About this deal

Verrucas are warts on the soles of the feet. They are the same as warts on any other part of the body. However, they may look flatter, as they tend to get trodden in. HPV causes too much keratin (a hard protein) to develop in the top skin layer (epidermis). The extra keratin produces the rough, hard texture of a wart. How warts spread Discontinue use and remove plaster if excessive discomfort or irritation is experienced or if sensitivity develops.

Verrucas can sometimes be painful if they’re on a weight-bearing part of the foot. Treating warts and verrucas To avoid catching verrucae, keep your feet in a healthy condition. Always dry them thoroughly after washing and if your feet are sweaty, treat them with surgical spirit; if they are dry, moisturise them with suitable creams or lotions, but avoid applying between the toes.

Patient does not provide medical advice, diagnosis or treatment.A common wart may be round or oval-shaped and feel firm and rough. It sometimes looks like a tiny cauliflower. Older warts shrank less: by 0.2mm less for each category of duration (0-3 months, 4-6 months, 7-9 months, 10-12 months, 1-2 years, more than 2 years). On balance it is usually only worth treating a wart or verruca if it is troublesome. For example, if it is painful or you find it ugly and conspicuous. What are the treatment options? There is no guaranteed cure, but some treatments can help to clear warts. The best chance of cure is in young people who have not had their warts for very long. If you have an illness that affects your immunity or are taking immunosuppressant medication, treatment can be less successful. Most verrucas will clear with time and can be left untreated if not causing problems. When deciding whether to treat plantar warts or not, the following should be considered: Salicylates should be given with caution to breast-feeding mothers because of the possible risk of Reye’s syndrome in nursing infants and there is no data on the use of topical salicylic acid in breast feeding women. Therefore the use of this product during pregnancy is contraindicated.

One study several years ago seemed to show that covering warts with duct tape gave a good chance of cure. However, studies since have found that this is not the case. The British Association of Dermatologists do not recommend it because they do not believe there is enough evidence that it works.Verrucae are most commonly seen in children, teenagers and young adults - largely those who use communal changing rooms. It is possible to develop an immunity against the virus over time but most people remain susceptible, although some more than others. How do I know I have them? Freezing warts may also be effective. Many GPs and practice nurses are skilled at this. You can also get private treatment with cryotherapy from podiatrists. Liquid nitrogen is commonly used. The nitrogen is sprayed on or applied to the wart. Liquid nitrogen is very cold and the freezing and thawing destroys the wart tissue. To clear the wart fully it can need up to 4-6 treatment sessions, sometimes more. Each treatment session is a couple of weeks or so apart.
