I had a wart on my knee. I tried ALL of the over-the-counter medications and freezing tools. They didn't work.

I checked a site and it said that you can soak your feet in hot water to soften the wart. Make sure that it's not TOO hot in spite of burning yourself.

If that doesn't help, then..

My mom took me to the dermatologist and they prescribed me a special cream. I tried the cream and after a week, it didn't really help that much. So, when I came back to the derm., she just froze it off. It's quick, and a little painful. Just be sure to grip the counter when he/she freezes it off to 'release' the pain. xD

Hope I helped!

You don't have to go to the doctor, you can freeze them yourself. That is the only way I have found that genuinely works. Buy some of the Compound W freezing stuff at the drug store and follow the directions.

I understand how you feel. I don't enjoy going to the doctor either. When I was around 13 my brother and I got planters' warts at the same time. In those days all a parent had to do was call the family doctor and tell him/her what was wrong and they'd give you a prescription over the phone. You didn't have to go in for something like this, but not today. It's all about that money today. We used some kind of ointment on our warts and they went away never to return again. It's my understanding that planters' warts are particularly hard to get rid of and are highly contagious. I will include some websites that say that they guarantee you should be able to get rid of the warts. If they don't work within the time that they say they are suppose to then I'd get my money back from them and go to the doctor. If you don't want to have them frozen off I think you can still get some kind of ointment to put on them. You might want to take a lot of Vitamin C too, aroud 500 to 1000 mgs a day. Warts are caused by a virus and Vitamin C fights viruses. I hope this helps.

i had one on the bottom of my foot

its really no big deal


i went to the doctor a they froze it off. it was a few years ago so i dont remeber it in detail but i remeber it being slightly painful. some people that get it on their feet are put on crutches just for a day so that i guess you don't damage the area but it nothing you need numbed for or anything
