Traditional Verruca Treatment

Traditional treatment methods for verruca removal include the use of caustic agents such as acid, liquid nitrogen, a nitric-zinc complex or silver nitrate. With all these methods the podiatrist will apply treatment diligently and you will require follow up care to check on the progression of the treatment. These treatments require repetitive care due to the caustic action and the breakdown they can cause to the skin. All this will be discussed with you during your appointment and if used in the correct way can be an alternative method rather than the Swift treatment.
