Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
Cutaneous and genital warts are common dermatological conditions caused by Human Papilloma Virus. Although it is a benign condition it causes disfigurement, has tendency to collect, can be transmitted to others, this makes adequate and timely treatment important, while many warts are resolve spontaneously over several years, most patients seek treatment because the warts are unsightly and often tender or painful.
