Question: are some warts not contagious?
Answer: More commonly, HPV causes warts to grow on the hands, fingers, feet, toes, knees and face. [See also: What's the Best Way to Treat Warts?] Studies have shown that common warts (i.e. not genital warts) can be spread through skin-to-skin contact. However, not all strains of the virus are highly contagious.
