Warts and your Feet

Warts are caused by a virus that generally enters the body through small nicks or abrasions in the skin. Warts occurring on the soles of your feet are referred to as "plantar warts". Due to the amount of pressure that is put on the feet throughout the course of the day, plantar warts can become quite painful. Teenagers between the ages of 12-16 are most commonly infected by warts, but they can occur at any age. Warts are often contracted by walking barefoot on dirty surfaces or the ground. The viruses thrive in warm, moist environments like showers and swimming pools.
