What are Warts?

Warts are growths on your skin that cause pain and discomfort from infection with HPV. They can pop up anywhere on your skin and can range from painless to mildly painful. The warts are usually benign and can be treated relatively quickly. If you think you may have a wart or want to know the precautionary steps you can take to prevent one from occurring, consult with our podiatrists, today! Our team at PRINE Health a podiatrist in Nassau County is here to assist you with the treatment you need, such as wart removal in Manhasset, as well as answer any questions you may have.

Plantar Warts

Plantar warts are small growths that tend to emerge on the heels, feet, or ankles. These warts can form ranging from one to a few and appear on dry surfaces, commonly within children. Since plantar warts are found on the feet, the pressure of weight-bearing may also cause plantar warts to grow inward beneath a hard, thick layer of skin, creating a callus.

In most cases, these warts are originally developed by an HPV virus. Viruses such as these can infiltrate the body through a weakened/open location, i.e. a small cut or wound. With proper treatment, plantar warts are typically taken care of through very little treatment and should not pose a serious concern for patients.

How Do Doctors Remove Plantar Warts?

For wart removal in Manhasset, our podiatrists in great neck at PRINE Health may suggest initially applying a topical solution such as a salicylic acid before opting for wart excision (surgery). However, this treatment method will likely take several weeks before full wart removal is attained. Aside from salicylic acid, other non-surgical options could include the infamous liquid nitrogen treatment. However, Dr. Hochstein is not a particular fan of using cryotherapy treatment for wart removal. Primarily, our podiatrists at PRINE Health will suggest surgery as wart removal is typically painless thanks to anesthesia and leads to immediate results. Please refrain from “bathroom surgery” as this can only yield negative results such as spreading or an infection.

Facts About Foot Warts

One of the more common conditions that we treat at PRINE Health is warts. Warts are caused by a virus that, when it penetrates the skin, causes a raised, fleshy bump to form. Warts can occur on the toes, bottoms or any other part of the foot. Warts are somewhat unpredictable. They can go away on their own but may recur. Sometimes they spread and form clusters of warts.

Plantar Warts

One particular kind of wart that often appears on the soles of the feet is the plantar wart. This type of wart is generally flatter and less fleshy than the traditional wart and usually has little black dots in the center. Although not generally harmful, warts can become painful or uncomfortable if they grow too large or are in a place on the foot (like the heel or ball of the foot) that receives excessive pressure when you walk or run. Despite their relatively low health risk, warts should be treated because they are contagious and can spread to other parts of the foot or other parts of your body.

Treatment

Our board-certified podiatrist in great neck at PRINE Health, will examine your foot and also take a complete medical history before determining the best treatment for your warts. Several options exist, including prescription medications, laser cautery, freezing, and surgical removal.

Prevention

There are steps you can take to lower your risk of being exposed to the virus that causes warts on the feet:
