Suggest Treatment For Verruca

hi, i have a friend who has developed a veruca, which she thinks she has picked up from me. but she says she s having a very strong immune reaction making her ill. i know she is very sensitive but i cannot find any other references to a systemic reaction to verucas? can you make some sense of this. also i would like to know - how long does a veruca take to develop from infection? and how long can they live without a host? and can they be transmitted in a dry environment?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

Though persons react differently to illness, it is not likely that the veruca is responsible for systemic symptoms and signs.

She may want to be assessed to find another source for her symptoms.
This would require a visit to her doctor.

I hope this helps
