Efficacious treatment of the common wart (verruca vulgaris).
A relatively benign lesion, the common wart (verruca vulgaris), probably occurs sometime during the lifetime of most individuals. Since it is usually self-limited, it may attract little attention unless it appears on the sole of the foot, adjacent to a fingernail or toenail, or somewhere on the face. Anyone with a serious interest in the etiology of the wart is directed to the many excellent works on this and related viral lesions. The purpose of this paper is to tell of one doctor's search for a reasonable, non-surgical, non-invasive treatment that would be acceptable to most patients.
