Dermatology/WARTS/SCARS
Hello!
I have two questions.
1) I recently got two warts burned off the top of my hand. It left these two circles with a dark rim and a pinkish inside. My docotor gave me a bleaching product called Epiquin? I believe. Will these be scars for life? Anything else I can do?
2) Also, I got two more warts taken off my index finger but this time by using the agent that makes you blister. I believe it is called catharidim??? I got a little antsy and popped both blisters with a needle which I had burned with a lighter right before I used it (to sanitize). Now the blisters are gone but there is a raised pinkish sort of "harder" skin where the blisters where. Will these go away? I thought this treatment was not supposed to leave scars but will it scar because I used a needle and could have infected it? What to do???
THANKS SO MUCH! Im sick of having these ugly warts, then scars on my hands :-(
THANKS AGAIN

my friends have had warts removed and i've seen the scars it leaves behind. it DOES go away eventually (like 1 1/2 months)blisters usualy do the same thing.

neosporin works on scars for the infection just try poroxcide

Epiquin should help fade the circles. You might also try some lotion with cocoa butter and vitamin E.
Generally it's recommended that you do not pop a blister since it can open the skin to infection. Keep the area clean and dry. It should heal without a scar within a few weeks.

Some people scar more than others - for example, redheads tend to scar pretty badly - but in any case, scars from wart removal are very unlikely to last for the rest of your life.
It may take a few months for the scars to disappear, but they should be gone by the end of the year.
