Plantar Warts in Hot Tubs: What You Need to Know to Stay Safe
Plantar warts are highly contagious and can be spread through skin-to-skin contact. Sharing a hot tub increases the risk of transmission due to prolonged exposure to warm temperatures and close contact with others. To minimize this risk, wearing sandals or flip-flops when using a hot tub, designating single-gender groups for shared use, and regularly cleaning and disinfecting the area can help prevent the spread of plantar warts. These precautions reduce the likelihood of transmission, making it safer to enjoy hot tubs while still being mindful of potential health risks.
