all your answers are good but im not sure who to belive. is someone a like nurse or doctor that they could say for sure that they know it is contagious or not bc ive got like 1/2 of the people saying it is and the other half saying it isnt and i want to know for sure it isnt bc yea that could be a bad thing

No, they are not. Just a virus.

Um. Kinda.
See, warts are in a way, contagious. But I *THINK* that when it's being treated, altho still there, it's not.
As my hubby used to get them on his hands and fingers, and well, we did that so-mentioned deed and I never had a problem. But he always treated them.
So...just make sure they be treating them and call an RN at the hospital and talk to her/him if you are still unsure.

Oh yeah. That is how you can get planters warts on your feet---from walking bare foot where someone with a wart walked

Only certain types like genital herpes, I don't think you can catch anything from warts on fingers.

yes, Warts are passed from person to person, directly and indirectly.
