A member asked:
Last summer i had plantar warts. what's the best way to disinfect my summer shoes so i don't risk my warts returning when i begin wearing them again?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No.: First, we don't know virus would survive inside your shoes. Usually not. Second, no effective rx to "kill" the virus. So there is no way to "disinfect" the thing might not be there.
