Plantar Wart

Plantar warts are small, rough growths that develop on the soles of the feet, caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV). They often appear on weight-bearing areas such as the heel or ball of the foot, sometimes growing inward due to pressure, causing pain when walking or standing. Warts may look like thick skin with tiny black dots and can be mistaken for calluses. If left untreated, warts can spread and become more difficult to resolve. Warts can be contracted in warm, moist environments like public pools or locker rooms. At Uxbridge Foot clinic, we provide safe and effective treatments tailored to your needs, including debridement, topical therapies and other options to eliminate the wart and prevent recurrence, helping you get back to comfortable, pain-free movement.
