How to warts on the foot spread?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Contact: The warts spread by contact, friction sweating along the surface of the skin. Early treatemt is preferred because extensive warts are much harder to treat.

Direct contact: Usually via direct contact, although it is actually quite infrequent to see 2 members of the same family get them in short proximity to each other. I think there are other mechanisms for spread involved.

I have a widespread plantar wart on left foot that spread to right foot a little bit. Been there for over ten years and nothing takes it away or treats it. I was told by a dermatologist that zinc will help, but it will never go away. Is this true?
