Plantar Warts

[Guest]

I am someone who has dealt with Plantars Warts for about 5 to 6 years. I think I have tried most everything that can be done by a doctor. Some of these include: freezing many, many times, acids, duct tape, laser surgery (1 time because it was so painful) I have had a chicken pox bacteria put in me to fight off the wart bacteria, and most of the over the counter wart fighters. My warts have spread all over my heal and I am getting so depressed about them. Does anyone have any help or advice that you can give me? I will try anything at this point. I have been to six doctors and none of them will do surgery on me because they say that the warts would most likely just come back. HELP!!!

The warts are caused by a virus not a bacteria. Hopefully the doctors put some sort of virus in you to stimulate your immune system to fight the viral infections that cause plantar warts. I have had 4 laser surgeries myself and the numbers are shrinking but I still have more than half of the ones I started with. It is a simple fact that doctors can do nothing to kill the virus and I am ready to go to a regional medical center to see what they can do. I sympathize with you.....I am in the same boat.
