Previously, we've talked to you about plantar warts or warts you find on your feet. If you watched our video about warts, you know that they're caused by a virus. The virus is in the skin. It's not found throughout your system but are localized in the area where the warts are found. Plantar warts are contagious and should be treated.
Past Treatments for Plantar Warts
In the past, the methods for treating plantar warts have included freezing, burning, electrical treatment, and lasers. All of these methods attempt to destroy the wart and cause a lot of inflammation. In particular, chemicals cause very strong inflammation Over the counter treatments don't tend to work, because they’re not strong enough. While the stronger treatments work better, they can cause pain. You’ll also need multiple treatments. With these older methods the success rate is not where we would like it to be.
