Genital
Warts Information
Warts
are an age-old problem that can
be a source of great concern
and embarrassment. Warts are
benign skin tumors produced by
infection with any of several
types of human papillomavirus
(HPV). This infection is passed
from one person to
another.
Common
warts (skin-colored, hard bumps
often found on fingers) and
flat warts (small, flat spots
most frequently found on the
backs of hands and the lower
legs) are generally transmitted
by casual contact and are
difficult to
prevent.
Plantar
warts (on the bottom, or
plantar surface, of the foot)
can be partially avoided by
wearing shoes in public places
or anywhere people with plantar
warts may have walked
barefoot.
Anogenital
warts (condylomata acuminata)
are most often sexually
transmitted, although children
can contract them during birth
through an infected birth canal
or from the hands of
caregivers. Adults can minimize
the risk of infection with
genital HPV by using a condom,
although abstinence is the most
reliable means of avoiding
genital wart infection.
