About
疣 is a medical term for a wart, a small, benign skin growth. It is a phono-semantic compound following the standard structure for characters denoting ailments. The outer radical 疒, depicting a person leaning on a bed, serves as the semantic component for illness or disease. Enclosed within it is 尤 (yóu), which provides the phonetic element for the character's pronunciation. This clear composition has made 疣 a specific and unambiguous technical term for this type of skin condition throughout its history.
