Warts On Hands, Spreading All Over Hands. Creams Din't Work

Hi, i have warts on my hands and I ve tried a few methods to get rid of them but nothing is working. My doctor gave me a cream that was supposed to get rid of them but it did not work. Ive had them for 3-4 years now and they just keep spreading all over my hands! Ive heard that they go away by themselves eventually but they only seem to be growing and spreading. Please help!
