Great question: There are many ways to treat plantar warts. Topical medication, excision, injection, cryotherapy and duct tape? It is best to see your podiatrist or dermatologist for evaluation and treatment.

Several treatments.: You can try over the counter wart removers, but be careful: i've seen them do more harm than good. Other options your doctor might offer include cryotherapy (freezing the wart), electrocautery (burning the wart), laser treatment, or several different topical chemical treatments. If the treatment is typically uncomfortable, your doctor can numb the area before proceeding.
