Avatar f tn A plantar wart (also verruca plantaris or verruca) is a wart caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV) occurring on the sole or toes of the foot. Plantar warts are generally harmless and self-limiting, but should be treated to lessen symptoms (which may become painful)." Does that mean that anyone who has had a plantar wart has HPV and is contagious? Is this the same as genital HPV?
736128 tn?1232158671 There are many forms of treatment for plantar and other warts. Some warts, including plantar warts, disappear without treatment. Home treatments include salicylic acid and tape occlusion. A doctor can also prescribe prescription or over-the-counter medications to help heal plantar warts. A physician can also use an electrical current to burn a wart or laser surgery. Cryotherapy involves using a freezing liquid to dissolve a wart.

Avatar f tn I have very painful plantar warts at both feet for many years. I tried everything to get rid of them, nothing worked. Finally I had them digged out by a surgeon. It was a horrible procedure, it bleeded a lot and I had extreme pain for more than two weeks. They all came back, deeper and much more painful than before. Standing and walking on them is hellishly painful and after half an hour the pain is unbearable.
Avatar f tn Can a Plantar Wart be spread to someone, causing them to have either a wart on their face or body? Or are Plantar Warts spread as Plantar Warts? (If one touches the surface of an object that a plantar wart has touched, can one contract a wart on their face? or is it only possible to contract a plantar wart?
Avatar m tn Ive had them myself and compound W can really get rid of them. Just place the medicated pad over it and in about 2 days the acid has dissolved it and pops up leaving a hole. Really great stuff.
Avatar m tn Hello, The strain of virus causing plantar warts is different from the ones causing genital warts but the chances of transmission of HPV from foot to the skin of genitalia are always there although less than 1% chances are there. I hope it helps. Take care and regards.
Avatar m tn Plantar warts are found on the feet. The only way to know for sure if this is genital warts is to get it biopsied for a strain. I doubt any doctor will do that, but you can ask. If its in the genital area, its most likely genital warts.
1415174 tn?1453243103 Plantar warts grow on the plantar, or bottom surface of the foot. They usually tend to be found in areas of pressure such as the heel and ball of the foot. Plantar warts grow into the deeper layers of skin because of the pressure they receive because of their location. Warts may go away on their own but if it is causing severe pain then treatment may be needed to lessen symptoms. Keep your feet dry. Plantar fibromas are usually seen arising from the plantar fascia.
Avatar m tn t have other symptom like fever,body rash,lymp node....it almost two months with the warts without other symptom.I have read that the PLANTAR WARTS causes as below: A wart develops when a human papillomavirus infects the outermost layer of skin and causes the skin cells to grow rapidly. The virus can then spread from an existing wart to other areas of the body, People with weaked immum system is high risk to get plantar warts such as HIV infected person. My questions : 1.
Avatar m tn I had liquid nitrogen cryotherapy performed on the plantar surface on my foot to remove warts. Within an hour of the procedure a large blood blister formed (circular, 3 inch diameter, protruded 1/2 inch). The pressure and pain grew, and I went into the clinic the next day because of the pain. They made a small incision, but the pain and pressure was only slightly relieved. I waited 6 more days and the blister only grew. When I returned to the clinic, they sent me to a surgeon.
Avatar f tn html Based on the above, you should not be using that. It is meant for plantar warts. Genital warts eventually go away for most people in a few months but the virus remains in your body forever. They can return even if you never have sex again but the odds are very low.
Avatar n tn You used the topical salicylic acid for 3 weeks in total and salicylic acid is the first line of treatment for plantar warts but it is used for 12 weeks. Now since the pain is persisting even after topical salicylic acid treatment you can consult a dermatologist and opt for other treatment methods. One of them is cryotherapy which uses the technique of freezing the internal cell structure of the warts, destroying the live tissue. Up to three sessions may be required.
Avatar f tn I'm on my feet all day almost every day. The bottoms of my feet are pretty thick from it and occasionally the skin starts to peel (not shed like sunburn). Sometimes the skin peels so deep that it hurts and snags on my socks or the carpet so I have to cut the skin. Since this happened last, small spots on each foot that look like warts have formed. I've had a plantar wart before but these aren't painful, just a little tender sometimes.
Avatar n tn If a young girl has had plantar warts, does she need to get the hpv vaccine?
Avatar f tn I recently was giving my boyfriend a foot massage when I noticed that he had the tiniest little wart on his heel. (He has plantar warts every now and again). I washed my hands right after noticing the wart, but I’m a little concerned. Could his plantar wart possibly spread to my hand? And if I did happen to get a wart on my hand from this, would I need to worry about spreading that wart to other areas of my body, such as the genitals or mouth? Any answers would be greatly appreciated.
Avatar f tn One other thing. The bottoms of my feet have been getting warts as well in the past couple years. They appear after I have an outbreak in the genital area. My physician checked them and said they are not plantar warts and he didn't have an answer for me as to why I am getting them. He did not link the two, though I am. The warts on my feet are tiny, I can feel them under my skin, they burn and itch incredibly bad. Any one else have such a thing happen to them? Thanks!
Avatar m tn I have a plantar wart as a small bump under the skin on my sole, the skin is still smooth but You can feel the bump under the skin, there is no scaling or rash or anything like that, just a bumped surface under the skin. Would I be at risk of std if someone licks my foot and the area within the wart?
Avatar n tn Thank for your answer. I have had some bouts with plantar warts before, so I guess I'm more "prone" to have more outbreaks and take longer to heal but again thank you for your answer.
