A member asked:

Can holding a celll phone too much cause skin problems. i have what looks like warts or blisters starting to form on my fingers where my cell rests.

? Calluses: If you use your phone excessively and there is repeated friction or repeated minor trauma from use, you may develop calluses at the site. Cells phones per se are not known to cause warts.
