Have a minor wart on neck, derm suggested freezing to treat in office. unsure if it's necessary. what are chances of infection from this procedure?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Procedural risk: The risk of infection here is minor. The best way to decide what to do is to assess the risk/benefit ratio. If you do not really see any value to removing this, do not do it.
