10 Symptoms of HPV

4. Plantar Warts

The same strains of HPV that cause common warts will create plantar warts as well. However, these tend to occur in places that undergo continued stress and pressure such as the balls of the feet or heels. They are hard and grainy in appearance. Given the site of occurrence, plantar warts may also become painful in most instances. If they are not painful, however, they may go unnoticed since they are present in less conspicuous locations of the body.
