Black dots in a wart typically indicate the presence of tiny blood vessels that have clotted, which can occur as the wart dies or begins to resolve. While the appearance of black dots suggests that the wart is undergoing changes, it doesn't necessarily mean the wart is completely dead. It's important to monitor the wart for other signs of fading or changes in texture, and consult a healthcare professional for proper evaluation and treatment options.

What are the black dots under a verruca?
The black dots under a verruca are typically small clotted blood vessels or capillaries. These occur as the virus that causes the verruca (a type of wart) prompts the growth of the skin cells, leading to the formation of the wart. The dark spots can also be attributed to the pressure and trauma from walking, which may damage these tiny blood vessels. Overall, these dots are a common characteristic of verrucas and can help differentiate them from other skin growths.
What is under a wart?
Under a wart, there is typically a thickened area of skin formed by an overgrowth of keratin, the protein that makes up the outer layer of the skin. Warts are caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV) and can contain small blood vessels that may appear as tiny black dots. Beneath the wart, the skin may show signs of irritation or inflammation due to the virus's effect on the skin cells. Overall, warts are benign growths that usually do not involve deeper layers of tissue.

How do you distinguish between a wart and a skin cancer?
Most can be distinguished by appearance. However, there are always exceptions. Warts have a very typical appearance (google image search) with a rough surface and often little black dots inside (thrombosed or clotted capillaries). If it falls off, it was probably a wart, but since warts can last years, that's not a good rule of thumb. If in doubt, show your doctor. The safest answer if he/she isn't sure is to do a biopsy!
Is verrucous keratosis a type of wart?
As a pathologist, I've seen the term used for lesions that appear wart-like, but do not have all of the features needed for a definitive diagnosis of a wart. The histological differential diagnosis includes verruca vulgaris (wart), seborrheic keratosis, prurigo nodularis, and lichen simplex chronicus. The important thing to keep in mind is that these lesions are all benign.

A family physician or podiatrist may scrape skin off what seems to be a callus, but may actually be a wart. If the lesion is a wart, it will bleed. A callus will not bleed, but will reveal another layer of dead skin.
