I was diagnosed with Planters Warts today on both feet. My doctor said that if the cream he prescribed me didn't work, they would have to surgically remove them. My mother had the same thing 40 years ago, and said the shot they give you hurt the most.
If anyone has ever gone through this procedure and could give me a heads up on what to expect, that would be great.

Honestly, that's the only thing that works: the operation. They put me to sleep, so I couldn't feel anything. And no, the shot doesn't hurt. Best of luck. Hope I helped.
