Verrucae and warts are both types of growths on the skin caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV). Here’s a brief explanation of each:
Commonly Known As: Plantar warts.
Found on the soles of the feet.
They may appear flat and can be painful due to pressure when walking. Verrucae often have a rough surface and may have small black dots, which are tiny blood vessels.
Common Types: There are several types of warts, including common warts and flat warts.
Warts can vary in appearance. They often have a rough texture and are raised above the skin. Common warts tend to be round with a rough surface, while flat warts are smoother and smaller.
