Causes

На появление бородавок оказывает влияние вирус papillomas of a person who penetrates through various microcracks, scratches, wounds or abrasions. If the virus has penetrated inside, then it either subsides for a certain period, falls into a "hibernation", or actively reproduces. The incubation period for HPV is 2-6 months.

The most common infection occurs in public places: swimming pool, transport, staircase, school, gym and so on.

The appearance of vulgar warts is affected by the following factors:

  • Violation of the integrity of the skin, that is, the presence of wounds, cracks, abrasions, etc.
  • Excessive dryness of the dermis when the epidermis begins to crack.
  • Reduced reactivity.
