Plantar warts
Plantar warts appear on the sole of the foot and can be tender under pressure, where the weight of standing or walking presses on them. A podiatrist can examine the area, confirm what it is, and talk through the options that may suit.
How we assess and treat warts
The podiatrist examines the lesion and explains the available options and what each involves. The right choice depends on the wart, where it is, and your circumstances, and is decided together.
What to expect
Wart treatment often takes more than one visit. The podiatrist sets out the likely course and any aftercare so you know what is ahead.
When we use it
We confirm what the lesion is before treating it, then match the option to the wart and to you.
