Poor Hygiene
Let’s face it. No one enjoys talking about personal hygiene as it can be an embarrassing topic. Poor hygiene habits can increase your risk of getting face warts because they make it more likely that you’ll come into contact with the virus. Face warts usually appear anywhere on the face, including the lips, eyelids, or cheeks. In some cases, they may also appear inside the nose or mouth.
Face warts are commonly spread through direct contact with someone with the virus. This can happen when you touch someone else’s wart or something they’ve touched, like a towel, doorknob, or piece of clothing.
For example, if someone doesn’t wash their hands after using the restroom or before eating, they could easily transfer HPV from their hands to your face, or vice versa). The same goes for sharing makeup brushes or other personal care items with someone with HPV. Even if they do not have warts on their skin, they could still be carriers of the virus.
