How are warts and pimples different?

Dr. David Hettinger answered

Specializes in Podiatry

Skin line disruption: Along with the other answers, there is obvious disruption of the normal skin lines of the feet when encountering a wart. Callouses will have skin lines running through them, but warts will have a 'stop-and-start'; distribution to the skin lines.
