Plantar warts (verrucae) are common, often stubborn viral infections on the soles of the feet caused by the Human Papillomavirus (HPV). They can be unsightly, sometimes painful, and contagious. At Fine Podiatry Clinic in Singapore, our experienced podiatrists provide professional diagnosis and effective wart management solutions, utilizing proven clinical methods like cryotherapy and targeted chemical applications to help you achieve clear, healthy feet.

Why Choose Professional Wart Management?

Opting for professional treatment at Fine Podiatry Clinic ensures:

• • Accurate Diagnosis: Distinguishing warts from other skin conditions is crucial for effective treatment.

• • Access to Clinical-Strength Treatments: Utilizing proven methods often more potent than over-the-counter options.

• • Expert Application: Precise treatment minimizes damage to surrounding healthy skin.

• • Reduced Risk of Spread: Managing the infection helps prevent warts from spreading on your feet or to others.

• • Personalised Care: Treatment plans tailored to the specific wart and individual needs.

What to Expect: Our Treatment Approach

Your journey to wart-free feet at our Singapore clinic starts with a thorough assessment.

1. Consultation & Diagnosis: Our podiatrist will examine the lesion, confirm it’s a plantar wart, and discuss your history.
2. Personalised Treatment Plan: Based on the assessment, we will recommend the most suitable approach. Our primary methods include:
   • • Cryotherapy: This involves the controlled application of liquid nitrogen (extreme cold) directly onto the wart. The freezing temperature destroys the wart cells containing the HPV virus. You may feel a temporary stinging sensation during application.
     • Chemical Application: We use specific, carefully selected topical agents applied precisely to the wart tissue in-clinic. These agents work by breaking down the infected skin cells over time, prompting the body’s immune response.
3. Progress Monitoring & Follow-Up: Warts are notoriously resilient. Multiple treatment sessions, typically spaced a few weeks apart, are usually necessary regardless of the method. We will monitor your progress closely and adjust the treatment as needed to achieve the best outcome.

Your podiatrist will explain the chosen procedure, what to expect during and after treatment, and provide clear aftercare instructions.
