The virus triggers extra cell growth, which makes the outer layer of skin thick and hard in that spot. While they can grow anywhere you have skin, you're more likely to get one on your hands or feet and also on face & genitalia. Because each person's immune system responds differently to the virus, not everyone who comes in contact with HPV will get a wart.
