Is there a Difference between a Plantar Wart and a Callus?

Callus formation on the soles of feet
Callus formation on the soles of feet

A callus and a plantar wart are two separate things. A callus develops when the skin thickens in an area of intense pressure. The skin’s outer layer is “dead,” yet it adds to the pressure beneath the foot, creating discomfort. A callus is treated with cushioning and the safe removal of dead skin, which is usually done by a foot specialist in Houston.

A plantar wart is the result of a virus that causes a verruca on the foot. A wart can appear everywhere on the body, but a “plantar” wart appears only on the bottom of the foot. While a wart and a callus may appear to be the same, they are treated differently. A wart grows into the healthy skin and is nourished by blood vessels. The objective of wart treatment is to remove the wart tissue while preserving the good skin and avoiding harm or scarring.
