Plantar Warts Overview. Warts are caused by an infection of the skin by human papillomavirus (HPV), which is the most common viral infection of the skin. Plantar warts grow on the plantar surface or the sole of the foot. They can be found anywhere in this area but tend to produce symptoms in areas of pressure and friction.
Plantar warts are caused by a germ called human papillomavirus or HPV. HPV can enter the skin through cuts or scratches on the plantar area (bottom) of the foot. The virus infects the skin and causes some of the skin cells to grow too fast.This thick overgrowth of skin cells makes a plantar wart. Picking or scratching the wart may cause the virus to spread.PV can enter the skin through cuts or scratches on the plantar area (bottom) of the foot.
