Verruca-treatment Treatment Options
Medical & Non-Surgical Approaches
- Over-the-counter salicylic acid treatments can work for small or new verrucas if used consistently for weeks. Duct tape and home remedies have mixed evidence. Clinical treatments are usually faster and more controlled, especially for painful or stubborn lesions. Immune-based treatments like needling are sometimes used when destruction alone keeps failing.
