Viral Warts

Warts are harmless skin growths caused by a virus. They can grow on any part of the body, like on the face, along the forearms or on the finger. Warts have a rough surface on which tiny, dark dots can often be seen. On pressure areas like the palms or the soles, they appear flat. Warts on the sole (called plantar warts) grow inward from the pressure of standing and walking and are often painful.

They may bleed if injured. Warts are contagious, and may spread from one part of the body to another or to other children. There is no way to prevent warts.

Warts often disappear by themselves, especially in young children. This spontaneous disappearance is less common in older children and adults.

This can be done by surgery, laser ablation, electrocautery (destroying with a weak current), by freezing (with liquid nitrogen) or with chemicals like salicylic acid. The treatment to be used depends on the location and size of the warts and the judgement of the dermatologist.

No matter what treatment is used, warts occasionally fail to disappear. They may return weeks or even months after an apparent cure. Don't be concerned if a wart recurs; just consult your dermatologist for further therapy. The treatment may be repeated, or a different method may be used to get rid of the warts.

Liquid Nitrogen Treatment ( im using tis type of treatment.)
Liquid nitrogen treatment (cryotherapy) is the commonest treatment method for warts. Your wart and the surrounding skin can be treated with liquid nitrogen, a very cold substance..Liquid nitrogen, when applied to the skin, usually results in blister formation similar to a burn. The wart is lifted and it will fall off when the blister dries. You may experience some pain which should be easily controlled with simple pain killers
