Verrucae
Verrucae
Verrucae are common, and they are not always painful. However, if they are under a weight bearing aspect of the foot, they can be extremely uncomfortable to live with. Verrucae are part of the HPV virus (human papillomavirus) and are essentially a wart of the foot.
Verrucae in children do not always have to be treated. Generally, if they are not causing any discomfort, then we leave them alone. Appointment wise we start with our Verruca Assessment appointment, in which we will examine the potential verrucae and then come up with a treatment plan that is right for you.
