Experts believe that the appearance of warts is caused by the presence of HPV - the human papillomavirus in the body. It is transmitted through contact and sex.
If a person has good immunity, the virus will pass through. But in a weakened organism, it multiplies rapidly, as a result of which papillomas and warts appear on the skin (especially on the face, arms, lower legs and on the neck).
The lesion may not be removed, but it is full of enlargement and spreads over the body.
