts, while others may cause serious disease such as cancer of the cervix.

You can get warts from skin-to-skin contact with people who have warts. If you have warts, you can spread the virus to other places on your own body. You can also get the wart virus indirectly by touching something that another person's wart touched, such as a towel or exercise equipment. The virus usually spreads through breaks in your skin, such as a hangnail or a scrape. Biting your nails also can cause warts to spread on your fingertips and around your nails.

Each person's immune system responds to the HPV virus differently, so not everyone who comes in contact with HPV develops warts.

Symptoms-  Warts usually occur on your fingers or hands and may be:

·         Small, fleshy, grainy bumps

·         Flesh-colored, white, pink or tan

·         Rough to the touch

Sprinkled with black pinpoints, which are small, clotted blood vessels

Risk factors-- People at higher risk of developing common warts include:

·         Children and young adults

·         People with weakened immune systems, such as those with HIV/AIDS or people who've had organ transplants
