What Are Plantar Warts (Verruca)?
Plantar warts, or verruca, are small growths on the soles of your feet caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV). They often appear as rough, raised bumps with tiny black dots and can feel like you’re standing on a small stone.
Warts can be stubborn and painful, especially when they form on weight-bearing areas like the heels or balls of your feet. At Feet Forward Podiatry, we provide safe and effective treatments to help you get rid of warts and prevent them from spreading.
Common Signs of Plantar Warts

Tiny black spots
(often called wart "seeds")

Pain when standing or walking

Thickened skin over the wart

If you suspect you have a wart, early treatment is best to stop it from getting worse.
