What are these on my son’s foot..

[dontforgetme]

They came up over night. Not painful to touch.

They look like verrucas

Probably the start of a verucca.

Do you take him swimming? Public pools are the most likely place to catch them.

Yep verruca.... This is the best stuff I've found to get rid of them

We went swimming 3 weeks ago.. does that sound about right for when they would come out?

Fuck me, there has been so many verucca posts on my active feed lately and they have thoroughly given me the creeps.

Any tips on what to use please?

@OakElmAsh thank you!

Definitely Bazuka that verruca.

Timing could be anything from weeks to months, the virus loves damp wet environments.

Don’t worry, most kids get them and they’re easily treatable.

They look like they're quite new so should be easier to get rid of. You can put black gaffer tape over them to suffocate them as well as use bazuka etc.

Kids always get them. Yeah it could well be from swimming or PE at school.

Thanks all. Seems like veruccas are the same as nits for me, invoke instant panic mode!

Nail polish method:
file down
paint the verruca and surrounding skin
Do that every 1-2 days
eventually the verruca is suffocated & you file it off.

@twoboots1 Thank you for this, have just applied some to his foot. Won’t be able to get my hands on some bazuka until I finish work.
