Do i have a weak immune system if i tend t get warts?

No: Warts do not mean you have a weak immune system. Warts are common and your body has not developed resistance to the wart virus. It has resistance to internal infections such as strep , flu. Eyc.

Not really: Warts are caused by a virus and get in thru opening in the skin.
