How Do You Remove Plantar Warts On Feet?
Warts are pesky skin lesions caused by viruses, which can make them difficult to eliminate. Your body’s immune system could kick in and kill your warts at any point. But if you do not want to wait for this to happen, you can take steps to get rid of them. Plantar warts often appear on the bottoms of feet and can be rather painful. However, they are easier to eliminate than many other types of warts. Choose a salicylic acid product with an appropriate concentration for your skin type. Generally wart treatments contain 17 to 40 percent concentrations of salicylic acid. Apply the salicylic acid to a small area on your foot to be sure you will not have adverse effects. If after 24 hours you have no adverse reaction (swelling, itching, red bumps), then it is safe to use the treatment. Soak your foot in warm water for a few minutes before applying the salicylic acid. If you soften your skin, the medication will be better able to penetrate the wart. Keep the treated area covered with bandages
