how do you get rid of a plantar wart?

I have a cluster of 3-4 of these on my foot. and I can't seem to get rid of them. Is there anything you personally have tried to get rid of these suckers that worked???

Separate topics with commas, or by pressing return. Use the delete or backspace key to edit or remove existing topics.

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

My husband had this problem previously. He started out treating the plantar wart with Compound W (a nonprescription preparation). It got better at first but not completely. Further treatment was necessary at the doctor's office. The doctor used cold liquid nitrogen to remove the plantar wart. The doctor also informed him that unfortunately, plantar warts very often reoccur. He's hoping they don't!

how long has it been since the doctor treated it? my research says since its caused by the HPV virus, it can be hard to get rid of sometimes. I did the liquid nitrogen in the doctors office... but the shot caused me great anxiety. so I'll need to be sedated before I try that again. I'm thinking they'll have to cut them off this time.

I have heard great things about putting nail polish on plantars warts. I am currently trying it. The nail polish is supposed to suffocate the wart, causing it to die. This site talks about it: http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/158261/how_to_remove_planters_wart_with_nail.html?cat=25
