Brief Answer:
Regarding warts

Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome to ask a doctor service. I have gone through your query and noted your concern.

Yes, that's possible. Our body may be able to mount an immune response against the virus causing warts and this may cause it to shrink and disappear.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if you need any more assistance.
