How Can Warts On The Fingers And Feet Be Treated?

Posted on Tue, 12 Dec 2023

Question: What is the best do-it-yourself method to remove warts between fingers on the foot?

Answered by Dr. Asmeet Kaur Sawhney (35 minutes later)

Brief Answer:

Lactic acid and salicylic acid solution

Detailed Answer:

Hi,

I would recommend you to apply a solution containing combination of lactic acid 16.7 percent and salicylic acid 16.7 percent on the warts once daily at night for 2-3 weeks.

This should help in clearing them.

It is a prescription drug and you need to see the doctor in person to get it.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

I asked for do-it-yourself, not going to the doctor

Brief Answer:

Lotion has to be applied by you only

Detailed Answer:

Hello,

This lotion has to be applied by you only.

I am sorry but there is no home remedy for treating warts.

All the other methods are minor procedures which are conducted at a dermatologist clinic.

This is the only topical medicine you can apply yourself for treating warts.

Hope I have answered your query.

Take care

Dr Asmeet Kaur Sawhney, Dermatologist
