Dr. John Ebner answered

Specializes in Dermatology

Yes: Plantar warts can become very large and very resistant to treatment if they are left alone. The are also very tender. It's better to get after it and treat it when it is relatively small and much easier to contend with. Good luck. See you doctor.
