Specializes in Podiatry

Not really "roots": Warts don't really have roots. They strictly are confined to the epidermis layer of the skin. They can be treated in a great number of ways - freezing, acids & scraping, surgical removal, homeopathic treatments, etc. Se a doctor for all of your particular options.
