If you currently have a wart or a number of warts on your body, there is a good chance that you already know exactly what they are or how they are caused. Warts have been known to be caused by a particular strain of the Human Papilloma Virus, otherwise known as HPV. Warts, in most cases, are completely harmless. This is because they are considered benign skin growths. Benign is another word that is used to describe non-cancerous skin growths.
