I heard that if you keep biting your nails or something like that then you get warts. If it does sound weird then not my fault haha i heard it on the net. And i also heard that don't touch it because it has an virus or something so don't touch it it might spread. It also says wash your hands with hot water, but NOT too hot because you might burn yourself.

warts are caused by a family member of HPV virus. It is transmittable from person to person when that person touches the warts. It is also possible to get warts from using towels or other objects that were used by a person who has warts. But don't be alarmed if you only get them on your fingers because they can go away on their own (takes a long time though). You can buy salicylic acid over the counter or Dr. Scholl's Freeze-Away (ask your pharmacist) to apply on warts and they will decrease the irritation and increase healing time. Good luck!

eww...dont put potatoes, ur fingers will start to smell like rot. u can get warts by touching other people who have them. any store has medication for warts. if u want to get rid of them fast, try the kind that freezes them off.

Did you touch any toads? I don't know how you got them. Get a raw potatoe and cut slices and put them on the warts with band-aids while you sleep, they'll go away in about a week or so.

You need to make an appointment to see a Dermatologist they can remove and treat you the proper way.

Normally, I dont have any proper medicines, but if you want wait until you can pop it or freeze it with this one cream or numb it and use a cold clean needle to pop it.

the over the counter medicine is not strong enough. you will have to see a doctor to have them removed.
