Warts and Ayurveda - simple to manage and treat.

In the modern system of medicine, warts are defined as small, fleshy, or hard bumps on the skin or mucous membranes caused by human papillomavirus. Warts are caused by various strains of human papillomaviruses.

Different strains may cause warts in different parts of the body. Warts can be spread from one location on the body to another or from person to person by contact with the wart. 

Symptoms: The main symptom is a fleshy, painless growth on the skin. Common areas affected include the hands, feet, and genitals. 

Treatment: It may include topical medication and removal through medical procedures. 

However, in terms of Ayurveda, a wart is formed when Vayu and Kapha combine on the skin. When Vayu predominates, pain and roughness develop. With Pitta's dominance, they look blackish-red. If Kapha is in predominance, they look greasy, knotty, or the same color as the skin. Kapha creates soft skin and Pitta causes hard skin. They combine when following incompatible therapies for instance ingesting milk and salt together, and cause warts.

Therapies - Externally lemon juice or tea tree oil is applied to warts daily for several weeks till it cures. 

Have a healthy life.
