Interesting footage..foot...age get it? Okay bad joke, back to the topic. So interesting footage from the Bad Skin Clinic. A lady attended the clinic for a Verruca she'd had over 10 years.
Not wanting to criticise, but from watching, it doesn't appear she's visited a Podiatrist sadly.
When it comes to Verrucas, we've heard all the 'alternative' treatments like banana skin, garlic, duct tape, vapour rub, tea tree oil..and in truth we CANNOT recommend them because there isn't enough researched evidence.
You can buy over the counter remedies like Bazuka, but we don't recommend that either because you have to be really careful with the application otherwise it damages healthly tissue around the Verruca.
Podiatrists are specialists in this area and they have a range of options such as freezing, silver nitrate, Verrutop, Swift, Faulkner's needling and Klaser to treat Verrucas. These are much more effective, but nothing is 💯 and you might have to try different things to find what works for you.
So if you want to book an appointment to get your Verruca treated, get in touch with us for a chat.
