Warts are tiny, firm bumps on the skin that are commonly found in school-aged children (rarely in children younger than 2 years). While warts will go away on their own without treatment, often kids are embarrassed by them, they spread or the warts become painful due to being bumped, picked at, or rubbed against. If this is the case, you can make an appointment to see a CHC pediatrician to explore other options in removing the wart/s.
Note: If your child develops a wart on the face or genitals, please make call to schedule an appointment immediately.
