Is it contagious if a family member has flat warts?

Flat warts are a relatively common disease in our daily lives. They are mostly caused by viral infections and are external growths on the skin. They are prone to recurrence and generally affect the appearance. They need to be actively treated. They are especially common in young people. I believe many of my friends are also worried about whether their family members will be contagious if they have flat warts. Next I will introduce it to you in detail.

Flat warts are generally the size of a needle tip to a grain of rice, and are slightly round, oval or irregular in shape, with slightly raised flat-topped particles, and are light brown, pink or normal skin color. Flat warts are generally scattered, but some are concentrated in one place, some are fused together or distributed in strips along scratches. Generally there are no subjective symptoms, only slight itching. It often occurs on the face, forehead and back of the hands, and can also occur on the wrists and knees. Mostly symmetrical, in indefinite number. Sometimes it is associated with generalized warts. It can heal itself or relapse without leaving scars. Generally, there are no obvious symptoms in the early stage, but sometimes there may be mild itching. It's just because its early symptoms are not particularly obvious that it doesn't attract the patient's attention. This is often the reason why the best period for treatment is missed.

01 The early symptoms of flat warts are not particularly obvious, but they will gradually increase with skin infection. The course of the disease is very slow and may be self-contagious. Flat warts will be arranged in a beaded pattern along the lines of your own scratches. Therefore, it is very important to detect and treat it in time.

02 If a skin disease such as flat warts worsens, itching may worsen. The number of flat warts will suddenly increase, the color will become redder, and bulges will appear. It is more contagious at this time. Remember not to scratch. If you encounter this situation, you should go to the hospital for timely treatment.

03 Skin diseases such as flat warts are generally not easily transmitted to others. I'm only saying this in the absence of bleeding. If his flat wart is scratched and bleeds. And at this moment you happened to touch the bleeding spot. In this case, it can be transmitted to others. If it's just flat warts and there's no bleeding, then of course it won't be contagious to others.

Note:

Flat warts are not contagious to others unless they bleed. So the above is an introduction to whether flat pee can be contagious to others. I believe everyone will have a certain understanding after reading it. I hope patients can maintain an optimistic attitude and wish them a speedy recovery. Have a good mood every day.
