Western medicine for this disease is called plantar warts. Warts are caused by human papilloma virus (HPV) infection and can be transmitted through direct or indirect contact. Trauma or skin damage is also an important factor for HPV infection. The course of warts has an important relationship with the body's immunity. The long-term mechanism of warts in relatively healthy people is not yet clear, and may be related to local or systemic immune dysfunction or immune tolerance.
