What Are The Symptoms Of Filiform Warts?

My left cheeck feels furry and has been for the last 4 months. Is it anything to be worried about? I have also thin warts on my neck over the last 2 years which i am going to see a dermitoligist about because freezing or solution hasnt worked and i think they are filiform warts. I am scared that the inside of my cheek could be the start of filiform warts as well? any advice? there is no visible signs only the fact that there is a circle spot that is not slipery and is a little furry, which i thought could of been a burn but its been 4-5 months now.

Hi.
Warts are more estetic problem, then real problem. But, anyway they should be removed. Those smaller can be removed by liquid nitrogene, but if you have bigger ones, then they should be surgicaly removed and sent to patologists. Just as precoution of malignant disease.

All the best
