How To Get Rid Of A Painful Plantar Wart

A plantar wart is usually located on the base of the foot but can also be found on the sides of the feet or heel. Plantar warts are singular and crusty or can be lumped together in clusters.Restrictive foot wear can cause very painful reactions from pressure on the bottom of the foot by flattening the wart and driving it deeper into the skin.

A plenter wart is distinctive from a callus, a  pale yellowish colored skin buildup. A plantar wart has small black spots on the top which are the capillary blood vessels.

This type of wart is a strain of the HPV virus which resides just under the skin, usually in the area of contact. All warts are a form of a begine tumor which isn't serious but be aware that the first signs of cancer are a change to a wart or mole.

Precautions

Wear "flip flops" in shower rooms, locker rooms and pool areas. Try to keep the feet dry in hot humid weather when wearing restrictive foot wear. Use a dry foot powder and change wet footwear as soon as possible. Improve immunity through healthy food choices.
