What could cause skin warts other than hpv?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Warts from HPV: The viruses that cause warts are in the human papillomavirus (hpv) family. There are many different subtypes of hpv that cause different types of warts in different locations of the body. As with other viral infections, warts may be transmitted from one individual to another. But it's important to know that most warts are not sexually transmitted.

Verruca: Warts or verruca vulgaris are caused by hpv. You may have another type of growth that is not a wart. For a clear diagnosis see a dermatologist.
