What are Warts ?

Warts are small non cancerous tumors found on the body that could be white clusters looking like cauliflower. Sometimes they look like little red bumps or flat circular bumps. Many wart strains can occur on a person. Warts are not painful. Warts are caused by the HPV (human papillomavirus ) virus. Warts are more cylindrical and have a different texture compared to skin tags. Warts often affect just one part of the body like hands or feet or neck without spreading over time to other areas.
