I’ve just noticed a verucca on my 6 year olds toe! What the best thing to get rid? I have two other kids so don’t want it spreading around.

Following as my son has one and the ointment he’s been applying everyday for the last two weeks doesn’t seem to have made the least bit of difference.

When my DD had a verucca, the pharmacist said that it was best to just leave it alone. It's caused by HPV, and the best way to manage it is to let the body build up antibodies. Trying to remove it will stop this process, and the verucca might keep coming back.

Hi there, well we did the whole Duct tape thing and nail polish. It worked! Maybe it was a fluke but my chiropodist said it’s all to do with stopping the oxygen. The Baz…..liquid did absolutely nothing at all. Good luck 🤞🏻
