[QUOTE="Seacrow, post: 2292103, member: 420515"] I had 'verrucas' treated by a podiatrist. Because I'm diabetic, she didn't want to freeze the skin in case the feeling didn't return, and chose to 'burn' them out with silver nitrate. This is how I discovered I'm allergic to silver, the entire bottom of my foot peeled off with the dressing, leaving raw flesh. Not recommended. I suggest you try any new treatment on a small test patch to begin with. Regular soaking with Epsom salts may condition the skin so an over the counter remedy is pretty feeble against your warts. If you're not getting anywhere with removal, you should be able to access an NHS podiatrist. [/QUOTE]
