I've had plantars warts come and go since I was a kid, and freezing has often worked for me (done by a dermatologist) but not always. My kids developed plantars warts and after their freezing didn't work, I resorted to duct tape. It's a bit of an effort, but it did work.
Right now I have a big plantars wart that I've had frozen 3 times and this last time I told the derm I'm done if this doesn't work. But now after reading this thread I'm going to try nail polish. |

OP here. Yes, we’ve been trying freezing in the office every 2-3 weeks since January. The doc aggressively scrapes first. It’s not working this. It’s worked in the past so I know it can but it isn’t this time. Even she agreed I need to try something else but she doesn’t do Beetle Juice so she gave me some referrals. It’s hard because it’s also spring sports season so DD doesn’t want to have to sit out too much.
Warts are such a bummer and it’s so strange that we don’t have antivirals for them the way we do other viruses. |
