A member asked:
Are plantar warts on feet and warts on hands spread via surfaces? how careful do i need to be around someone who has plantar warts on feet that walks around barefoot and will not wear socks?

Plantar warts are likely triggered by contact with the virus on floor surfaces/in the shower/et6c. The time between initial contact with the virus & detection of the wart makes an understanding of when & where it was acquired hard to know with certainty. I would just wear shoes around such a person & sanitize any shared shower stalls after their use.

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?
