[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Waiting has worked for me.  I get them every few years and they always disappear on their own.

I'd wait out the summer, and then make a decision in the fall.  I agree that being off his feet after freezing, or trying to keep duct tape on in the summer would be harder than during the school year, so I'd wait for now, and if you decide you do want to treat (e.g. if it's spreading, or becomes uncomfortable, mine never have) do it during the school year.[/quote]

Please don't wait. Or if you do, make sure your kid isn't using public pools or water parks where they can spread it. [/quote]

Yes, if your kid is out somewhere barefoot cover them with duct tape.  Bandaids don't stay on.  [/quote]

My camp wouldn't let kids with warts participate unless they wore water shoes.

For my kids, one treatment with the beetle juice (cathardin) was enough to stop their warts forever and it's painless. For my oldest, she'd struggled for about 2 years. [/quote]
