Verruca's

Any advice on treatments?

Daughter has about ten between both feet but particularly on her toes.

I have frozen them several times over the last couple of months but they look horrific and will not seem to budge.

Duct tape did not work for us.

Help......

I think she needs to see a GP I may be wrong but I thought there was potentially an immune issue if someone has multiple verruca. My son has one that is easily treated with bazucca you need a professional opinion.

My son had 3 on each foot and the only thing that got rid of them was salactol. Be very careful not to get it on the healthy skin, it's strong stuff.

Thanks for replies so far. She saw the doctor a while back because she was driving me mad moaning about them and he said duct tape was a possible treatment. Not for us Angry

Any other options?

My daughter had loads (around 20) on and around her big toe. I took her to a chiropodist she gave me some powder that I had to dissolve in water it was purple, possibly potassium something?....

Anyway I had to soak her feet every night for two weeks and then when I went back she literally peeled the whole lot off with her scalpel. It was amazing!!

Another vote for Salactol. My son had 13+ verrucas and now every single one has gone. Yippee!

That’d be potassium permanganate holycity
