Laser Treatment for Plantar Warts

Although plantar warts may eventually clear up on their own, most patients desire faster relief. Common treatments include the use of topical or oral products , laser therapy, cryotherapy (freezing),  acid treatments, or excision.

Regardless of the treatment approaches undertaken, it is important that the patient follow the surgeon’s instructions, including all home care and medication that has been prescribed, as well as follow-up visits with the surgeon. Warts may return, requiring further treatment.

If there is no response to treatment, further diagnostic evaluation may be necessary. In such cases, the surgeon can perform a biopsy to rule out other potential causes for the growth.

Although there are many folk remedies for warts, patients should be aware that these remain unproven and may be dangerous. Patients should never try to remove warts themselves, as this can do more harm than good.
