Flat wart on nose for 20 years. About time it went.

I've had a small flat wart on my nose for about 20 years. Its not monstrous, but its there and I want it gone. I've had it 'frozen' by my GP a few times but this just seems to make it blister and go red for a week but its still there, though maybe a tiny bit smaller. Sometimes I pierce it and squeeze out the liquid within it (sorry) and that seems to do a similar job to the freezing; but again its still there. I've checked all the previous threads on here about warts, but have not found a solution. Any suggestions?

ask your GP for a referral to a dermo or if you can afford it go to a clinic like sk;n.
( not a typo- that's how they spell it.)

I had what i thought was a wart on my lipline which I had frozen and it kept coming back. saw dermo privately and he said it was a mole- had it chopped off, 3 tiny stitches and now you can't see a thing- no scar.
Cost me £500 :(

Had a bump on the corner of my nose that I could see out of the corner of one eye. Went to the gp who referred me to a dermatologist. Had it taken off, 3 stitches, cost me about ?80. A very tiny scar that looks just like a large pore. The injection to numb my nose hurt like hell, though.
