Understanding Common Warts -- Symptoms - WebMD

What Are the Symptoms of Common Warts?

Here are some ways to recognize common warts:

  • Common warts are small, hard, rough lumps that are round and elevated. They usually appear on hands and fingers and may be flesh-colored, white, or pink.
  • Filiform warts are thin and thread-like. They commonly appear on the face and neck.
  • Flat warts appear in groups of up to several hundred, usually on the face, neck, chest, knees, hands, wrists, or forearms. They are slightly raised and have smooth, flat, or rounded tops.
  • Plantar warts are firm lumps on the soles of the feet. Unlike a corn or callus, they have tiny black dots, which are small, clotted blood vessels.
  • Periungual warts are rough, irregular, and elevated. They appear at the edges of fingernails and toenails and may extend under the nails, causing pain and irregular nail growth.

Call Your Doctor About Warts if:

  • Over-the-counter remedies don't work
  • You are a woman and develop genital warts, which in rare cases can be associated with cervical cancer
  • You are older than age 60 and discover what looks like a wart. It may instead be a symptom of a more serious skin condition, such as skin cancer
  • Warts multiply and spread, causing embarrassment or discomfort
  • You notice a change in a wart's color or size; this could indicate that the lesion is not a wart but a skin cancer.

Types of skin cancer and how to spot them - Jersey's Best

If you learn only one thing about skin cancer, it should be this word: melanoma.   Melanoma is the equivalent of a budding terrorist hanging out with a bunch of high school pranksters. None of them is up to any good — but one of them is really, really dangerous.   If you suspect you may have melanoma, don't assume it will be like that growth your cousin had on his cheek from golfing so much. Just because he delayed seeing a doctor until he returned from summer vacation doesn't mean you have that luxury of time as well. You probably don't.   Melanoma is a five-alarm problem that demands immediate attention. Not a head-to-the-emergency-room crisis, but one necessitating an appointment with a doctor sooner rather than later.  When detected early, the five -year survival rate for melanoma is 99%.   The paradox of skin cancer is that the types causing the most cases result in the fewest number of deaths. Yet melanoma, which is far less common, accounts for the biggest numb...
