Skin Conditions & Warts
Skin Condition & Warts in Chicago
Do you have a bump on your foot that won’t go away? Advanced Foot Care Center in Chicago can help residents with various skin conditions and warts. Caused by a virus entering your skin through small cuts or abrasions—many are invisible to the human eye. They tend to be hard with a flat surface and can be very painful. They can be contracted anywhere on the body, but the ones found on the feet are referred to as plantar warts. If left untreated, they may continue to spread to other body parts.
Wart Prevention
Warts are usually caused by walking barefoot on dirty surfaces or on areas where the virus can be contracted. In order to prevent getting them, you should:
- Avoid walking barefoot
- Change sock and shoes daily
- Keep feet dry and clean
- Do not ignore abnormal growths
- Visit Advance FootCare Center to schedule check-ups
