Warts Specialists FAQ in Tinley Park, IL

How do I know if I have HPV warts?

Genital warts look like skin-colored or whitish bumps that show up on your vulva, vagina, cervix, penis, scrotum, or anus. They kind of look like little pieces of cauliflower. You can have just one wart or a bunch of them, and they can be big or small. They might be itchy, but most of the time they don’t hurt.

When should I be worried about a wart?

Warts are usually harmless. In most cases, they go away on their own within months or years. But if they spread or cause pain, or if you don’t like the way they look, you may want to treat them.

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.

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.

Should you go to a dermatologist or podiatrist for warts?

Podiatrists use a variety of treatments to remove warts more quickly. These include topical medications, cryotherapy, laser therapy, and surgical removal. If you have foot warts that are bothering you, please consult with a podiatrist.

What to drink to get rid of warts?

People have reported success removing warts using pineapple juice in several ways. One method is to soak the wart in pineapple juice every day. Another technique is to apply fresh pineapple daily.

Can warts spread in bed?

Common warts are not very infectious with intact skin, but can be passed by people from sharing bedding, towels or when people pick at their warts, bite their nails and do not properly wash their hands.

How do you stop warts from spreading?

Apply moisturizer and discourage nail biting and cuticle picking. The HPV virus can enter through these cracks and spread. Always have your child wear flip flops or other shoes in pool areas, public showers, and locker rooms. This helps them avoid getting warts and prevents them from spreading their warts to others.

How long does it take a dermatologist to remove a wart?

Wart removal surgery usually takes less than 1-2 weeks for the wart to blister and fall off after surgical removal.

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.

Can HPV warts show up 30 years later?

In rare cases, warts may appear years after the infection. HPV can remain latent in some people for years or decades before developing warts or cervical disease.

How do you fight the wart virus?

Salicylic acid: This can generally be found as a liquid, on pads or as a tape, and is applied directly to the wart nightly. Cryotherapy: These over-the-counter sprays, which freeze off the warts, are milder forms of the liquid nitrogen therapies you will find at the dermatologist.

What kills warts quick?

Salicylic acid. This is the main ingredient in aspirin, and it should usually be your first choice. Freezing. In this treatment, also called cryotherapy, a clinician swabs or sprays liquid nitrogen onto the wart and a small surrounding area. Duct tape. Other agents. Zapping and cutting.
