It can form especially on the knees, elbows and feet (toes), but more often on the hands and fingers. Rarely painful (except when it is located near or under the nails), it can however be embarrassing.

Advice from your pharmacy on warts

Warts are benign growths of the epidermis covered with a horny layer which gives them a rough texture. They are caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV). There are different types of warts but the most common are common warts and plantar warts.

  • Common warts can be recognized by their rough texture and their “cauliflower” appearance. They most often appear on the hands and feet.
  • Plantar warts are identical to common warts but only develop on the sole of the foot. They interrupt the drawing of the footprint because the lines of the skin do not draw on the surface of the warts. Plantar warts are usually softer, flat and painful due to the pressure exerted while walking.

Warts affect 7-10% of the population. They particularly affect children and adolescents. Warts are very contagious and are more common in people with weakened immune systems. Warts are spread from person to person or from part to body of the same person, through direct contact with the infected area. More than 50% of warts disappear spontaneously in two years. However, they are unsightly and can be painful in the case of plantar warts. This is why patients often choose to treat these warts rather than waiting for them to go away on their own.

GLOSSARY (summary)


allergy
Skin reaction (itching, pimples, swelling) or general discomfort occurring after contact with a particular substance, use of a medication, or ingestion of food. The main forms of allergy are eczema, urticaria, asthma, angioedema and allergic shock (anaphylactic shock). Food allergy can also result in digestive disorders.


arteritis
Arterial disease favored by smoking and most often localized to the legs. It is characterized by a thickening of the arterial walls which interferes with blood circulation and causes pain during walking (intermittent claudication). Lower limb arteritis increases the risk of myocardial infarction and requires medication. At an advanced stage, it can be treated surgically.
Synonym: Occlusive arteriopathy of the lower limbs.


diabetes
A general term for diseases that result in the emission of abundant urine and intense thirst. The word diabetes, used alone, is generally related to diabetes mellitus, which corresponds to a disruption in the regulation of the body's sugars by insulin. It results in increased sugar (glucose) in the blood and its possible presence in the urine. There are two types of diabetes mellitus: Type 1 or insulin-dependent diabetes, which requires insulin injections, and type 2 or non-insulin dependent diabetes, which can initially be treated with oral antidiabetics.


salicylates
A family of drugs, the best known of which is acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin).


virus
A microscopic organism that penetrates the cells of the host, where it reproduces. Much smaller than bacteria, viruses are insensitive to antibiotics. They can sometimes be destroyed by antiviral substances.
