I had a wart that returned, and returned (scrached it off) and got larger all the time, went to a derm. he cut it off, and then he sparked it with a electrical device, (sounded like high-voltage, for 5 sec. or so) he said it would not come back when he did the removal that way. I has been almost a year an has not returned.
Just a note to say that the best cure for plantars warts is salt water, preferably from the ocean. I had them for 2 or 3 years, and had them burned, different things, very painful, then I went on an island for a couple of weeks in the summer and being in the salt water caused them to go away. I picked them up at a local swimming pool, was glad to get rid of them.
I have heard aspirin works, if you put it on the wart with a bandage.
I have a 17 year old daughter who has had warts on her finger tips for 3 years. She has been treated with liquid nitrogen several times and the warts keep coming back. Now they are spreding all over her finger tips, she treats them with over-then-counter salicylic acid 17% warts medicine. With this medication the warts are significantly reduced, however they reappear 2-3weeks later. Is there any oral medication that can be given to her to stop them from spreding? Or what else can be done?
Thanks Robert
