Can Warts In Scalp And Hands Be Due To Some Medication?

Hello, I am trying to find out if my scalp and hand warts could be caused by any medications I have taken? I am most concerned about the warts on my scalp because they have grown so large. The warts are brown, rough on the surface, but sore where attached to my scalp. These warts will bleed if I am not careful when combing my hair. (I did see a Dermatologist to have one removed last year...but now I have several that have popped up). Please note: I did not realize this was a pay response. please disregard my question. I will be seeing the Dermatologist soon.Thank you for response Yolanda
