NHS Choices Condition

Due to their distinctive appearance, warts and verrucas are usually easy to identify through a visual examination of the affected area. Your GP will be able to make a diagnosis.
If you have a partner, your GP may ask you if they also have warts, or whether other members of your family have them.
Although a verruca is a type of wart, the weight of your body may have pushed it into your foot. It may appear as an area of very white skin on the sole of your foot, and may have a black dot in the centre.
