VERRUCAS Most of my patients with Verrucas have been infected by the virus for a long time; some have tried over-the-counter products and many will have seen their local GP or even a chiropodist but most treatments will have been unsuccessful and they still have the lesions on their feet.
Whilst most of them are not experiencing any physical pain some are suffering a lot of discomfort due to the fact that these lesions are most of the time on weight-bearing points and have a large build-up of calluses (Hard/Dead Skin Cells).
It is important to say that many of us feel both socially and psychologically, the need to treat their infection as they dont feel comfortable being barefoot (at home, in the gym, the swimming pool or even on holiday on the beach) and they are aware of the fact they could spread the virus to others (family members, partners or anyone in their gym).
Over the years I have aquired extensive experience in treating this condition and I have developed skills that enable me to offer excellent individually-tailored treatment.
A few facts about Verrucas: • Caused by a Virus (HPV). • They are warts localized on the feet. • They are mainly on the sole of the foot but can be found anywhere even close to the nail. • Contagious mainly in a moist/damp environment.
They can go away on their own without treatment (rare). • They can develop to a size that makes treatment extremely difficult. • No treatments are guaranteed 100% yet.
Most treatment will require serious commitment and patients can experience discomfort during the procedure, but I am proud to say that most of the time our treatment procedures are successful even when previous attempts at treatment have failed.
Here are the two most common treatment options, they both have pros and cons and which treatment is most suitable is decided after discussion with the patient and according to their clinical assessment : Cryotherapy: freezing technique. Dry Needling: Immune system response under local anesthesia.
