Summer is a time for fun in the sun—playing outdoors, splashing in pools, and spending time with friends. But summer is also when warts become a common issue, especially for children. It’s best to avoid warts, but treating warts in summer is also easy with the right product.
It’s estimated that around a third of children or teenagers will contract warts, but the number drops significantly in adulthood. While they thrive in summer’s heat and humidity, the good news is they’re easy to treat.
In the summertime, children often visit places like swimming pools, locker rooms, and other public spaces where the wart virus thrives. Sharing towels, socks, or other personal items—whether intentionally or not—also increases the risk of exposure.
Kids love the freedom of running around barefoot, whether at school or during holiday activities. However, tiny scrapes or nicks on their feet provide an easy entry point for the wart-causing virus.
Unlike adults, children have immune systems that are still maturing. Combined with increased exposure to germs, their bodies may not always be able to fend off the human papillomavirus (HPV), which causes warts.
Warts are caused by HPV, which has over 100 strains. While they often disappear on their own, treating them can speed up the process and prevent spreading.
One effective at-home solution is Kroko WartFix, a tried-and-tested treatment for common warts. This flexible liquid forms a waterproof barrier over the wart, targeting it directly. When used consistently it will treat warts as per the instructions, the wart will start peeling off and will fall away.
