How to Treat Warts

Discover the best solution for getting rid of your wart.Warts

While warts aren’t a cause for concern, we know that sometimes they can be a bit unsightly or grow in a spot that makes it rather uncomfortable or annoying. If this is the case, you may be wondering the best approach for getting rid of it. Our Encinitas, CA, dermatologists - Dr. David Thomas, Dr. Margaret Dupree, and Dr. William Burrows - have the answers you’ve been looking for regarding warts.

As you may be able to see from your local drugstore, there are quite a few over-the-counter wart removal products. You may find medicated patches, freezing products and salicylic acid solutions to help freeze or peel away the wart. Make sure to follow the directions completely. Those with diabetes or nerve damage may want to forgo these over-the-counter products, as they could irritate the skin and make the issue worse, and instead schedule an immediate appointment with a dermatologist to have the wart safely removed.

So, when should you visit a dermatologist about a wart? First and foremost, it’s important that you know that the growth is actually a wart and not something else. By coming in for a consultation we will be able to tell you definitively if you are dealing with a wart. If you’ve never had a wart before it can be difficult to figure out on your own and you’ll need a professional to diagnose it so that you know the best treatment options.

If the wart is in an awful spot, such as under your feet (plantar warts) or on your eyelid, chances are good that you want to get rid of this growth as soon as possible. We completely understand. Plus, since it’s in such as delicate area you may not want to try to treat the issue on your own. This is when you should come in for professional and safe wart removal treatment.

Here are some of the most common treatment options for removing a wart:

  • Liquid nitrogen (Cryotherapy)
  • Acid peel
  • Injection
  • Surgical removal
  • Laser therapy

Are you ready to turn to our Encinitas, CA, dermatology team to handle your wart problem? If so, we are happy to help. Turn to the skin care specialists here at North County Dermatology Center.
