Year 12s: what will be the first way you research your future options? >>

Verrucas

I've had my verucca for multiple weeks, and it will not go away! We have used buzuka , tried rubbing it with a pummel stone etc.

I had one, and managed to get the top off, we pulled out all the black bits with a tweezer.

But it's not over!

What do I do, to get rid of this painful thing, and why does it start suddenly stinging, even though it's covered with a plaster ?

Just keep doing those things. Perhaps go to your doctor and see if there's anything they can prescribe or suggest that you haven't thought of.

I remember when I used to get verrucas all the time when I used to dance.

They're one of those things that just go away with time. All the chemicals in the world aren't going to get rid of them.

Go see a chiropodist. Over the counter stuff takes weeks to get rid of it, if at all. A chiropodist will get rid of it in one or two treatments. I find the cryotherapy treatment the most effective.
