What Causes Itchy Warts On Hand?
Hi, I have been wondering about this for a while now I have these warts on my hand there not that big or noticeable but, I m trying to get rid of them in a natural way, my brother had them before I did and he told me they weren t contagious, but turns out I got them too, its not itchy or irritating I just don t really like them and I don t want them to spread even more than what it is now. I actually presently have four of them. Could you give me some suggestions on how to get rid of them preferably in a natural way - Thank- you.

Hello,
As a first line management you can apply over the counter available salicylate creams like duofilm as it will dissolve the lesion.
If lesion persists better to consult a dermatologist and get evaluated. In that case cauterisation or cryosurgery may be required.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
