Warts grow on the skin as a result of a virus called "papilloma".
They are unpleasant to have because they can often hinder your day to day life.
Warts that are on the hands for example, can start to become sore and bleed when you work.
Furthermore, warts can be distressing due to the altering affect on your appearance.
They can damage your confidence and the way you feel about yourself because they look ugly and other people may act as though they are scared of touching you.
If you are so unfortunate as to suffer from them, you may be desperate to be rid of them and be glad to know that they can be treated by many different methods, including natural remedies.
This really is good news, particularly when they are situated in inconvenient places that cause irritation or intimate areas such as your genitals.
Some of the treatments can be obtained from local drug stores and supermarkets.
Alternatively you can visit your doctor and have them frozen or burnt off.
For many, this treatment is successful.
For others however, it does not work effectively and the warts keep returning.
However you can alternatively look at the natural creams and medicines which are available.
This is a very good option if no other remedies have worked permanently for you.
Natural treatments are tried and tested and have been passed down through the generations.
However it is always wise to seek guidance before attempting to use medicines at home.
