Warts are caused by a viral infection in the skin. For treating warts, you can use over-the-counter medications containing Salicylic Acid, such as Compound W or Dr. Scholl's Clear Away. Apply the medication directly to the wart daily. Additionally, you can try cryotherapy with products like Dr. Scholl's Freeze Away Wart Remover. If the warts do not improve with over-the-counter treatments, you may need to see a dermatologist for further evaluation and treatment.

I'm noticing these rashes popping up anywhere on my body, mainly in the morning and evening. Theyre itchy, red, and kind of rashy like pithi dafad, and they tend to disappear after a while. Should I be worried about this, or is it something common?

It seems like you are experiencing a skin condition called Urticaria, also known as Hives. This condition presents as raised, itchy rashes that come and go. To help relieve the itching and redness, you can take Cetirizine (brand name Zyrtec) 10mg once daily. Additionally, applying a soothing lotion like Calamine lotion on the affected areas can also provide relief. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it is advisable to consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.
