Pharmacist's answer:
Warts on the feet, including plantar warts, can be stubborn and require different treatments. The treatment choice may depend on the size, location, and severity of the warts, as well as individual preferences and responses to treatment.
Here are some standard methods for treating leg warts:
- prescription drugs
- treatments with medical devices
- salicylic acid
- cryotherapy (freezing)
- occlusion with adhesive tape
- treatment in the doctor's office
- cantharidin
You must follow the specific instructions that come with the product or treatment you choose - you must be consistent and persistent in your efforts.

If you are unsure of the best course of action or if your warts are painful and stubborn, it is recommended that you consult your doctor about the next steps.
