Warts & Skin Tags - Explained
Warts are skin growths that are not cancerous and are brought about by HPV, which is short for human papillomavirus. They are usually found on the palms of the hands and soles of the feet, manifesting as rough, hard, raised nodules with a black spot in the center. Warts are easily transmitted from one person to another through touch or contact with objects that have come into contact with the virus.
Skin tags are non-cancerous, skin-colored, soft, and pendulous skin lesions. They usually occur in areas with skin creases such as the neck, armpits, under the breasts, or groin. Skin tags are benign but can be annoying and may cause irritation or embarrassment if they are in visible areas such as the neck or face.
Warts Removal
- Cryotherapy: This involves applying liquid nitrogen on the wart which makes it to form a blister and then peel off.
- Electrocautery: In this technique, an electrical current is applied to the wart tissue and as a result the wart tissue is burnt and removed.
- Laser Therapy: The wart is targeted with a laser beam which is used to eliminate it. This method is equally applicable for common warts as well as facial warts.
- Topical Medications: Wart can be treated using OTC or prescription creams, gels, or solutions that contain salicylic acid, podophyllin, or other similar substances that will help in the gradual removal of the wart.
Surgical Excision: For larger or stubborn warts, surgical removal under local anesthesia may be necessary.
Skin Tags Treatment
Surgical Excision: The skin tag is removed by cutting it off with the help of surgical scissors or a scalpel after the area has been anesthetized.
Cauterization: The skin tag is burned off using heat or electric current.
Cryotherapy: Similar to wart removal, liquid nitrogen is used to freeze and remove the skin tag
Ligation: A small band or thread is tied around the base of the skin tag, cutting off its blood supply and causing it to eventually fall off.

Frequently Asked questions
FAQ
Warts are caused by certain strains of the human papilloma virus (HPV), which affects the skin and mucosa, leading to an excess buildup of keratin in the epidermis.
While warts can often be permanently removed with treatment, they have the potential to return, particularly if not treated properly, depending on their type and severity.
