I have often had verucas which I get treated and they go away. I have one now on base of foot that I have had cryo treated 4 times. NHS says they will now not do anything more for me, but it's still causing a lot of pain and stopping me from running. Is the solution to get it cut out on private? Any Advice please would be fantastic!?
Thanks.

Generally the treatments aren't hugely effective. They only work by aggravating your immune system sufficiently that it recognises the verucca and gets rid of it. That means that it's pot luck if it works or not. If you ask your doc he/she will tell you this. It also means that it's pointless to pay for more treatment.
If it is on the sole of your foot and is causing discomfort then use a small pair of sharp scissors to cut away the dead and hard skin. Then soak your foot and use a pumice stone to remove even more skin.
I did that though M.Ister W and mine got bigger!
It went away when it was ready. Its a virus that will run its course eventually. Salicylic acid worked up to a point....
costly though.
alternative, Faulkner needling...to stim te immune sustem
or electro surgical removal....radical, but successful . But the wound healing becomes an issue.
