Answer:

ANSWER: Warts are caused by the human papillomavirus. They are indeed contagious, very common and can be difficult to get rid of. The customary first-line treatment is salicylic acid cream, found at your local drugstore or pharmacy. The treatment works much better if you remove the dead skin with a pumice stone or emery board.
