thank you for query.If the diagnosis of warts is sure.There are different modalities of treatment.Topical resins like podophyllin(podowart) has to be applied under precautions and supervision of doctor still such side effects do occur due to spread of the drug to normal skin.apin and dryness peeling will subside .If you are not comfortable with it you have Cryotherapy and cauterisation as other methods.You can Consult dermatologist and take appropriate treatment.You can get back to me for any clarifications with the photos.Dr Bharatesh D Basti
