Warts/Moles/Tag

Warts are rough growths caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV), moles are clusters of melanocytes that appear as brown or black spots on the skin, and skin tags are benign growths that protrude from the skin’s surface. Warts can vary in type and may require treatment if they cause discomfort. Moles are usually harmless but should be monitored for any changes that could indicate skin cancer. Skin tags are generally painless but may be removed if they become irritated or for cosmetic reasons. It’s essential to have any skin growths evaluated by a healthcare professional to ensure proper diagnosis and treatment.
