Warts and all Part 1 (Teacher: Michael)

The wart virus can attack almost anywhere on body, including fingers, face, hand and knees, especially where there has been some injury.

Warts on face have often been transferred from fingers by scratching. Patients who bite their nails can also get warts around nail-folds at side and across quick.

Warts are infectious and spread by contact with virus, which gets into tiny breaks in skin.

Everyone is liable to get them but most vulnerable are young people, which is why most sufferers are still at school.

But adults are still at risk. Even Romans knew of one type of wart which was spread by sexual contact - genital warts. papillomavirus causing them has been linked with cancer of cervix in women, but both partners must be treated. woman should also continue to have regular smear tests.

The reason we get fewer warts as we get older is because we develop immunity against wart virus. Once that immunity is acquired, all warts disappear as if by magic.

Over years, magic has been used to "cure" them. Wart charming is still practised in some parts of country and it's easy to see why it is so successful - wart will go eventually in any case.
