Recalcitrant plantar wart?!
Question: Recalcitrant plantar wart.?
I have a very stubborn wart on the plantar surface of my heel. Its about 1.5 inches in diameter. Actually its about 4000 little warts all combined into this horrible large, painful mass. I have had it frozen 8 times, with aboslutely no success (I think it actually just made the wart angry). And I have been using 40% salicylic acid paste for over a year now. There is apparently no easy fix for this one.
I have read about several different treatments.... lasers, tagamet, bleomycin injections....
what in the world will help this wart.? Is there any podiatrists out there that have a magic cure.? at this point, I'm pretty much looking at amputation as a solution. I'm in pain, and my achilles tendon is actually shorter on that side from limping for the past 2 years.
Please help.
I can't do duct tape as I'm allergic to latex. So that's not an option.Health Question & Answer

I've had them on the bottom on both by big toes and the ball on the front of my feet, they were taken off surgically and cauterized, they finally quit coming back after about 4 or 5 times.Health Question & Answer
