A member asked:
I've had a smooth ingrown wart on the pad of my thumb for about 6 yrs. it is painful. is this a plantar wart? how could i get rid of it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No not plantar: Plantar warts are found on the foot not the hand. It could be a wart or a pyogenic granuloma which can be found on the hand or foot depending on the state you live in I would refer you to a Podiatrist or a dermatologist
