Verruca Treatment

Verruca, commonly known as a wart, is a small, benign growth caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV) infection. It typically appears on the hands or feet and can be contagious. Understanding the causes, symptoms, and treatment options for verruca is important for effective management.

  Overview

Causes of  Verruca Treatment

Verrucae are caused by specific strains of HPV that enter the skin through tiny cuts or abrasions. The virus thrives in warm and moist environments, such as swimming pools or communal showers.

Symptoms of Verruca Treatment

  • Small, raised bumps on the skin with a rough, grainy texture.
  • Clusters of tiny black dots (clotted blood vessels) within the wart.
  • Pain or tenderness when pressure is applied to the wart, especially on the soles of the feet.
  • Discomfort or irritation when walking or using the affected area.

Treatment of  Verruca Treatment

This treatment involves freezing the wart with liquid nitrogen, causing it to blister and fall off. It may require multiple sessions for complete removal, and it can be performed by a healthcare professional.

It is advised to consult with our Podiatrist for an accurate diagnosis, appropriate treatment recommendation, and guidance on prevention strategies.
