I have recently found that i may have plantar warts. i have had these for months now but assumed it was a callus. is there any way to rid myself of it?

Duct tape: There is actually good experience with covering the lesions with a strip of duct tape. Leave it on until is either gets messy or falls off, and then reapply another piece. This might take 6 weeks or so but you can gauge the effect at each change. Hopefully this will do the trick for you.
