Plantar Warts

Plantar Warts 

Plantar Warts are skin growths that appear as swelling on the plantar (the heel). While these are irritated and infected, however these are non-cancerous, and do not have any life-threatening or significant risks for the body.




DESCRIPTION
These appear to be thickened warts that visually resemble mould. Warts can appear in various sizes and areas, for example they can either appear in clusters, or spread out. If felt, they are quite lumpy and irritated- either painful or itchy. 


CAUSES
Warts on the plantar are usually caused by skin damage, such as injuries or contact. A few examples can be frequent contact with water (public swimming pools), scratching or touching them, even with other people's warts as well. However, there are two other facts about plantar warts: Firstly they can be a sign of HPV (usually a sexually-transmitted disease), secondly it is common for children to have warts particularly in their pre-teens to mature adolescence. 


DOES IT AFFECT THE PROCEDURE?
Although plantar warts are virus-based, however they aren't entirely contagious. So if a pedicure/massage is to be performed, the foot's condition could still be considered satisfactory enough. The worst scenario is that the person may receive discomfort or pain in the process. However if the client has HPV, diabetes or poor sensation, this could indicate a potential health hazard with treatment, and should require to seek professional medical care.

POSSIBLE TREATMENTS/ALTERNATIVE OPTIONS
Any foot problems should always be checked and treated by podiatrists, as they mainly focus on foot health and care. With plantar warts, they can be removed under a doctor's guidance. Methods include:
- Dry Ice (Cryotherapy) can freeze the warts, stopping any growth and eventually removing them.
- Topical applications, particularly any skin lotions using salicylic acid.
- Laser therapy

If the client doesn't want these treatments, then the best way is to leave the warts as it is. With time, it may be slower recovery, however it is still possible without any medical treatment.

  1. My son started with molluscum after contact with his
    cousin (who had it and we didn't know until it was too
    late). At first it was mild and then what seemed like
    overnight, it started to spread and the spots became
    larger and more painful. I was desperate to find
    something to help. We were told to let them run their
    course, but that wasn't going to work for me. I
