Warts on the body are the same as vurruca's on your feet... The best natural thing for warts 'or' verrucas? is lemon..cut a lemon and rub the wart with the juice from it...it works!!....You have to keep applying it, warts have roots, once you've removed the root the warts gone...Pure essential lemon oil is good too.
You could either have caught it from someone else (very contageous) or sometimes they appear on their own (times of stress etc)
Other than that you can bazooka that verruca!
Good luck..

Get them removed or use a topical with salicylic acid. it will remove that.
Warts occur because of a virus called Human Papilloma Virus (HPV). Medical science hasn't yet produced a medicine that can be applied topically or taken orally to kill this virus and remove warts. The only method is to physically remove the warts or teach the body's immune system that warts are foreign or diseased bodies and should be destroyed. In children, most of the warts may go away without any treatment, but the same is difficult in adults. If you leave the wart without treatment, there are two possibilities- either it will go away or new warts will appear. You should talk about this with your doctor and decide. You should try to avoid getting infection from public places such as showers or locker rooms by wearing footwear.
Warts Removal:
Doctors use many methods to remove warts. Using chemicals to dissolve the wart slowly is one of the popular methods. In this case, chemicals such as salicylic acid are used. Your doctor may also treat and remove the warts with nitrogen freezing. In this method, the doctor applies liquid nitrogen which has very low temperature, on the warts and that dissolves the wart slowly. This treatment may be repeated considering how many warts you have. The other method is removing warts using electric surgery. Some other methods such as injections of bleomycin may be used, but they are not common. Laser is also used to effectively remove the warts. You should talk about all the possible treatments with your doctor. Even after removing the wart, there is no assurance that another will not come up. The only way is to remove the new growth as soon as possible.

Get a wart removal liquid, that makes the wart soft and kills the wart. then put duck tape right over the wart and the medicine. That will pull of the wart as it gets better. Don't worry it doesn't help. It only hurts when the wart id close to going away. That is because it is close to the point it came from and it is the real wart. i know because I got them on my feet from Karate. You can also go to the doctor and they can freeze it off but it hurts more than the way I mentioned. They used to burn them of which I don't think they do it anymore.

A wart is generally a small, rough, cauliflower-like tumour, typically on hands and feet. Warts are common, and are caused by a viral infection, specifically by the Human Papilloma Virus (HPV). They typically disappear after a few months but can last for years and can recur. A few Papilloma viruses are known to cause cancer. Certain types of warts, depending on location and cause, can be contagious from region to region, but are not transferable between species.

There are soo many different creams, pills, and medications you can take, truth is that it's basically impossible to get rid of them. They usually come on either as a bacterial infection or just plain dirt, in order to get rid of them you should try taking garlic pills, drink a glass of water in the morning, and put on some wart medications, cover with a Band-aid after you put it on. and hope it goes away

I had a wart on my hand for two years and the stuff the Dr's gave me didn't work, but someone told me to use the milk out of chick weed, they were gone in two weeks.
Here's a link for you to look at a picture of chick weed so you know which one it is if you decide to try it.
