What is the life cycle of a wart?

Warts are caused by a virus called human papillomavirus (HPV). The life cycle of a wart typically involves the virus entering the skin through a cut or abrasion. The virus then infects the skin cells, causing them to grow rapidly and form a raised bump known as a wart. Over time, the body's immune system may recognize the virus and attack it, leading to the wart eventually disappearing on its own. In some cases, warts may persist and require treatment to remove them.

What is the life cycle of a wart and how does it progress from its initial formation to eventual disappearance?

Warts are caused by a virus called HPV. The life cycle of a wart begins with the virus entering the skin through a cut or abrasion. The virus then causes the skin cells to grow rapidly, forming a raised bump. Over time, the wart may grow larger and develop a rough texture. The body's immune system may eventually recognize the virus and attack it, causing the wart to shrink and disappear. This process can take several months to years, depending on the individual's immune response.


When a plantar wart comes out will it bleed?

Yes, the wart virus taps into the capillaries. So if you cut them deep enough, you probably will see a small bit of blood. This is the capillary supplying blood to the wart virus. I DO NOT RECOMMEND CUTTING THEM OFF YOURSELF! You could spread the wart virus, and re-infect yourself!
