Periungual Warts
Warts growing around fingernails or toenails are called periungual warts. They may occur at the same time as plantar warts on other parts of the foot. Some periungual warts grow underneath toenails. These warts may cause abnormal toenail growth, cuticle damage or even permanent toenail disfigurement.
Periungual warts under toenails may be very painful and bleed frequently. A fleshy periungual wart may grow quickly and push the toenail up until it detaches from the nail bed.6Lipke, Michelle M. ‘An Armamentarium of Wart Treatments.’ Clinical Medicine & Research, © 2006.
