Warts Specialists FAQ in Mount Pleasant, SC

What does it mean if a wart won’t go away?

Q: What should I do if a common wart won’t go away? A: If a wart does not go away after treatment with prescription and/or home remedies, it is recommended that you see a doctor to rule out other conditions and ensure that the most appropriate treatment is being used.

Do doctors still remove warts?

Treatment from a GP A GP may be able to freeze a wart or verruca so it falls off a few weeks later. Sometimes it takes a few sessions. Check with the GP if the NHS pays for this treatment in your area. If treatment has not worked or you have a wart on your face, the GP might refer you to a skin specialist.

Are HPV warts serious?

Genital warts are common and are caused by certain types of HPV. Genital warts can be annoying, but they’re treatable and aren’t dangerous.

Can your immune system get rid of warts?

Warts are almost always harmless for people with a healthy immune system. The body’s immune system often manages to fight the viruses over time, and the warts then disappear on their own.

How many sessions does it take to remove a wart?

To treat a wart, soak it for 10 to 15 minutes (you can do this in the shower or bath), file away the dead warty skin with an emery board or pumice stone, and apply the salicylic acid. Do this once or twice a day for 12 weeks.

Why am I suddenly getting lots of warts?

What causes warts? Warts are caused by an infection with the human papilloma virus (HPV). The virus causes an excess amount of keratin, a hard protein, to develop in the top skin layer (epidermis).

What is the lifespan of a wart?

Most often, warts are harmless growths that go away on their own within 2 years. Periungual or plantar warts are harder to cure than warts in other places. Warts can come back after treatment, even if they appear to go away.

Can your body clear HPV after 5 years?

The longer answer: Most people’s immune systems clear HPV out of their bodies within one to three years. But if the virus lingers for a long time, it can become a part of your DNA, and then potentially cause cancer several decades later. (HPV can find its way into almost every chromosome.)

What kills warts quick?

For common warts, look for a 17 percent salicylic acid solution. These products (Compound W, Dr. Scholl’s Clear Away Wart Remover, others) are usually used daily, often for a few weeks. For best results, soak your wart in warm water for a few minutes before applying the product.

Is wart removal covered by insurance?

The VBeam pulse dye laser is one of the newest and most aggressive treatments for stubborn warts. Treatments are usually not covered by insurance, but individual plans may vary in terms of coverage.

How can you tell if a wart is HPV?

Your doctor will examine you or take a biopsy (a sample of the wart) to see if you have genital warts. They might draw a blood sample to test for HIV and syphilis. Depending on the results, they may also refer you to a specialist for further testing.

What do dermatologists do for warts?

If your warts persist, are painful or if you have several warts, you should visit your dermatologist. There are many treatment options available for warts, including laser treatment or freezing, burning or cutting out the wart, among others.
