A member asked:

Help plz! can plantar warts cause a slight pit or hole in the bottom of your foot?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Good question.: warts are abnormal growths that occur within the outer layers of the skin. They protrude out on non weight bearing areas and are hard and indent the skin on weight bearing areas. Pits or holes can be a sign of too much moisture in your feet.
