【Why do "small warts" grow?】

1. Endocrine imbalance

When a person's endocrine system is imbalanced, hormones in the body lose their balance. At this time, the skin is most affected. Some people may suddenly develop small warts on their neck, especially when there is abnormal hormonal changes in females, with a significant increase in estrogen, making it easier to develop small warts.

2. Inflammation of lymph nodes

There is a large amount of lymphatic tissue around the neck, which has a detoxifying effect on the body's immune system. Healthy lymph nodes can prevent bacteria and viruses from invading.

Once the lymph nodes are damaged, the body's resistance and immunity may decrease. Toxins cannot be eliminated from the body in a timely manner, resulting in a large accumulation of toxins in the body. These toxins can cause damage to the lymph nodes and lead to inflammation, which may also result in many small warts on the neck.

3. Skin aging

Skin aging is an inevitable trend as people age. Many middle-aged and elderly people may suddenly develop many small warts on their skin, which is a phenomenon of skin aging and also represents the body gradually aging.
