Built in 1982 and expanded in 1991, Markvilleâs name is derived from a combination of the names Markham and Unionville, communities that were considered less than cosmopolitan three decades ago.
Warts tend to be rougher, with a âwartyâ irregular surface whereas skin tags are usually smooth. Warts tend to be flat whereas tags are more like bumps hanging from thin stalk. While warts are almost entirely caused by human papilloma virus (HPV), tags are only sometimes associated with HPV.
The Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) is the cause of warts and is a viral infection of the skin. There are over 165 identified strains of HPV which cause warts such as genital warts, plantar warts and common warts appearing on the body. These frequently appear as cauliflower growths on the skin. Warts are highly contagious and spread through skin to skin contact.
