Plantar Wart Treatment

Plantar warts, also known as verrucas or verruca plantaris, are caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV). These hard, grainy growths usually appear on the heels or balls of the feet and can be painful, especially when walking or standing. Plantar warts can often be mistaken for corns, making accurate diagnosis crucial for effective treatment.
