Suggest Treatment For Plantar Wart On The Heel Of The Foot

My son, who is 11, has a plantar wart on the heel of his foot. He s had it for about 6 months. For the past couple of months he s been seeing a dermatologist and he has tried freezing it off 2 different times as well as putting blister beetle juice on it without success. He has also had it cut out twice. The 2nd time it hurt to put the lydocaine in his foot 2 deaden it but enough of it got in so the Dr could cut it out again. My son says that he doesn t want to have to do that again just because it hurt severely to deaden the area this time and he has a high tolerance to pain. I ve just recently started trying some herbal remedies. Is there anything else that we can try?

I really appreciate your concern, surgical excision is the best option and it can be done in general anesthesia if local anesthesia is not possible for patient afraid of this beside this nothing would work hope this information helps.
