Assessed before treated

Every lesion is clinically assessed before any decision about treatment. Anything atypical or suspicious is referred for specialist assessment, not treated here. We may also send the lesion to histopathology.

What it is

Warts are rough, raised growths caused by human papillomavirus infecting the top layer of skin. Verrucas are the same thing on the sole of the foot, pushed flat by body weight. Many resolve on their own eventually, and over-the-counter salicylic acid or cryotherapy will clear a proportion — our pharmacy team can advise on those first, and often that is the sensible starting point.

Assessment comes first

The wart is examined before treatment, and anything atypical is referred for specialist assessment rather than treated here. Where pharmacy treatment is the more sensible starting point, we will say so.

Who this is for

  • A wart that has not responded to pharmacy treatment
  • A wart that is painful, bleeding or spreading
  • A verruca making walking uncomfortable
  • A wart in a visible position you would rather not have

How it works

Local anaesthetic, then curettage and cautery — the wart is removed at skin level and the base sealed. Because warts are viral, there is a recurrence rate even after complete removal, and we will say so before you book rather than after.

Frequently asked questions

Should I try a pharmacy treatment first?
Usually yes, and we’ll tell you if that’s the better option.
Can warts come back?
Yes; they are viral, and recurrence is possible even after complete removal.
Do you treat verrucas?
Assessed case by case; plantar sites heal more slowly because of weight bearing.
Is it contagious?
Warts spread by direct contact and via damp floors; covering them helps.

Still not sure if this is the right treatment?
