What's the difference between a wart and a wart scar. not sure if i have warts or scars from warts. ?

DIfficult to tell: It can be difficult to tell the difference between an active wart and a scar from treatment. If black dots are present (which are the tips of dilated blood vessels) the wart virus is probably active.
