>>I was talking to a friend of mine who's son has a pet ball python. She was telling me that they went to the doctor because he had developed a wart on his hand. After asking questions the doctor found out he had a pet snake. The doctor claims that the snake is the culprit for the wart. I am no physician. i have kept snakes for many years and never had a wart. Some people are prone to them who have never touched a reptile. Does anyone know if there is a direct link between contact with a snake and warts?

I would wonder where in class standing their doctor graduated from medical school. Sounds mean....but after almost dying because my doctor wouldn't let go of the idea that whatever was wrong with me was from one of my exotic pets.....I changed doctors one and two I have learned to pursue stuff. (I had a DOG tick borne disease BTW...cause gee, besides owning exotics I run a KENNEL and encounter a couple hundred dogs.)
