Common warts are painless, hard lumps with an irregular surface, most commonly found on the skin of the hands, around the nails, or underneath the nails. They can also frequently appear on the face, scalp, and genital zone.
These lesions are often seen in children and adolescents. Initially, they may present as single lumps, which can spread locally or to other areas over time.
They are similar in color to the skin, and sometimes grayish, but in some cases, their color is darker, which makes them resemble cancerous changes. They last from several months to even several years.
