Hi!,
Welcome To HealthcareMagic forum,
podowart is the right solution you are using,but don't use it daily .Strictly speaking it should be applied by the dermatologist himself.It is used alternate days or once in a week only on the affected area.
Other methods are use of imiquimode lotion ,co2 laser,electro cuatry etc.
At times you might require multiple sessions for complete removal.
Kindly consult a competent dermatologist for best results.
