Plantar wart WILL NOT GO AWAY

[slang23]

Ok I have had this wart on the ball on my foot for years.  There are a few and now they are large and thick.  It must have roots an inch deep at this point.  I should have just let it be but I have seen about 10 doctors for it (derms and dpms).

I have tried
-Doctor applied acids
-Dozens of doctor freezings
-many self freezings
-Candida antigen injections
-Duct tape for months
-Aldara
-50% salicyclic acid (self applied)


The only thing that seems to be left is bleomycin which my doctor is unwilling to do.  She said I could be left with a hole in my foot.  She says the only thing she can think of is trying many candida shots (we only did 1 injection a week for 5 weeks - the standard) or do a combination of salicyclic acid (to thin the skin) and aldara (which may have had problems with absorption before).  

Does ANYONE have an idea?  has anyone tried bleomycin>  I would like to avoid simple/homeopathic stuff --- I think this is WAY beyond that

I've tried everything. On my 3rd injection of candid yeast. Maybe do bleomycin in 2 weeks. Worse than breaking a leg. I use to run marathons and now I can barely walk. Has anyone above with the bad cases of plantar warts found any success? Please say yes.............Thanks

I have had a small plantar wart the size of of pencil eraser for about 7 months.  At first i didn't know what it was and started growing out to the point where I would feel it when I walk.  I would scrape it down but I did not treat it and it would grow back in a repetitive cycle.  I got fed up and started looking for treatments.  I bought salicylic acid 17% liquid drops (duofilm) and a 40%salicylic patch (mediplast). I would alternate.  When I did not have time, I would cut out the patch to fit over my wart then I would put duct tape over it. I would keep it on for about 1-2 days. If I showered I would put a new patch with duct tape. After a few days, a layer of dead skin covered the wart. I would cut a circle around the wart with a scalpel and remove the dead skin (made sure to sanitized it with alcohol and burned the tip of the scalpel). Once I removed it, I would repeat the salicylic acid treatment with duct tape.  Eventually over a few weeks, I got deeper and saw a dark spherical blob. After several days of salicylic acid treatment, I took my scalpel again and cut around it. I knew I was close so I took a pair of tweezers and pulled at it.  I am not going to lie it hurt and it felt like pulling roots that the users mentioned and hurt more than cutting around it.  But, I was able to pull it out and a small hole was left.  I then put another treatment of salicylic acid and duct tape just to be sure that I killed any remaining leftovers of the wart.  It stung a little afterwards.  That is where I am at.  Hopefully, it is gone for good.
