Can you get a plantar wart on your finger?

Answer 1

Plantar warts are, by definition, warts on the bottom of your foot or toes. A wart appearing anywhere else on the body is not a plantar wart, even if it's caused by one of the strains of the human papillomavirus that's generally associated with plantar warts.

(If you're asking if it's possible for the virus to spread from a plantar wart to other locations on the body: yes, that's possible. But it wouldn't be CALLED a plantar wart; if it appeared on the palm, for instance, it would be a palmar wart.)

Answer 2

No, finger warts are not caused by HPV.
No.
No. Common warts (the kind that are typically seen on the hands) and genital warts are caused by two completely different strains of the Human Papilloma Virus (HPV).

Answer 4

Genital herpes are caused by herpes simplex virus, and warts are caused by human papillomavirus. Warts do not cause herpes.

Answer 5

The types of HPV that cause genital and finger warts are different. You aren't likely to get a wart on your finger from someone with genital warts.
