# Warts are caused by a virus which is passed by contact.
2. Warts are caused by the HPV, human papilloma virus. There are a hundred or so types of HPV and they do different things. Some types will cause common warts, some will cause genital warts and still other will make the person develop other kinds of warts. The virus spreads by contact. Common warts that tend to grow on the hands and fingers spread from skin to skin contact. These spread often through things like handshakes. Many of the other types are considered sexually transmitted diseases and spread from unprotected sex.
Warts spread easily and quickly. If you have a wart, be careful not to pick at it or touch it except to clean it or apply treatments. If you do contact it make sure you wash your hands carefully. Touching a wart and then touching another area of skin on your body or someone else's body can lead to the spreading of the virus. The faster that you can treat the warts you have the faster they will go away and the less chance there is of spreading. Some warts will however disappear on their own if left alone, but this does increase the chances of transference to other people and other body parts.
When it comes to the warts of the genitals, these can be prevented from spreading. Though lots of people are not pleased with the idea of abstinence this is the only way to guarantee that the HPV does not spread. Unprotected sex of all kinds is the most common way the virus spread from person to person. There is of course the use of a condom which can help and be somewhat effective but does not guarantee the prevention of transfer. Be safe and use your head, and you will live a long and disease free life.
