Could the warts on my toes be passed on to my baby?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
No: The virus causing the warts on your toes remains in that location. I supose you could pass the virus if you spent time messing with the warts with your fingers & then touched baby with contaminated fingers. Leaving them alone & deciding to touch baby only after washing your hands can avoid a bunch of different germs including this one.

Yes: Warts are caused by a virus and anyone can catch them if they come in direct contact with the wart.
