Question Posted Thursday December 8 2005, 8:09 pm

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.

okay well when i went. the doc made me lie on my tummy foot in the air. he goes get ready and im like for what and he jabs this needle into the side of my big toe. then he burns some hole into my foot (after the skin/nerves numbed) and then cuts the thinger out. then he freezes the skin before bandaging. The pain stuff is supposed to last a few hours..though mine lasted all of one..soo GOOD LUCK

I had the same thing. They gave me solutions to put on it first, but it didn't work, so I had the operation done. 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.

i had platers warts on my foot once. i took the pumus stone and i used some kind of medicine on it...not a cream but some kind of liquid stuff idk..i went to the doctor a few times and he would put special stuff on it..between that, medicine, and grinding it with a pumus stone..it went away. i almost had to get it surgically removed but it didnt get that far. sorry i didnt answer your question, i just figure i would put in my 2 cents because i did have it for awhile. it was painful and the whole medicine and pumus stone thing was a hassle! good luck with everything
