What is Warts?
Warts are benign growths on the skin or mucous membranes that are usually painless and harmless.
However, they may look unsightly and cause cosmetic problems, especially when they occur on exposed parts of the body. Occasionally, they may cause some pain and discomfort.
- Warts are caused by the Human Papillomavirus (HPV).
- They are contagious and can spread from one person to another as well as from one part to another in the same person.
- Genital HPV infection is one the most common sexually transmitted infections in the world.
- HPV is so common that nearly all sexually active men and women will get it at some point in their lives.
- Warts can be treated in various ways; however, with most treatments, they tend to recur soon.
- Homeopathic treatment is perhaps the only mode of treatment that significantly reduces the tendency for recurrence of warts. View causes of Warts.

A wart is a type of solid skin growth caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV). It is a contagious disease and usually transmitted by close physical skin-to-skin contact.
However, one can catch it indirectly through broken skin in a swimming pool, changing room, by sharing towels and toiletries with an infected person. Genital Warts can be transmitted during sexual intercourse with an infected partner.
- You can spread the wart viruses from one part of your body to another through your own contact.
- Warts can grow anywhere on the body. They can be very annoying and unsightly.
- Usually warts are painless, but they may itch or even bleed occasionally.
- Wart can occur in people of all ages, but occur most commonly in children and young adults.
- Every person exposed to HPV will not get wart. Some people are more likely to get warts than others.

Symptoms of Warts depend on their various types:
They usually grow on the fingers, around nails and on the backs of hands. These are also called "seed" warts because the blood vessels within them produce black dots that look like seeds.
They are usually found on the soles (plantar area) of the feet. When they grow in clusters they are called as "mosaic warts". This is one of the chief features amongst symptoms of warts on feet. The pressure of walking flattens them and pushes them back into the skin.
Plantar warts can be painful, feeling like a stone in the shoe. One can catch the infection while walking barefoot on dirty infected surfaces.
They are comparatively smaller and smoother than other warts. They can occur anywhere, but are most commonly found on the face in children. In adults they are more commonly found in the beard area in men and on the legs in women. Irritation from shaving may be one of the reasons for this. These are important symptoms of warts of this type.
Genital warts or venereal warts are the most common signs of genital HPV infection.
In women, they occur on the outside and inside of the vagina, on the cervix of uterus, or around anus.
In men, they are less common and usually seen on the tip of the penis. They may also be found on the shaft of the penis, the scrotum, or the anus.
They are highly contagious and spread during oral, genital, or anal sex with an infected partner. About two-thirds of people who have sexual contact with a partner with genital warts will themselves develop these warts within three months. These are chief symptoms of warts of genital type.
The causes of Warts are various types of human papillomavirus (HPV). Some types of HPV are also known to cause cancer of the cervix (mouth of the uterus).
HPV infects the top layer of skin, usually entering the body in an area of broken skin. The virus causes the top layer of skin to grow rapidly, forming a wart. It can then spread from an existing wart to other areas of the body, causing more warts.
- Poor self-confidence: Presence of Warts, especially large and unsightly ones on the face, neck or other exposed areas of the body may affect one's confidence and self-esteem.
- Pain and irritation: These features may develop in the region around the warts
- Malignant changes: Although very rare in healthy individuals, there is a slightly increased risk in people with impaired immune systems.
- Cervical Cancer: Some strains of HPV are the main cause of cervical cancer (mouth of the uterus). They can also cause some pre-cancerous changes to the cells of the cervix (dysplasia).
- Other Cancers: Some types of HPV may cause cancer of the vulva (external female genitals), penis, or anus.
- The approach of treatment for Warts is holistic and comprehensive. It is "preventive" as well as "curative"
- The primary aim of homeopathic treatment for warts is to maintain a high level of "immunity" to prevent the occurrence of warts.
- Many people tend to resist the growth of warts despite exposure to the virus. However, many others tend to catch the infection with the slightest exposure. The rate of spread of infection is also high in such individuals. Homeopathic treatment for warts is targeted at reducing and eliminating this tendency from its roots.
- Homeopathic treatment for warts greatly reduces the probability of recurrence of warts after they have been treated.

- Avoid biting your fingernails: Don't bite your fingernails if there are Warts near your fingernails. Warts tend to occur more often in broken skin. Nibbling the skin around the fingernails opens the door for the entry of the virus.
- Grooming with care: To avoid the spread of the virus, don't brush, comb, clip or shave in the areas that have warts. Wash your hands carefully after touching the wart or around it.
- Keep personal use tools separate: Don't use the same file or nail clipper or pumice stone on your warts as you use on your healthy nails. Also, such tools must not be used by anyone else.
- Avoid picking at warts: Picking at the wart may spread the virus. Cover the wart with an adhesive bandage to prevent picking.
- Keep hands dry: Warts thrive in moist environment. Therefore, keeping hands dry will reduce the chances of occurrence of the warts.
- Eat high-folate foods: A study by the University of Maryland showed that female patients infected with HPV had very low levels of folate and therefore were at higher risk of getting cervical dysplasia. Asparagus, strawberries, oranges and cantaloupe are all good sources of folate.
- Consume foods rich in beta-carotene: Studies have shown that high beta-carotene levels reduce the risk of acquiring HPV infections by up to half. Foods high in beta-carotene include carrots, broccoli, pumpkin and tomatoes.
- Foods high in antioxidants such as blueberries, cherries and green tea are known to prevent spread of Warts to various parts of the body. Add antioxidants to your diet.
