EVALUATION
TREATMENT
EXAMINE, PaLPATE, PROBE AND TRIM/THIN NAIL OR TISSUE.
examine and most likely scrape the lesion to determine if it is a wart and not another type of skin abnormality.
rule out certain bone deformities that can cause a callus which looks very similar to warts.
Conservative treatment consists of salicyclic acid 50-70% or other types of cream application and debridement along with modifying hygiene habits.
we have a range of treatments to suit each individual
WE CAN USE Cryospray WHICH is designed to freeze tissue to around -59 degrees
